Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi doubtful for Chelsea clash

Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is a doubt for the Foxes’ Premier League game with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

On Tuesday, the 22-year-old sustained a knock to his knee in their League Cup quarter-final loss to Manchester City, although he managed to play for the entire duration.

Claude Puel, on Thursday, confirmed that he will wait until Friday to decide on the involvement of the midfielder in the tie.

“We will see tomorrow if he can play or not. It’s about his knee, he received a fall against him. He finished the game, but with pain, so we’ll see if he can participate,” Puel said in a pre-match conference.
