Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has said the club will manage Wilfred Ndidi’s return to action carefully, reports Completesports.

Ndidi is yet to make an appearance for the Foxes since picking up an injury in the 2-2 home draw against Burnely in September.

The Nigeria international was named in the matchday squad for last Saturday’s 2-0 home defeat to Arsenal but didn’t get to feature in the game.

Rodgers’ side take on Spartak Moscow in the Europa League at the King Power Stadium on Thursday and the gaffer was not definite about Ndidi making his comeback against the Russians.

“It’s certain he should be ready by the weekend,” Rodgers said.

“He has trained really well, we just have to be careful and mindful of the injury he’s coming back from.”
