Former Leicester City captain Kasper Schmeichel has signed for Anderlecht.

Schmeichel joins Anderlecht in a free transfer after being released from his contract at Nice.

The 36 year-old goalkeeper has penned a one-year deal.

"Anderlecht is just a massive club," said the Denmark goalkeeper.

"Former team-mates from different places have always talked so highly and warmly of this place. It was something I really wanted to become part of."
