"I say goodbye to Ranieri," Cagliari said. "He achieved his last goal. He led us to stay in Serie A this season."

Cagliari, who has been at the helm of Ranieri since 2022, has accumulated 36 points with eight wins, 12 draws and 17 losses, finishing the season in 15th place.
Coach Ranieri said through his club, "I've decided to leave now. I hesitated because it was hard and painful, but I think it is appropriate to retire."

Ranieri, born in 1951, is widely known among football fans as a leader who brought Leicester City to the top of the EPL in the 2015-2016 season.

Leicester City, which stayed at the bottom of the league in the 2014-2015 season and managed to rise to 14th place, dramatically lifted the trophy for the first time in 132 years since its foundation, beating the "big club" that boasts capital power next season.

At the time, the British Daily Mail commented, "The greatest fairy tale of sport was completed as Leicester City overcame a one-fifth chance," touching and resonating with soccer fans around the world with a miraculous narrative.

However, the joy of winning the championship, which seemed like a fairytale, briefly failed to strengthen Leicester City's power like any other big club due to its lack of capital, and fell to 12th place next season.

Leicester City ultimately dismissed Ranieri during the 2016-2017 season, when its ranking plummeted. It came 298 days after he won the EPL title.

Coach Ranieri, who later returned to his home country of Italian professional football through Nantes (France) and Fulham (England), led AS Roma and UC Sampdoria.

He returned to the England stage in 2021 when he took the helm of Watford, but was dismissed after three months, and returned to Italy to conduct Cagliari.
