Here we provide reports, and then we give our assessment and verdict on the information. On this occasion, three Leicester City stories have caught our eye. First of all, we have injury news for the Blue Army to digest. However, the update concerns the next opposition. An injury boost has emegered before the Millwall game. Will this development aid LCFC's ambition to return to winning ways?

In addition to that story, we have two more situations to assess. Second on the list is former Foxes star Jamie Vardy. The famed striker now plays his football in Italy for Cremonese of the Lombardy region. The ex-England centre forward is still making headlines in mainland Europe. Though he is yet to score for his new side. What's the iconic Fox been up to this week as we detail Vardy's regret?

Meanwhile an ex-Leicester star has made his debut for a new team at age 40. Wow. I am sure most of our readership will know who I am referring to here. And they will also most likely have fond memories of the once City star. Who is back in the East Midlands with village outfit Anstey Nomads?

An uplift for the Foxes ahead of Millwall fixture?

Here at Foxes of Leicester, we don't wish to see any athlete injured. Although, any potential advantage for LCFC, slight or otherwise, is welcomed.

Lions standout Will Smallbone unfortunately sustained a problem when competing against Stoke City. His absence in the middle may help Leicester.

Jaime Vardy disappointment

Cremo drew 1-1 with Udinese in their latest match. Vardy described his home debut as "special". Although he regretted not securing victory.

David Nugent is a City hero. He's come out of retirement to assist one-time goalkeeping backup Conrad Logan:

"Very odd! I didn't expect to come on to be honest," he said after his debut for Anstey. "Conrad's asked me to come along and help coach because one of the managers has gone on holiday. I said I'd come in and help; hopefully, the lads can learn from my experience.

"It feels a lot harder! I didn't even warm up! I stood on the sideline for 85 minutes and then came on for five. It's nice to be out there. That was my first competitive game since 2021, so it is tough."
