EXCLUSIVE: Jannik Vestergaard is told to STAY AWAY from Leicester's squad and is training alone after he called Brendan Rodgers' selection decisions 'strange' in a Danish newspaper interview

Jannik Vestergaard is training alone after being asked to stay away from the Leicester first-team squad following an interview in which he was critical of boss Brendan Rodgers.

The Denmark defender, who has not started a league game since January 2022, has long been out of favour with Rodgers and has made only three appearances this season.

Now it is thought Vestergaard is working with a fitness coach on a separate pitch from his colleagues.

Vestergaard's interview with Danish newspaper EkstraBladet was published on March 1.

The 30-year-old said it was 'strange' that he had not been considered for first-team selection all season.
