Danny Simpson pictured with Roberto Carlos as Leicester have warm-down session at Real Madrid training ground

Leicester trained at Real Madrid's training ground on Thursday morning after spending the night in the Spanish city following their Champions League quarter final first-leg clash.

The Premier League champions will have to overcome a 1-0 deficit in the return leg against Atletico Madrid next Tuesday, after Antoine Griezmann's controversial penalty was the difference at the Vicente Calderon.

Leicester opted to prolong their stay in Madrid rather than fly back to England immediately after the match on Wednesday night, with Craig Shakespeare taking his side through a warm-down session at the home of Atletico's rivals.
