"You'll never walk alone.
"I am so sorry to be writing to you under these extremely sad circumstances on hearing that your husband Ian passed away while visiting Liverpool for the game on Boxing Day. "At Liverpool Football Club, our fans are part of one big family and we understand that Ian was a huge Leicester City fan and the Leicester City family has tragically lost a truly loyal fan.

"Nothing that we say will recompense your loss but I extend my deepest sympathies and want you to know that all our thoughts are with you and your family."
