Man Utd striker Martial: Why I'll always be grateful to Ranieri

Manchester United striker Anthony Martial has paid tribute to Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri.

The pair worked together at AS Monaco.

Martial said: “He took me to Monaco from Lyon. He's responsible for me developing and making huge steps, both physically and mentally.

“Ranieri worked a lot with me before I started playing regularly and I'm very happy for him that Leicester have won the title because he really helped me."

On his first season at Old Trafford, he said: “I didn't think I would get a regular place at my age. I am proud – but I will be better next season."
