Leicester City have been struggling to get into gear in pre-season following defeats by Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.

them back on track ahead of the new season - after the first-team squad
were rewarded with £105,000 supercars.

fleet of 19 protonic blue BMW I8s - which cost a total of £2million
were seen outside the club's King Power Stadium on Friday.

Ranieri's side have been training ahead of the Wembley showdown with
Manchester United - where they look to add another piece of silverware
to their trophy cabinet.

Ranieri smiled: 'Some gifts are only for them? Not for me? I want to
speak with my owner.
'I am thinking about the match, not about the cars.'
