Leicester City boss Rodgers laments Iheanacho and Ndidi absence for Legia Warsaw trip

The Super Eagles forward could not make the trip to Poland due to paperwork issues while the midfielder is suspended

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has described Kelechi Iheanacho’s absence for their Uefa Europa League clash against Legia Warsaw as "a shame".

The 24-year-old did not join the Foxes for the trip to Warsaw because of some issues with his travel documents which obstructed him from entering Poland.

Iheanacho started Leicester City’s first Europa League game of the season against Napoli a fortnight ago and he made an assist in the 2-2 draw at the King Power Stadium.
