It may still be hard for some to believe, but when Leicester City step out onto the pitch in front of their home crowd on Saturday, they will be crowned the champions of England.
The Foxes’ Premier League win won the hearts of many, as Claudio Ranieri’s boys will be handed the league crown in their weekend clash with Everton – the penultimate game for the 2015/16 season.
Ahead of their clash with the Toffees, several fellow Premier League managers came out to congratulate Riyad Mahrez and Co. for their unforgettable campaign, with the likes of Arsene Wenger, Mauricio Pochettino, and Manuel Pellegrini lavishing Leicester with praise.
“Congratulation to their chairman, to Ranieri, and to all the players because it’s a remarkable achievement,” said Le Prof, who is gearing up for a clash with Man City on Sunday.
Pochettino, who narrowly missed out on the title, said: “They deserved to win the Premier League. They were the best season.”
Pellegrini, who’ll pack up his bags and leave once the season ends, confessed: “I think Leicester deserve a lot of praise. I think they were a very good team, the best team in the year.”
