Danish football fan's dream to watch Leicester City realised

A football fan from Denmark said he made "special memories" during his maiden trip to watch his beloved Leicester City.

Andreas Gents has followed the Foxes since they shocked the world by winning the Premier League in 2016.

The 20-year-old who grew up watching FC Copenhagen, said many Danes adopt a foreign team but none of the "big six" English teams appealed to him.

He said finally making it to the East Midlands city felt unreal.

Mr Gents became hooked on the Foxes as a teenager during their captivating title charge under ex-boss Claudio Ranieri, whose team included Danish goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.
