Leicester City ace Harvey Barnes is losing his race to play at the weekend.

The winger was hoping to be involved in Dean Smith's first game in charge at the King Power Stadium.

However, The Mail states that Barnes has not recovered from a hamstring injury he sustained last weekend.

The Foxes would want to have Barnes back as soon as possible, as they have huge games up ahead.

They take on Wolves at the weekend, Leeds United on April 25th, and then Everton at home on May 1st.

The next few games could determine if Smith has any chance of keeping the Foxes in the Premier League.
