Leicester are set to welcome back Jonny Evans from injury to face Wolves after announcing Marc Albrighton‘s contract extension.
Evans’ rapid recovery from a toe problem means he will be available to Claude Puel for the trip to Molineux.
The former Manchester United and West Brom centre-back picked up the injury in the loss to Southampton, with early indications he would be back at the end of February.
Daniel Amartey remains a long-term absentee after suffering a broken ankle in October.
Albrighton, after penning fresh terms until 2022, has expressed his joy at committing his future to the club.
“It was totally straight forward,” Albrighton explained. “Leicester offered me a deal and I was always going to sign it. I’ve had some good times here and hopefully I can continue to do so.
“When I first signed, I looked at the squad that was in the dressing room and the Club itself in terms of its fanbase and what sort of club it was.
“It was a family Club back then and it’s a family Club now. It’s something that suits me down to the ground. It really fit in well with me as a person and it’s the perfect fit for me.”
Provisional squad
Schmeichel, Ward, Jakupovic, Simpson, Chilwell, Morgan, Evans, Maguire, Pereira, Soyuncu, Fuchs, Maddison, Albrighton, Gray, Silva, Mendy, Ndidi, Choudhury, Ghezzal, Iheanacho, Barnes, Okazaki, Vardy.
