Rodgers: Albrighton Progressing Well
- Brendan Rodgers reports that there are no fresh injury concerns ahead of this weekend's fixture
- Leicester City midfielder Marc Albrighton continues to progress following a hamstring problem sustained in training
- The Foxes travel to Huddersfield on Saturday in the Premier League (3pm BST kick-off)
A trip to the John Smith's Stadium awaits Brendan Rodgers side on Saturday (3pm BST kick-off) on the back of three consecutive Premier League victories, having beaten Fulham, Burnley and AFC Bournemouth in March.
Manager Brendan Rodgers says that the Foxes have no fresh injury concerns, with winger Marc Albrighton stepping up his recovery from a hamstring injury which has kept him sidelined since February.
"He's progressed very well," said the manager of Albrighton. "It’s great to see him back there training and working.
"He's worked very hard to get back earlier than we thought. He joined the squad today (Thursday) and hopefully, in the next couple of weeks, he’ll get up to speed."
"He won't be available for the weekend, just short of football fitness. He’s done great to get back in before he was due.
"I’m sure he’ll play some part between now and the end of the season."
Rodgers, meanwhile, does not yet have a timeframe for the return of Daniel Amartey, who has been out of action since suffering an ankle injury in October.
“We're unsure if he'll (Amartey) return before the end of the season," added the Northern Irishman. "He is working hard, but we don’t have a timeline on that yet.
"Our team has been training very well. The spirit is high, and we’ve got another day to prepare. Thus far, everyone (else) is ok."
