Schmeichel witnessed the crashed and has told Sky Sports about how helpless he felt.“Unfortunately, [I remember] everything. Every little detail,” the goalkeeper said. “I had family over from Denmark and I gave them a little look around the stadium and the pitch – the helicopter was always a big attraction.“We waved him off, waved him goodbye, and we kind of just watched him go up. I’d seen him do it hundreds of times – it was a kind of ritual thing in the end.“You could just tell something was wrong, because it doesn’t normally stand still like that. And what unfolded, unfolded.4

“I ran straight out of the tunnel and round to that side of the stadium. People over that side of the stadium hadn’t seen what had gone on. So, I came sprinting out, shouting for people to call the police, one of our security guards saw me, ran after me.“We managed to get close – our security guard got closer than I did, and he (the security guard) tried to get in and do something.“But it was very evident from the heat that there was nothing anyone would be able to do. And yeah – it was horrifying, horrible, to be that helpless.”4

Kasper Schmeichel has opened up about the death of the Leicester City owner

Schmeichel has been a Leicester City player since 2011, a year afterSrivaddhanaprabha bought the club, and played a key role in their extraordinaryPremier League title win in the 2015/16 season.The 32-year-old reflected on how at home Vichai, and his family, made him feel at Leicester.He said: “If you look back at my career, I’ve had to constantly prove myself and be compared to others. Constantly having to prove I am good enough.“Then came a guy who said he believed in me from the first minute. He said he’d seen me play and just gave me the platform.“I’ve been here nearly eight years now and that says a lot about the stability here and the belief he had in me. Having gone from nine clubs to just being at one club, I was searching for someone who believed in me – he and his family did. “It’s very easy to be caught up in this world of money, fame and fortune. He is a guy who has done all that and doesn’t care about it. He only cares about helping people.“It just speaks to the man that he was. He didn’t need to buy a football club. That’s never a good business investment.“He wasn’t in it to make money, he wanted to give. He had a passion for the club, for Leicester, all that he did for the city – the donations to the hospital and such.“It was ownership done properly. If you’re a fan of any club, that’s the type of owner you want, the type of owner you dream of having.”4

Schmeichel also told Sky Sports a story about how Srivaddhanaprabha made a big impression on him early on in his Leicester career.“When I broke my foot I had to go down to London and we were playing against Manchester City in our first season back in the Premier League,” he said.“He came to the hospital, picked me up and flew me back in his helicopter to Leicester to watch the game with him. He didn’t have to do that, but he did.”
