Claudio Ranieri commented on the rule of the French football league, which almost prevented him from leading Nantes.

Claudio Ranieri confirmed that in the near future he should head Nantes.

"Officially, nothing has been signed yet, but we are close to this. I have an agreement with President Nantes, "Ranieri said..

Nantu had to seek permission from the leadership of League 1 after the head of the French Football Federation Raymond Domenech tried to block the appointment of Ranieri because the Italian is more than 65 years old.

"I do my job with passion and professionalism, so the words of other people do not interest me. In addition, if it is Domenech. He was always a little strange ".

"I am convinced of the Nantes project. The club has a very strong academy, which released players such as Marcel Desailly and Didier Deschamps. There are many high-quality players and the president has high hopes for the academy ".
