LONDON. — Leicester City will discuss a possible contract extension with manager Claudio Ranieri at the end of the season as a reward for his role in the club’s maiden English Premier League soccer title victory, vice-chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha has said.
Italian Ranieri took over from Nigel Pearson on a three-year contract in July and Leicester are keen to offer him improved terms and tie him down to a long-term deal in the wake of his spectacular achievement.
“At the end of the season we will talk about that (extending Ranieri’s contract) with him,” Srivaddhanaprabha told British media.
“We will sit down together and when we talk about something, it’s long term, not just until September. I like people to work for me when they are happy and enjoy working with the group of people.” — Reuters.
