N’Golo Kante has once again paid tribute to Leicester City’s former owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha who died in a helicopter crash straight after the game against West Ham in October.
The midfielder spent the entire 2015/16 season with The Foxes and helped the team to sensationally win the Premier League for the first time in their history.
“I was lucky to have known the Chairman. I was with Leicester City Football Club for a year and during that time I met a man who was always there for the players and their needs. He always had a smile on his face and was there to spur us on before games throughout the entire season. He was a very compassionate man.”
“He cared a lot about his players, he looked after our well-being and was very generous, always gifting us presents. He genuinely cared about the happiness and the togetherness of the team and helped us to achieve what we achieved – the Premier League title. He was a great man who was very successful. He brought a lot of success to Leicester City and without him I don’t think the club would be where it is today.”
The Foxes won their first match after the tragic events against Cardiff 1-0. Today they are playing their first home game after the helicopter crash at King Power Stadium against Burnley.
Khun Vichai’s name will be embroidered on the team’s match shirts during the first half. The second half shirts will bear the poppy symbol. #LeiBur pic.twitter.com/gyx1urxVlN
