Leicester City are set to be boosted by the return of frontman Jamie Vardy for this weekend’s trip to Arsenal. The Foxes were without their star striker for Sunday’s 1-0 defeat by Aston Villa and he is expected to sit out the Europa League clash with Zorya on Thursday evening as well. However, boss Brendan Rodgers says Vardy should be back for this Sunday’s Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium.
Brendan Rodgers said “Jamie will probably miss Thursday [v Zorya]. It’s a recurrence of a problem he’s had for a number of years with his calves. This isn’t serious so we’re hopeful he’ll be ready for the next league game.Caglar is more serious [than Vardy]. The muscle has come right off the bone so could be three months out. He’ll be a big miss for us. We got some game time from James Maddison and Dennis Praet (against Villa) but we’re having to piece things together a bit.”
