It was anticipated that Kelechi Iheanacho would miss the remainder of the season, but he is now expected to return, giving Leicester City a significant boost.
Leicester has only earned one point in the three games since the striker’s thigh injury, which he sustained in the 1-1 draw at Leeds on April 25.
Iheanacho’s recuperation has gone smoothly, and despite initial concerns that he might miss the remainder of the season, the forward trained this week.
If Leicester is relegated, they might need to defeat Newcastle United on Monday to stay out of the Championship.
Interim manager Dean Smith commented on the team’s recent performance, saying, “The players were demoralized by the last couple of results, but before that there had been an upturn in performances.”
We have been focusing on improving the goals we conceded against Fulham and Liverpool.
I don’t have to show respect to the players I inherited. I have the option to criticize them, but I choose not to because of their strong work ethic.
The data I receive from our performance department is proof that it exists, in my opinion. The one thing lacking are crisp sheets.
We must be more difficult to defeat. The guys do care, but we need to get the fundamentals perfect.
