Leicester City have today (Monday) completed the signing of goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel from Leeds United for an undisclosed fee
Kasper has agreed terms on a three-year contract with the Foxes and becomes the Club's second new acquisition of the day, following the arrival of midfielder Neil Danns
A Denmark Under-21 international and one of the Football League's most promising young goalkeepers, Schmeichel heads to Filbert Way for a third spell under Sven-Goran Eriksson, having previously worked with the Foxes boss at both Manchester City and Notts County

City Football Director Andrew Neville said: "Sven knows Kasper extremely well and regards him very highly so we are delighted to have brought him to the Club

"He has already made a big impression both domestically and internationally and is another player at a good age for our long-term objectives."

Schmeichel, 24, joins City after a year at Elland Road, where he made 40 appearances last season following a free transfer from Notts County in May 2010

Son of Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel, Kasper came up through the ranks at United's rivals City, making 10 first team appearances as well as enjoying loan spells with the likes of Bury, Cardiff City and Coventry City.

With first team opportunities limited at the City of Manchester Stadium, Kasper was taken to Notts County by Eriksson in August 2009. His performances during the following campaign saw him named in the PFA League 2 Team of the Year as the Magpies won the league title and were subsequently promoted to League 1

Out of contract and in extremely high demand, the young Dane joined Leeds at the end of that season and was quickly installed as United's number one

His move to City makes him the Foxes' third summer signing, following the arrivals of defender Lee Peltier and midfielder Danns

I can confirm that I couldn't give a **** whether or not he was on the list that SuperTwat sent to Sven-Goran Eriksson on Wednesday 4th May 2011.

I suspect somewhere in the world there will be.

Have you heard of aeroplanes?

They allow people to travel quickly from one place to another. So it means it's possible for someone could be in Denmark yesterday and be in Leicester today.
