Schmeichel upsetting Nice teammates and management

Former Leicester City captain Kasper Schmeichel is being criticised at Nice.

The goalkeeper, 35, joined the French side in the summer following 12 years at Leicester.

Schmeichel was left out of Nice's first game of the season and has now been dropped again after starting six matches in a row.

But according to RMC Sport the Dane's downfall has partly been his own doing as he arrived on the French riviera with a "very high" body fat percentage.

He has also reportedly wound up his team-mates by breaking club rules including turning up to meetings late and not sticking to mandated rest days.
