"Foxes contributions: Signed from Leeds United in 2011, the son of former Denmark and Manchester United keeper Peter Schmeichel rose through the youth ranks at Manchester City and bounced around English football until landing with the Foxes. After several strong seasons that included a spot in the PFA English Championship Team of the Year (2012-13, with Wes Morgan) and promotion to the Premier League in 2013-14, Schmeichel started all 38 games in their title-winning season, conceding just 36 goals."
"- Leicester's win, revisited: Could a team repeat the magic? Where is he now? Schmeichel captained the Foxes to the UEFA Europa Conference League semifinals in his last season at the club in 2021-22 before bouncing to Nice in Ligue 1 and Anderlecht in Belgium, then joining Scottish giants Celtic in summer 2024. He is still the club's No. 1 at 38 years old, winning the league/cup double in 2024-25 to boot."
