Latest on James Maddison injury after scary withdrawal from Leicester match
Foxes of Leicester provides the latest update on James Maddison from Brendan Rodgers, following the midfielder’s scary withdrawal from Leicester City match.
Maddison had to win some of his fans around again this season, following injuries and a dip in form mirroring 2020/21. Yet in that campaign, as in this, the former Norwich City player also exploded with sustained excellent performances as well as a hot streak of goals and assists.
Rodgers chose to partially rest Maddison for the Randers match in the Europa Conference League. ‘Madders’ was used sparingly as a substitute to protect him for more significant or tougher upcoming fixtures. Though the England international suffered an innocuous appearing injury during the clash at King Power Stadium.
Maddison went down to the ground away from the ball with no opponents in his vicinity. Scarily, he seemed dazed and had his pulse tested by attending medical experts at the ground. Concern for Maddison was felt in the Blue Army.
Thankfully, after the final whistle the Northern Irishman offered promising details on the No.10. Yet he is a doubt for the Wolverhampton Wanderers contest on Sunday.
