Esteban Cambiasso: 'Champions League dream is on for Leicester City'

Olympiacos midfielder Esteban Cambiasso has suggested that former club Leicester City could qualify for the Champions League this season.

The Foxes have made a strong start to the season under Claudio Ranieri, sitting third in the Premier League after 12 games.

Cambiasso spent a season at Leicester, helping the East Midlands outfit to avoid relegation last term, before joining Olympiacos.

When asked if Leicester could make the Champions League, the Argentine told UEFA's official website: "Football is made of dreams.

"I imagine that Leicester City have different aspirations than that this season, but dreams are there to be realised."

Leicester face Newcastle United on Saturday.
