Jamie Vardy is progressing well and "on schedule" following his hernia operation, according to Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers.
The Foxes' top goalscorer underwent surgery last week, having been battling with the problem for months.
Vardy posted a photograph on Instagram on Thursday with the caption "recovering well" and Rodgers confirmed his striker was feeling good at his pre-match press conference ahead of Sunday's Premier League game against Leeds.

"Jamie is six days post-operation. Having been sore initially after the surgery, he's been in the gym today so he is working very well," said Rodgers.
"He has good mobility and is starting to run so he is progressing really, really well so we are on schedule to get him back playing.
"We are looking to get him back in training in upwards of 10 days so he is on course for that."
