Amartey weeps for departed club owner

Ghana international Daniel Amartey is sad following the demise of his club owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha over the weekend.

The Leicester City owner passed away on Saturday after his private jet caught fire near the King Power Stadium immediately after taking off before the Foxes 1-1 draw with West Ham.

In an emotional tweet on Monday morning, Amartey who had a broken ankle in the game was virtually in tears over the death of his boss as he also praised his generosity.

“I Came out of a successful surgery, but devastating news about the demise of our chairman. A generous man, to whom @LCFC owes everything. I’m sure, you’re in a much better place. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and the families of the victims affected by this tragedy” Amartey tweeted.

Srivaddhanaprabha tasked then Leicester coach Claudio Ranieri after both parties watched him playing for FC Copenhagen in a Europa League game.
