3 replacements for Walter Mazzarri at Watford

Claudio Ranieri

The majority of the footballing world felt for Claudio Ranieri when he was sacked as Leicester boss in February, although the Foxes’ upturn in form since then suggests that it was probably the right decision.

However, the Italian did guide the Midlands side to the most improbable of Premier League title successes last term, where else could Watford get a manager like that?

Ranieri is likely to want to stay in England given his efforts at Leicester, and Watford may well be able to offer him a route back into the game this summer.
