Claudio Ranieri says that he is a long way from retirement despite turning 65 ahead of Leicester City's game against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Claudio Ranieri has expressed his desire to remain in football management for five more years.

The Leicester City boss, who celebrated his 65th birthday on Thursday, has enjoyed a coaching career at the top of the game since 1986.

He told reporters at his weekly press conference: "I'm an old man but I continue. I feel good. For me my job is my life, I want to carry on.

"When I started at 35 I said 'okay, at 50 I finish'. When I arrived at 50 I said 'why now? 55'! Five by five, step by step, 65, 70.

"Life is fantastic, every job is difficult, but it is important to be strong inside because you don't know what happens in life. You can go down but if you are strong you can wake up again."

The Foxes take on Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday.
