Harry Maguire is in line to return to the Leicester side for Friday night's match against Newcastle after being granted leave for the 4-1 win at Huddersfield.

Brendan Rodgers allowed the England centre back last weekend off to spend with his partner Fern Hawkins and their newborn first child.

But Maguire has trained this week and is in contention to start for the visit of Rafa Benitez's team.
