Ranieri reacts to having superstars at Leicester City
– Leicester City are Premier League champions after Chelsea’s draw with Tottenham Hotspurs
– Ranieri speaks about his players and the squad optimization
Claudio Ranieri, the manager of Leicester City, has said there is no need for superstars ahead of the next EPL season.
Tottenham Hotspurs 2 – 2 draw with Chelsea on Monday night means the former – who are in second place – can no longer catch up with the Foxes at the top of the log. With two games left Leicester are seven points clear at the top of the table with Spurs in second place.
In what has been a really remarkable story this season Leicester have won their first ever top division title.

Despite the difficulty of the task awaiting his team next season Ranieri said: “We don’t need superstars, we need our players. I want to improve the squad without big stars but the right players.”
Ranieri also warned his players about any potential moves away: “We have won the title and we can do something good in the future,” he said. I will tell them, ‘If you go away, you don’t know what might happen. Maybe you go to a big team and you won’t be in the starting XI, then you will slow down.
“Here you are the king. Stay here one year more, then maybe you can go somewhere else’. That’s why it’s important to be careful in what you choose to do.”
Leicester City will be crowned 2015/2016 EPL champions on Saturday May 7, after their game against Everton.
