Leicester plan a special tribute

– Leicester City players will wear shirts with club owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha’s name embroidered on them when they play their first home match since the Thai tycoon was killed in a helicopter crash, the Premier League club said.

Vichai was one of five killed in the crash near the King Power Stadium after Leicester’s last home league match on October 27.

Leicester said they will pay tribute to Vichai with a video presentation when they host Burnley in the league on Saturday, while fans have also planned a march to the venue.

The players will wear the tribute shirts in the first half and shirts with a poppy emblem for the second to commemorate Remembrance Sunday. – Reuters
