Leicester midfielder Praet targets Serie A return: Maresca taught us so much

Dennis Praet has announced he's leaving Leicester City.

The Belgium midfielder admits he played only a bit-part role in their promotion-winning campaign.

He told HLN: "Well it's still a victory and a prize, I did my part even if I didn't play as many minutes as I would have liked. I was part of the team but not 100%, those who played every match felt feelings of euphoria different from mine."

Off contract this summer, Praet said: "Yes, Italy will always be ahead. I played three years at Sampdoria and one at Torino, my best years abroad. The tactics in Italy attract me a lot, this year I had an Italian coach like Maresca, he impressed me.

"The English players say they have never learned so much and I still have the Italian telephone number, I have never changed it... I would like to return to Italy, where I have always felt comfortable."
