Tottenham Hotspur’s 2-2 draw away to Chelsea on Monday night handed the title to the Foxes, who currently sit seven points clear of Spurs with just two rounds of fixtures remaining.

“[Claudio] Ranieri has achieved a miracle,” Mancini told La Gazzetta dello Sport. “An incredible victory achieved against all the odds that will probably never be repeated.”

Spalletti, too, joined Mancini in sending praise to Ranieri and his players.

“Leicester have proven to be a real team with this surprise victory,” the Giallorossi boss said.

After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, Ranieri’s side began the season with most people predicting another fight for survival. However, with their pre-season title odds being set at 5000-1, the Foxes managed to stroll to success with relative ease, wrapping up the title with two games to spare.
