Kasper Schmeichel leaves Leicester City for Nice after penning a three-year contract at the Ligue 1 side - seeing Foxes legend end a fairytale 11-year spell at the King Power Stadium

Kasper Schmeichel has completed his move to French club Nice after agreeing a three-year deal to bring an end to his 11-year stint at Leicester.

The Denmark goalkeeper joined the Foxes for just £1.5million in 2011 and made history for Leicester, helping them win the title in 2016 and captaining the club to FA Cup glory last year.

Schmeichel's departure leaves Danny Ward as the club's No1, though they are expected to seek back-up for the Wales international before the transfer window closes.
