Leicester City caretaker boss Adam Sadler explained the absence of Harry Souttar for defeat to Bournemouth.

Sadler says Souttar was in need of a rest.

He explained: “This was our third game in seven days. I felt the team needed some freshness in certain positions.

“In Harry's case, I know he's had a busy schedule of late. He had the international break a few weeks ago and this would have been his third game in a week.

"So it was purely about giving some freshness to the team and hoping that would be what we needed to have an impact on the performance."
