Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers admits they need James Justin and Wesley Fofana back fully fit.

Rodgers feels the pair can take his team to a new level.

“They're both players who are very athletically strong, they defend forward, they can deny space, they're aggressive," the boss said this week.

“In JJ's position, he can get forward and you see how he does that, he's constantly running, and he's a great defender in a one-v-one situation.

“Wesley, for me, will be one of the top centre-halves in the world. He's 20 years of age but you see the impact he's made already in the Premier League, and having a player like that really takes your team to the next level.

“Having those two boys back will be huge for us."
