Brendan Rodgers who is the coach of Leicester City is not happy about the latest development claiming that missing Kelechi Iheanacho for their tie against Warsaw is a big blow

Brendan Rodgers' reaction

“We’ve had an issue with Kelechi so his documentation coming into the country wouldn’t suffice.

“Unfortunately he’s not available to play, which is a shame because he would have played in the game.

“The paperwork didn’t allow him to enter the country, which is unfortunate. We’ll have to look at that when we get back.”
