Leicester have named their club foundation after the late owner following the tragic incident after the 1-1 draw with West Ham.

Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha was one of five people who died in a helicopter crash in the stadium car park.

The players and fans are now trying their best to raise as much money as possible for the foundation.

In a bid to bring in the big bucks, the high-profile couple will give one lucky fan the chance to enjoy an unforgettable experience at the King Power.
