Danny Drinkwater takes on Jamie Vardy for pace during Leicester training as Foxes prepare for crunch clash with Burnley at Turf Moor

Catch me if you can! Not many Premier League players would fancy themselves in a footrace with Jamie Vardy but Danny Drinkwater gave it a go during a Leicester training session on Monday.

The two England internationals, who are preparing with their club-mates for the trip to Burnley on Tuesday night, were snapped in a sprint battle at the Foxes' Belvoir Drive complex.

Drinkwater - the deep-lying midfielder - might be the rank outsider in this two-horse race but he appeared to be giving Vardy a run for his money.
