Brendan Rodgers has raged at a challenge that has left one of Leicester City's brightest prospects facing the best part of a year on the sidelines.

Will Alves, who the night before had come on for the first team in their 3-0 win away at MK Dons in the Carabao Cup, was on the receiving end of a brutal lunge from Wolves youth team player Caden Voice.

His team-mates realised the severity of the incident immediately as they ran in to confront the Wolves player. His leg appeared to almost do a stamping motion down on Alves' knee.
