Leicester keeper Schmeichel allays Denmark injury fears

Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel has allayed fears over an injury he suffered during training with the Denmark national squad.

Initial reports from the Danish press had suggested that the 29-year-old suffered a minor muscle problem in his thigh during a training session with the national team.

However, he quickly allayed the fears by Tweeting: "Just to confirm: I have NOT withdrawn from the Denmark squad and I have NOT hurt my hamstring. I left training today (Sunday) as a precaution."

The news will be welcomed by Foxes fans who are relying on their star gloveman to be between the sticks for the final seven matches of the season as they continue to chase the Premier League title.
