Shocked Ranieri is drenched with champagne by his players during press conference

That nice Italian suit is absolutely ruined.

Not that we think Claudio Ranieri will be all that bothered. The affable Roman was holding court in the post-match press conference when a few of his buoyant Leicester City charges decided to give him an impromptu shower.

The Foxes had just beaten Everton 3-1, and subsequently been presented with Premier League trophy, and so spirits were high. Their manager was ready to take some questions when Christian Fuchs and Kasper Schmeichel pounced.

They absolutely drenched their boss in a fizzy deluge of champagne, and it has to be said that the usually cheery Ranieri looked a little miffed at first. Although we suspect that was more shock than anything as he soon regained his genial demeanour.

Get used to it Claudio. Keep this talented squad of yours together and they’ll be many more joyfully damp days like these.
