Encyclopedic overview
Kasper Peter Schmeichel (born 5 November 1986) is a Danish former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
Schmeichel began his career with Manchester City, but had loan spells with Darlington, Bury and Falkirk before he made his first-team debut in 2007; after a short period as starting goalkeeper, he went on further loan spells to Cardiff City and Coventry City. After falling down the pecking order behind Joe Hart and Shay Given, he departed for Notts County in League Two on a permanent deal in 2009, reuniting with former City manager Sven-Göran Eriksson, before signing for Championship side Leeds United a year later.
