Watford’s Success to miss Leicester City clash with ruptured Achilles

Watford striker Isaac Success will miss Saturday’s Premier League encounter against Leicester City because of a ruptured Achilles, coach Nigel Pearson has confirmed.

The English topflight returns after over three months in a hiatus owing to the coronavirus pandemic.

Success, 24, who signed from Granada on July 1, 2016 in a record transfer fee, has played only five times in the EPL this term without a goal.
