Danny Welbeck
The striker has reported no ill-effects to his 63-minute outing at Brentford last Saturday. He could start again when Leicester visit the Amex tomorrow. Welbeck’s pre-season was wiped out and his league campaign put on hold by a hamstring issue. Head coach Graham Potter brought him back into the XI earlier than expected against the Bees.
Graham Potter said: “He has been fine this week. He will definitely benefit from the game time. He played well. It was not the easiest of games for him to go into but he did it very well. We wanted to give him 60 minutes which is why he came off when he did. But he has trained very well this week and is available for Leicester. Danny wants to play as long as he can and I think he has a lot of time left. He wants to play, run and be part of the team. When that’s the case, you have a chance.”
