Andrea Bocelli to honour Leicester City at King Power Stadium

World famous tenor Andrea Bocelli is set to perform at the King Power Stadium as part of Leicester City's title celebrations ahead of the league game against Everton on Saturday.

Foxes manager Claudio Ranieri confirmed in his press conference that his fellow Italian will perform as a personal favour to him.

“He called me one and a half or two months ago and he was so happy at what's happening to Leicester," said Ranieri.

“About singing, he said 'why not?'

“Then I give all my info to the club and they made all the arrangements and everything – for all of Leicester and the community.

“I met him a long time ago when was at his concert at Wembley. I met him, I was not sure if he remembered me."
