Bergwijn has not traveled to Greece with the squad for their clash with Panathinaikos amid claims he is set to join Leicester.

However, Farioli said: "We want players who are 100 percent fit.

"So he is now following an individual program. He once trained partially with the team. But we felt it necessary to take a step back so that it does not go too fast."

Leicester have offered €20m for the Holland international.
