Kasper Schmeichel helping drive Leicester to success - Andy King

Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is one of the key "driving forces" behind Leicester City's success in recent years, says club legend Andy King.

The Denmark keeper helped the Foxes win a shock Premier League title in 2016.

"Kasper is full throttle everyday," King, who left Leicester after 14 years last year, told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club.

"If he concedes one goal in training he will go absolutely mental. He is the motivator in that group and makes sure players are driving standards. I have seen him lose it with staff if he feels the hotel quality before a match is not good enough, or with the kit man if the studs are too short.
