Jamie Vardy celebrates after scoring Leicester City’s second goal against Stoke City at the King Power Stadium

Jamie Vardy is still a fortnight away from returning to action with only one or two of Leicester City’s injured contingent to return against Rotherham.

Vardy has missed City’s last three games with a knee issue and will not be seen for a while yet, with Enzo Maresca suggesting he may not feature before the end of the year. City are entering a busy festive period, with their fixture against the Millers the first of four games in 10 days.

City will have Dennis Praet available after illness kept him out of the 3-2 win over Birmingham, while Yunus Akgun could also make the cut after returning to training this week. Kasey McAteer and Marc Albrighton are not available though, and are on a similar schedule to Vardy.

There was one more big boost with Callum Doyle returning to training. The on-loan defender, who has not been seen since undergoing knee surgery in September, joined his team-mates for the first time this week.
