Claudio Ranieri "excited" by Leicester City Champions League journey

Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri has expressed his excitement at qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League, but insists that their faltering Premier League campaign needs more focus.

The Foxes have qualified as Group G winners with one game to spare after sealing a 2-1 win over Club Brugge in Tuesday night's clash at the King Power.

Leicester's European success is in stark contrast to their domestic form, which has seen them slip to 14th in the Premier League table.

Ranieri told BBC Sport after the Brugge game: "We're on another journey. I don't know where, but we're excited!

"We started well, we pressed, scored twice and kept possession. But after they scored we lost our way a little.

"Maybe we have been more focused in the Champions League. Now the group is won, important to come back in the Premier League."

Leicester will face Porto away in their final group game on December 7.
