Leicester City are facing Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Sunday (2:15pm kick-off)
Facundo Buonanotte (concussion) is now available for selection again
Other players sidelined through injury are not in contention, Ruud van Nistelrooy revealed

The Foxes make the short trip across the East Midlands on Sunday, heading to the City Ground for a 2:15pm kick-off in the Premier League - our penultimate away fixture of the season.

And we are set to travel there with the Argentine midfielder, who is in contention to be involved after missing the win over Southampton last week, having been withdrawn at half-time at Molineux Stadium, following a knock.

The attacking midfielder in training.

“There’s one update on Facundo Buonanotte, who is back after his concussion against Wolves,” City’s Manager said on the Brighton & Hove Albion loanee. “He came through that process well and is available for Sunday.

“The other injuries that we spoke about ahead of the Southampton game are not available.”

As for 15-year-old Jeremy Monga, who is preparing to take his GCSEs later this month, the Dutchman revealed that the young winger remains part of the squad prior to the final run-in.

“He’s reporting every day and thankfully there is no school on Saturday or Sunday so he will be available to play for us on Sunday,” the 48-year-old added. “He’s a special talent.”
