Leicester City have confirmed Wilfred Ndidi has suffered a fresh injury as the Nigeria international twisted his ankle during training.
The Super Eagles midfielder has been out of action for the Foxes since he limped off from his side’s 2-1 second-leg defeat by Rennes in the Europa Conference League on March 17.
He was expected to play a role against Belgian side OH Leuven on Saturday afternoon, nonetheless, manager Brendan Rodgers confirmed that the Nigeria international would not feature prior to the six-goal thriller while downplaying its gravity.
“We’ve got one or two knocks. Wilf’s twisted his ankle in training a few days ago. We don’t think it’s too serious,” Rodgers told the club website.
“It’s a high ankle sprain, so he had a scan on it and it’ll hopefully be okay.
“We’ve just looked after him really, he won’t be involved at the weekend, but of course, hopefully, next week at some point he’ll be back training.”
The 25-year-old missed Nigeria’s two-legged Africa World Cup qualifier play-off against Ghana – where the Super Eagles failed to earn a ticket to Qatar.
