Claudio Ranieri has no fears for future as Leicester stars are rested

Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri has dismissed any fears over his future, but admits the club’s owner is not happy with their form.

The Foxes chief has left Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez at home for Wednesday’s Champions League game in Porto as he looks to revive their Premier League season.

Leicester, who lost just three league games en route to a shock title success last term, have suffered seven defeats this season and are just two points above the relegation zone, but Ranieri is unconcerned about losing his job despite the dissatisfaction of chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha.
