Claude Puel: 'Leicester City still waiting on Marc Albrighton charge'

Puel: 'Foxes still waiting on Albrighton'

Leicester City boss Claude Puel has revealed that the club have still not heard from the Football Association regarding a charge for Marc Albrighton.

Last week, the governing body charged the midfielder with improper conduct after being sent off during the 5-0 defeat to Crystal Palace and the likelihood is that the player will receive more than a one-match ban, which has already been served.

However, Puel admits that there is still uncertainty regarding the punishment ahead of Wednesday's Premier League encounter with Arsenal.

At a press conference, the 56-year-old told reporters: "We wait on the decision on Marc. We did not have news and I hope he can be available for Wednesday for Arsenal.

"It is one of the things I have to manage because there are a lot of difficulties. If you ask me what the team will be for Wednesday I could not say."

Leicester head into the match having recorded just one point from their last five outings in the top flight.
