​Leicester boss Rodgers warned against signing Liverpool veteran Lallana

Brendan Rodgers has been warned about signing Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana in the summer.

The Englishman, who can play wide and through the middle, is likely to leave the Reds on a free transfer in the summer.

But Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier is not sure whether Lallana is a shrewd signing, given he is 31 and has suffered many injuries the past couple of seasons.

"I think a fit Adam Lallana, if you could guarantee that he is going to give you 30 games a season, would be a massive attribute to Leicester City," Le Tissier told reporters.

"He is a very, very good footballer.

"You are just a little bit concerned at the lack of games and amount of injuries he has had over the last couple of seasons.

"That would be the only concern."
