Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is expecting big things from Patson Daka.

The former RB Salzburg star has impressed in preseason and will face Manchester City in today's Community Shield at Wembley.

Rodgers said, "He is quick, he wants to run off the back line, he is a great finisher. We are going to need all our strikers – Patson, Jamie (Vardy), Kelechi Iheanacho. It's a long season, hopefully with lots of games, and not one of them will play every single game.

"You want to be able to maximise their talent – sometimes start them, sometimes bring them on.

"Patson gives us extra flexibility to do that."
