Swansea City winger Nathan Dyer ready to end injury nightmare ahead of facing former club Leicester City

Swansea winger Nathan Dyer prepares to meet former club Leicester having gone from Premier League title winner to being unable to kick a ball around with his children.

Dyer's fortunes over the last two years sum up the highs and lows of football, with a place on Leicester's memorable bus tour celebrations followed by a lengthy spell on the sofa.

Last February, just seven minutes into a game against Leicester, Dyer ruptured his Achilles tendon. The injury was so serious that surgery was required and he could not walk for nearly two months.
