Ndidi Set To Feature In Game Against Nottingham Forest, Brendan Rodgers Confirms Midfielder’s Availability

Leicester City headcoach, Brendan Rodgers has revealed that the Foxes could have Nigeria international, Wilfred Ndidi and Dennis Praet available for Monday’s clash with Nottingham Forest.

Ndidi’s international break was cut short as the Nigeria international returned to Leicester with a knock, while Praet has also been monitored over recent weeks with an issue of his own.

Forest visit King Power Stadium on Monday for the first top-flight encounter between the two sides since 1999.

“We had Wilfred Ndidi come back early,” Rodgers confirmed on Friday. “He’s looking really positive and trained this morning so hopefully he will be fine.”

“Dennis Praet had few days where he was struggling, but he came through the last few days well and looked good in training so we’re okay.”

The clash will feature a host of Nigeria internationals against each other, Iheanacho and Ndidi against Taiwo Awoniyi, Emmanuel Dennis.
