Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri hopes Antonio Conte can succeed him as a Premier League title-winning manager this season.

"As former Chelsea coach and as an Italian supporter, I hope that Conte can achieve the goal [of winning the Premier League]."

Ranieri is also relaxed about his own future in England, although he conceded past results can often count for little when it comes to the cut-throat world of football management.

"I hope to remain in England, I'm good here, even though in football one day you are in the stars and the next day in the dust, so never say never," he added.
