Speaking after his team's 1-0 win, Cifuentes commented on the Englishman's display.
He said [RecordSport]: "There are a lot of positive things we can bring with us. There are a lot of things to improve, which is normal at this stage.
"I like the intention, the attitude, and the application of the team. I like that we wanted to be from day one, a team that is dominant and wants to use possession to attack. The timing of the movement and the rotations, everything will come.
"I like, as well, to see the young boys. I'm very happy with what I see from Jeremy, from Louis, from Evans, from all the young guys.
"And, as well, the application of the experienced players. I liked what I saw from Conor, from Jannik. It's an interesting mix."
Coady is under contract at the King Power Stadium until 2026, meaning a transfer fee would have to be negotiated for Rangers to land his services this summer.

49ers gifted Celtic transfer playbook and instant Rangers manoeuvre shows new rules are in effect
It has been a busy summer for the new owners of the Glasgow giants already Gordon Strachan reckons that 49ers Enterprises should conduct their transfer deals exactly like Celtic. And Rangers' new American owners may have already picked up that lesson amid ongoing talks over a sale of Hamza Igamane. Andrew Cavenagh and the investment wing of the NFL giants took charge of the Scottish Premiership side - with the 49ers doubling up on their ownership of Leeds United. And former Leeds' player and Celtic boss Strachan has urged chairman Paraag Marathe and the Elland Road decision-makers to follow Celtic's player trading model. Nicolas Kuhn 's £3million arrival in Glasgow's east end from Austrian side Rapid Vienna after a nomadic career turbo-charged his career before a £17.2million move to Como is the latest example of the player-trading model in motion. Discussing Leeds' chances in the Premier League after promotion, Strachan told OLBG: 'Ipswich spent a lot last year and went down, with Leeds there's no doubt they got in financial difficulties and they had to do a lot of work last year. 'I don't think Leeds United will put themselves in that position again because if you're the custodian of the club, the owners, you cannot put the club at risk. "I think the players that they have got to get cannot be on £300,000 a week. I think that there was a bit of that which happened a couple of years ago and there was definitely worries in the Leeds camp that they might have overstretched themselves. 'They will not overstretch themselves again. So that has to go down to player development. "If you look at Celtic, for instance, over the last four, five, six, seven years, they buy players in low, develop them and sell them for six, seven, eight times they come in. I think that's what's got to happen with Leeds." And the 49ers are currently trying to maximise the profit on Igamane - who arrived at Ibrox in a £1.7m move from AS FAR last summer. Rangers are standing firm on their £15million valuation of the striker amid ongoing talks with Lille - with the French side now reportedly "struggling" to get a deal over the line. Everton are among the suitors now showing interest with the door opening - with Udinese and Feyenoord on alert. Igamane could jolt the new look player-trading model into life - with Maccabi Tel Aviv striker Dor Turgeman understood to be among the contenders to replace the Morocco international.

Huge blow as Rangers told only a ‘FAIRYTALE OFFER' will be enough to seal key transfer target Dor Turgeman
His boss has told suitors exactly what type of offer will be required for his services TOP TUR-GET Huge blow as Rangers told only a 'FAIRYTALE OFFER' will be enough to seal key transfer target Dor Turgeman RANGERS transfer target Dor Turgeman has been labelled a 'football beast' by current boss Zarko Laztic. The Light Blues have been watching the forward for months now, but the Serbian Laztic has warned Rangers they will have to spend big to get their man. Advertisement 2 Dor Turgeman has been watched by Rangers for months Credit: Getty 2 But the move could rely on one, or both of Hamza Igamane and Cyriel Dessers being sold Credit: Willie Vass He was quoted saying Maccabi Tel Aviv would only sell the 21-year-old if a 'fairytale offer' was made, according to Sport1. The Israeli international bagged 20 goals last season as well as six assists, which put Rangers on high alert. Rangers already have EIGHT new faces at Ibrox, as well welcoming back four loanees, with Russell Martin making his mark on the squad before the Gers crucial Champions League qualifier against Panathinaikos. Turgeman is said to want the move to Rangers, but it all hangs on Rangers letting go of one or both of Cyriel Dessers and Hamza Igamane. Advertisement Lille are not giving up on the Moroccan, whilst Rennes and Everton have reportedly entered the frame for the striker. Rennes have already lost ex-Celtic hero Kyogo to Birmingham City this summer, and now look likely to lose star man Arnaud Kalimuendo so will need to bolster their front line and are considering Igamane, according to footmercato. David Moyes has lost Dominic Calvert-Lewin from his squad too, so he will also be looking to strengthen his Everton sides attacking options, and the same report claims Igamane is a target. It looked to only be a matter of time before Igamane joined Lille but Rangers held firm in their asking price. Advertisement The player is said to be keen on the move away from Ibrox too. He scored 16 goals in 46 matches for Rangers last season, notably a late winner at Celtic Park against their city rivals in the first derby with away fans since the lockout, which the Light Blues won 3-2. Rangers hero in with fans at Celtic game Nicolas Raskin and Mohamed Diomande also scored that day, with the midfield pair also attracting interest and could also net the Gers a hefty fee. However with Rangers Champions League qualifier just days away, it seems unlikely any big moves will happen before the key first-leg.

Rangers get 'fairytale' warning as £4m not enough for target
The Israeli striker is on the Ibrox club's shortlist as Russell Martin looks to add firepower having concentrated on defenders, midfielders and wingers so far. With Cyriel Dessers and Hamza Igamane potential leavers in this window, that would exacerbate the need to get forwards in and Turgeman is seen as an option. Read more: Maccabi Tel Aviv are believed to be reluctant to do business, especially as it would be difficult to persuade an overseas replacement to head to Israel given the current situation in the country. Now, their manager Zarko Lazetic has hinted it would take a mega offer to tempt them into selling. And he quoted the £4million previously reported as not being close to the mark. He told Sport 1: "He is a football beast, only a fairytale offer would tempt the club to sell the player. £4million will not be enough."
