In a season that has been blighted by injuries, Leicester City midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi, is expected to be out of action for a few weeks after suffering a muscle strain.

Leicester reporter, Owynn Palmer- Atkins, wrote on his Twitter handle that the midfielder picked up the injury during training.

Ndidi was not included in the matchday squad as the Foxes were held to a 2-2 draw by Brighton & Hove Albion at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.

It has now emerged that the Nigeria international suffered an injury in training and will be missing in action for a few weeks.

“Brendan Rodgers tells me that Wilfred Ndidi has suffered a muscle strain in training and will be out for a couple of weeks,” Owynn Palmer- Atkins wrote on his Twitter handle.

The former Genk midfielder has suffered several injuries since last season and has struggled to stay fit during this campaign.

Ndidi has featured in 16 games across all competitions for Leicester City this season.
