Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is confident Wilfried Ndidi has not suffered a serious ankle injury.
The Nigeria international was unable to play in the recent friendly clash with OH Leuven, but Rodgers is hopeful he will make the Premier League opener against Brentford on August 7.
"We've got one or two knocks," Rodgers told LCFC TV before the game vs Leuven. "Wilf's twisted his ankle in training a few days ago. We don't think it's too serious.
"It's a high ankle sprain, so he had a scan on it and it'll hopefully be okay.
"We've just looked after him really, he won't be involved at the weekend, but of course, hopefully next week at some point he'll be back training."
