Leicester City manager, Brendan Rodgers has ruled out Wilfred Ndidi from Saturday’s trip to Aston Villa.
Ndidi sustained an injury in training last month and has been sidelined since then.
“He’s been training well,” Rodgers was quoted by the club’s official website.
“He’s had a personal issue this week that won’t see him involved at the weekend but hopefully going forward he won’t be too far away.”

The 25-year-old has struggled to stay fit in recent times.
The former Genk star missed the latter part of last campaign with a knee injury.
He has already spent time on the sidelines this season due to injury.
Ndidi has featured in 16 games across all competitions for Leicester City this season.

Its becoming clear and clear that the SE cannot always rely on Ndidi like they did when they aways lean on the shoulders if Mikel and Sunday Olisah in the past.. I believe our light midfield in the absence Nididi due to injury prone, also contributed to our failure to qualify for the world cup. So it will be a good thing if the SE Coaches realise this and quickly get down to comb the earth to get us a more reliable midfielder in the mould of either Sunday Olisah or Mikel . The earlier this is done, the better because with the array of world class strikers at the SE disposal the SE may not still do well in the next AFCON without a competent midfield to back up
