Schmeichel booed by own Nice fans against Nantes

Nice goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel was booed by his own supporters in a recent league game.

The 35-year-old Dane left Leicester City to join Nice in the summer, but has struggled to acclimatize to life at the French club.

When his name was read out as a starter against Nantes, Schmeichel was booed in the stadium.

The name of the goalkeeper on the bench, Marcin Bulka, was loudly cheered by the same supporters.

Schmeichel has played 10 of 12 league games so far, but is considering a move away in the January, per L'Equipe.

The source states that Schmeichel has not behaved professionally at Nice since arriving.
