Leicester City could be without star midfielder Wilfred Ndidi for their clash against Chelsea this weekend.
It is reported by Goal that the Foxes are sweating over the condition of the Nigeria international, who has established himself as a key first-team player for the club in recent seasons.
Ndidi has been in impressive form under Claude Puel this term and is a mainstay in the Frenchman’s starting line-up.
However, Leicester could face Maurizio Sarri’s Chelsea side with the midfielder unavailable as he continues to work his way back from a minor knock to his knee.
The 22-year-old sustained the injury during the Foxes’ midweek Carabao Cup encounter with Manchester City. Following the match, manager Puel discussed his condition and said:
It’s about his knee, he received a fall against him. He finished the game, but with pain, so we’ll see if he can participate.
Chelsea will be desperate to continue in their winning ways after defeating Brighton 2-1 in the Premier League last weekend and Bournemouth 1-0 on Wednesday in the Carabao Cup.
