However, the 31-year-old is in contention for Saturday's Premier League match at Selhurst Park as Leicester look to return to winning ways after drawing with Fulham and losing against Spurs.

Defender Ben Chilwell is a doubt for the game because of a knee injury after missing training.

Harry Maguire did train on Thursday and will be available for selection once more, although Claude Puel says he is yet to decide whether the England defender will start.
