Bombshell 😱: Russell Martin has just made a harsh decision regarding two Foxes stars, confirming that they trained with the main team but will not play in today’s game. You won’t believe which players he has made this decision about.

Two Leicester City players will be left out of the squad for tomorrow’s clash with Burton Albion, despite both having trained with the first-team group throughout the week.

The pair have been involved in training under Russell Martin as preparations continue, but neither is expected to feature when the Foxes take on Burton.

Their absence will be closely watched by supporters, particularly with the new season now underway and Martin continuing to assess his options.

Stephy Mavididi remains an important attacking option for Leicester, while Wout Faes has provided experience and leadership at the heart of the defence.

However, Martin appears keen to manage his squad carefully as he looks to build consistency and ensure his players are ready for the demands of a long campaign.

Both players have impressed Martin with their attitude during training, with the Leicester boss praising their professionalism despite being left out of the matchday squad.

Their decision to continue working hard and maintaining a positive approach will be welcomed by the manager, who is expected to make further changes as he assesses the strength and balance of his squad.

For Leicester, the Burton Albion fixture represents another opportunity for Martin to evaluate his players and continue shaping his preferred side.

Mavididi and Faes will now have to remain patient and wait for their next opportunity to return to competitive action.
