Wesley Fofana could feature in Leicester's Europa Conference League last-16 second leg against Rennes, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
Fofana, who fractured his fibula in August, is back in training after testing positive for Covid-19 earlier in March.
The 21-year-old recently extended his contract with the club until 2027.
"Hopefully Wesley will play some part," said Rodgers, whose side hold a 2-0 lead from the first leg.
"We'll have a look at him and see if he can get some minutes in the game. He's had a serious injury and we're trying to manage his expectations.
