Claudio Ranieri: Leicester on the verge of ‘something special’

Claudio Ranieri says his Leicester side are on the verge of “something special” but warned they cannot take their foot off the gas in Denmark tonight.

Victory in Copenhagen will seal qualification for the last 16 of the Champions League. The Foxes are making their debut among the European elite and top Group G, five points clear with nine points.

The Italian warns they must not take qualification for granted. He said: “I understand everybody wants to win but for us it’s important to have everything in our hands. We can write a new chapter of the Leicester story but maybe it’s not [tonight]. It’s important to concentrate because Copenhagen are well-organised. I respect them a lot.
