EPL: Leicester City get Iheanacho boost ahead Newcastle United clash

Kelechi Iheanacho has returned to full training ahead of Leicester City’s Premier League clash against Newcastle United.

Iheanacho sustained a groin injury in the Foxes 1-1 draw against Leeds United at Elland Road last month.

The Nigeria international has missed the former Premier League champions last three games.

The 26-year-old has now returned to fitness for his side’s trip to Newcastle United on Monday.

β€œKelechi was in training today, and he’ll be in full training on Saturday morning,” manager Dean Smith told a press conference on Thursday.

β€œKels has ticked all the boxes he’d need to. We’ve probably had to press the fast-forward button, but it’s needs at the moment.”

Iheanacho has scored five goals and provided four assists in the Premier League this season.
