Leicester dealt another injury blow as Harvey Barnes is taken off on a stretcher with a knee problem in game against Arsenal

Brendan Rodgers suffered yet another potentially crucial injury blow as winger Harvey Barnes was stretchered off against Arsenal on Sunday.

In what were worrying scenes for Leicester fans, Barnes appeared to over-stretch when playing the ball very early in the second half, and then collapsed in a heap on the floor.

After receiving treatment on the pitch, a stretcher was sent for and the 23-year-old was carried off the field looking in some pain with an apparent knee problem. He was replaced by Cengiz Under.
