Leicester club owner Vichai Srivaddadhanaprabha was killed in a plane crush on Saturday evening minutes after leaving the King Power stadium to watch their match against West Ham.
He perished along four others, two believed to be his staff members, a pilot and another passenger.
Vichai brought the club from Central England in 2010 and went on to turn the soccer world by beating odds of 5000/1 to win the Premier League title in 2016, in what amounted to a sporting fairy tale. He is a father of four and the owner of duty free giant King Power International.
According to witness, the helicopter had barely cleared the top of the stadium before it started to spin. It then hit the ground and burst into flames. Various people including players and coaches have paid visit and passed their message of condolences to the family of the berrieved including Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichal, Jamie Vardy and former super star Riyadh Mahrez. “Its been difficult, the boss was very special to me, Is pent four and a half years there. He was such a good person and I am very, very sad. That’s why I put my hands in the sky for him,” Mahrez told sky sports.
The coroner for Leicester said no date for inquests had yet been set.
