Leicester City have been handed a huge boost ahead of their clash against West Bromwich Albion this weekend with the news that Matthew Upson and Dean Hammond have been passed fit.

Foxes manager Nigel Pearson revealed that defender Upson and midfielder Hammond have resumed full training following their respective injuries and added that the return of the duo gives him selection choices to make.

"Matt Upson is training with us and Dean Hammond is in full training as well, so that is an improvement on last week," said Pearson.

"It means we go into this run-in with some nice selection issues."
