Premier League: Jamie Vardy calls on Leicester City teammates to honour memory of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha

Firstpost  

London: Jamie Vardy has urged his Leicester teammates to honour the memory of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha as they prepare to return to action following their owner’s shocking death in a helicopter crash. “You try to get in touch with everyone but no one was picking up their phones so that’s when I knew something was different.” Vardy, whose goals fired Leicester to the Premier League title in 2016, urged his teammates to produce a performance to honour Vichai. He wasn’t just a chairman, he was part of the squad itself and was always here and always giving you encouragement and wanting to be involved with the lads and that’s credit to him.” After the Cardiff game, coach Claude Puel will lead many of his squad to Thailand for Vichai’s funeral, which starts on Saturday in Bangkok and will last around a week. “We are a close-knit group and one big family and one of the main reasons for that is Vichai so it’s massively important.”
