WATCH: Ranieri close to tears after Leicester fans' tributes

The experienced Italian has gained legendary status at the King Power Stadium after leading the relegation candidate to the brink of a sensational Premier League title triumph.

It has been a whirlwind 12 months at the King Power following Leicester City's astonishing relegation escape at the back end of last season.

Following the appointment of former Greece national team boss Claudio Ranieri, Leicester was tipped to struggle once again, with odds of 5000-1 for the club to somehow lift the Premier League title.

However, the experienced Italian has proved all doubters wrong to lead the Foxes to within just one victory of a historic league success and win over a fanbase that provides nothing but positive energy for the team.
