The full-back was stretchered off after appearing to twist his left ankle towards the end of Leicester’s 1-1 draw against West Ham after a clash with Michail Antonio. He appeared to catch his studs in the turf and twisted his leg. He left the field on a stretcher with his leg in a brace and needed oxygen.
