Jamie Vardy has hit back at suggestions he was in charge of the destruction of previous Leicester director Claudio Ranieri.
Ranieiri was sacked on Thursday only 24 hours after the 2-1 Champions League crush at Sevilla with a few reports saying a player revolt had prompted to the choice by the Thai proprietors.
Guardian director Craig Shakespeare, in control for the Monday Night Football conflict with Liverpool, has denied players were included and goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel disclosed to Sky Sports that the group were not counseled over Ranieri’s future.
Schmeichel was the primary player to pay tribute to the left Italian on Friday night, with captain Wes Morgan and Riyad Mahrez taking action accordingly on Saturday, while Vardy took to Instagram to furiously demand he was innocent.
The striker said: “I must have written and deleted my words to this post a stupid amount of times! I owed Claudio to find the right and appropriate words!
“Claudio has and always will have my complete respect! What we achieved together and as a team was the impossible! He believed in me when many didn’t and for that I owe him my eternal gratitude.
“There is speculation I was involved in his dismissal and this completely untrue, unfounded and is extremely hurtful!
“The only thing we are guilty of as a team is underachieving which we all acknowledge both in the dressing room and publicly and will do our best to rectify. I wish Claudio the very very best in whatever the future holds for him. Thank You Claudio for everything.”
It has ended up being a hopeless title barrier and with results conflicting with them at the end of the week, the Foxes have dove into the transfer zone having lost their last five Premier League amusements.
Ranieri discharged a passionate articulation saying his “fantasy has kicked the bucket” and he was back at the preparation ground for the keep going time on Saturday to state his last farewells to previous players and staff.
