Claudio Ranieri has been sacked as Leicester City Manager.

Leicester have sacked manager Claudio Ranieri, less than a year after the Italian led to the Premier League title.

Leicester show ‘big heart’ to keep hopes alive at Sevilla, says Claudio Ranieri

Despite a late goal from Jamie Vardy on Wednesday night that ensured they head into the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Sevilla with a 2-1 deficit, it is understood that the 65-year-old was informed of the decision on his return from Spain.

“This has been the most difficult decision we have had to make in nearly seven years since King Power took ownership of Leicester City,” said a statement from vice chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha. “But we are duty-bound to put the club’s long-term interests above all sense of personal sentiment, no matter how strong that might be.

“Claudio has brought outstanding qualities to his office. His skilful management, powers of motivation and measured approach have been reflective of the rich experience we always knew he would bring to Leicester City. His warmth, charm and charisma have helped transform perceptions of the Club and develop its profile on a global scale. We will forever be grateful to him for what he has helped us to achieve.

“It was never our expectation that the extraordinary feats of last season should be replicated this season. Indeed, survival in the Premier League was our first and only target at the start of the campaign. But we are now faced with a fight to reach that objective and feel a change is necessary to maximise the opportunity presented by the final 13 games.”

And, yet, Wenger is over 20 years and counting at Arsenal.

Leicester should be grateful to Ranieri for the Joy he has given to the club. One of the biggest sporting miracle was scripted by the very guy who has been sacked just under a year of attaining the EPL crown. As if Leicester will go any further from here. Another Blackburn Rovers in the making. Absolutely shocking.

Arsenal is a team without ambition.

No serious team in Europe will retain Wenger after years of failures.

Even Enrique that won treble and best coach award recently is under pressure in Barca.

Ancelloti won champions league, the next season he ws sacked.

Not unexpected. The performance of a team, whether good or bad, is solely the responsibility of the manager. Good luck to Ranieri in his future career.
