Leicester boss Rodgers confirms Tielemans knee injury

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers has confirmed a knee injury for Youri Tielemans.

Tielemans has been ruled out for an extended period after picking up an ankle injury during Saturday's defeat to Arsenal.

“Youri [Tielemans] will be out for six weeks," Rodgers explained after defeat to Blackburn in the FA Cup.

“He's done the ligaments in his ankle and so it'll not be before the international break that he's back."
