He was gifted a red ‘cornetto’ – the symbol of superstition in Italy – and asked if he’d come to replace Antonio Conte on the Azzurri bench.
“No, I am happy here and I have a three-year contract.”

“All English colleagues are so optimistic about Leicester, but can we confirm that we will not win anything?”
“Yes!”
