Dean Smith has told Leicester doctors to keep James Justin out of his sight as he knows that the fit-again England defender is unable to help them escape relegation.
Justin has impressed the Leicester boss in training since returning from an Achilles tendon injury suffered before the World Cup — but he is not in the Foxes’ Premier League squad.
When Leicester re-submitted their 25-man list in January, under Smith’s predecessor Brendan Rodgers, Justin was left out because they thought the injury would keep him out for the rest of the season.
