Andy King pays tribute to Claudio Ranieri

Leicester City midfielder Andy King admits that he is excited about what he can learn from Claudio Ranieri after an impressive start to the season.

Andy King has claimed that the Leicester City players are finding it easy to work under Claudio Ranieri.

The Italian has led the Foxes to eight points from their opening four Premier League games of the season, and King admits that the new manager has given him the confidence to find his best form once again.

"To have the confidence of a manager when he has signed other players in your position, but then made the decision to stick with you, has been huge," the 26-year-old told reporters.

"He has worked with some top, top players and is very experienced, so to learn from him can only be good for me.

"He has a very easy charm, and a wealth of experience of dealing with top players and top professionals, and the players are buying into what he wants to do."

King is likely to be involved when Wales take on Cyprus in a Euro 2016 qualifier on Thursday.
