Claudio Ranieri has signed a new contract with Leicester City ahead of the club's Premier League defence and Champions League debut.
Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri has signed a new four-year contract, the Premier League champions have confirmed.
Former Chelsea, Valencia and Juventus boss Ranieri, 64, enjoyed the crowning moment of a nomadic career last season when he masterminded Leicester's improbable title triumph in England's top flight.
Leicester begin their Premier League defence against newly promoted Hull City on Saturday and the likable Italian has confirmed his intention to stay at the King Power Stadium for the foreseeable future, with the Foxes' Champions League debut next month a particularly mouth-watering prospect.
