Town defender Fabian Wilnis has not suffered a broken foot as was feared against Crystal Palace but he could still miss the game against Leicester.

Wilnis took a knock on the foot during the first half of Town’s 2-0 defeat against Palace on Saturday and there was fears he had broken a bone.

 

Fabian: “It's lucky that it was at the top of my foot and not lower down because I think that would have meant a break, I took my boot off at half-time and my foot was bruised and swollen and there was no way I could carry on.

 

“The physio team say it's badly bruised and we will have to see how it progresses during the week.

 

“I have done some swimming but could feel it then although jogging is not really a problem. I can't kick a ball though. That is painful.

 

“Hopefully I will be okay for the weekend. I have just got back in the side and with the defenders we have here you know that if are out for a while, it can be hard to get back in the team.”
