Players’ reactions to Leicester City’s devastating day

This is a roundup of the entire squad’s tributes to their boss, Leicester City owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha. Following his tragic death on Saturday in a helicopter crash at the King Power Stadium.

As a Leicester City supporter and someone who works closely following the club, this weekend has been the worst in memory. Firstly, can we, as Foxes of Leicester and on a personal note, thank Mr Srivaddhanaprabha for everything he did for the club. A quite extraordinary man: fatherly, grandfatherly, philanthropist, human being, fearless, supportive, congenial, warm and always laughing.

Now, we shall rundown the players’ tributes to their leader in this dark time for Leicester as a city and a club.

Vicente Iborra signed in the summer of 2017; like all new recruits he had a now momentous photo opportunity with the great owner of Leicester City football club. Similarly to everyone else, Iborra explains how he was treated wonderfully by Mr Srivaddhanaprabha.

Wilfred Ndidi cites the owner traveling to Russia for the World Cup and watching him play. His post, accompanied by Sky Sports’ poignantly posthumous, altered black and white photograph.

Hamza Choudhury tells how the Thai united a city.

Harry Maguire was supported domestically and internationally by the boss.

Simply, “Thank you”, from a clearly devastated Christian Fuchs.
