Claudio Ranieri Is Visiting His Mother In Italy Instead Of Watching Chelsea-Tottenham
Photo by Laurence Griffiths/GettyThere’s a very good chance that Leicester City will win the Premier League title today, bringing The Greatest Story In Sports (™) to its anticipated (if somewhat anticlimactic) end.
And Claudio Ranieri will be one of the last people to know.
Chelsea host Tottenham later today. If Spurs lose or draw this game, Leicester will be handed the title. The entire city of Leicester is holding their collective breaths in anticipation of the result from Chelsea-Spurs. The streets are already emptying out. The team is heading over to Jamie Vardy’s house to watch the game. For the Leicester City family, tonight could be the biggest night in the club’s history.
But Claudio Ranieri is purposefully ignoring today’s game. Instead, he’s in Italy spending time with his dear old mum.
