Ranieri demands consistency from two-goal debutant Slimani

Islam Slimani enjoyed a fine two-goal display for Leicester City on Saturday, but Claudio Ranieri does not want him to rest on his laurels.

Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri urged Islam Slimani not to become complacent after he netted twice on his Premier League debut.

The striker joined Leicester at the end of the transfer window for a reported club-record fee of £30million and made an instant impact in his first league start, helping the champions to a 3-0 win over Burnley.

Ranieri was impressed with his new addition, but was keen to stress that Slimani must continue to score, otherwise they will have a "problem".
