The ambitious transfer window on the Cote d’Azur continues. Nice brought in the seventh reinforcement of this summer, and the latest signing of the French club is Kasper Schmeichel.There are no surprises, the transfer was announced a few days ago and it was only necessary for the clubs to agree on certain details. In the end, Nice will pay Leicester one million pounds fixed and a certain amount in bonuses, and Schmeichel will sign a three-year contract with the ‘Eagles’. The English club couldn’t have asked for more for their captain considering that he is 35 years old, as well as the fact that his contract expires in 12 months.🇩🇰 Viking coming!L’#OGCNice est fier d’annoncer la signature de Kasper Schmeichel. pic.twitter.com/P3TqKYppXg— OGC Nice (@ogcnice) August 3, 2022 “Viking coming”, the Nice’s marketing department announced the arrival of the experienced custodian on their official Twitter account.Interestingly, the Dane is Nice’s second signing among the posts this summer, as the French club previously bought Marcin Bulka from Paris Saint-Germain for 2 million euros. However, as the 22-year-old Pole defended in just one game in Ligue 1 last season, it was clear that he is a pledge for the future.##NAJAVA_MECA_6541713##Nice, on the other hand, needed someone ready to pull on the gloves of Walter Benitez who ended up at PSV Eindhoven, someone with significantly more experience. Schmeichel certainly has it, he defended in 284 matches in the Premier League, guarded Leicester’s goal in nearly 500 games, made 84 appearances for the Danish national team and played a very important role in the Foxes’ campaign for the title in the Premier League, i.e. trophies in the FA Cup and the Community Shield…He spent 11 years at the King Power Stadium, having previously played for Leeds, Notts County, Manchester City, Coventry, Cardiff, Falkirk, Bury and Darlington. Now a new challenge awaits him, for the first time outside ‘the Island’…After 11 years with #lcfc, Kasper Schmeichel has joined Nice, ending his incredible spell with the Foxes 💙#ThankYouKasper— Leicester City (@LCFC) August 3, 2022
