Danny Drinkwater: "We're here to stay"

Leicester City midfielder Danny Drinkwater says that the players intend to build upon their unlikely Premier League title triumph.

Danny Drinkwater has insisted that Leicester City have no intention of falling away after securing the Premier League title.

The Foxes have defied pre-season odds of 5,000-1 to become the 24th different club to claim English football's biggest prize.

However, rather than rest on their laurels, midfielder Drinkwater has stressed that the playing squad now plan to "push on".

"It's a bit surreal. We've made a lot of dreams come true," the 26-year-old told Sky Sports News.

"It is a brilliant time to be involved with the club. We're here to stay. We're not going to drop off - we will push on."

Leicester's previous highest finish in the top flight was second in 1928-29.
