Ndidi, Iheanacho pay emotional tribute to Khun Vichai


By Akeem Lawal
Nigeria internationals, Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho joined other Leicester City players to pay an emotional tribute to Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha at the opening of a garden in memory of those who perished in the King Power Stadium helicopter tragedy.


The Super Eagles duo with team mates and emotional City fans gathered on the site of the helicopter crash on Sunday.

“Paying our respects to a great man 💙#theboss always in our hearts,” Ndidi wrote on his Instagram account.

The crash, which happened one year ago, claimed the lives of five people - the club's then chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, his employees Nusara Suknamai and Kaveporn Punpare, passenger Izabela Roza Lechowicz and pilot Eric Swaffer.


The tragedy devastated Leicester City fans and left much of the city, and those involved in the world of football, in shock.
