Leicester working on Justin fitness ahead of West Ham | OneFootball

Leicester manager Ruud van Nistelrooy said Leicester are trying to get James Justin fit to feature against West Ham on Thursday.

Justin was subbed off in the 2-0 home defeat against Arsenal two weeks ago and missed the 4-0 loss against Brentford on Friday.

"We’re doing everything we can to get him fit for Thursday.

“That’s yesterday, today, tomorrow, it’s still a work in progress to get him fit for Thursday. There’s no news yet but we’re doing everything we can.” Van Nistelrooy said.

Leicester have lost three matches in a row and are inside the Premier League's relegation zone, five points behind Wolves in 17th.

Van Nistelrooy added that he was considering changes for the West Ham fixture if it felt right to him and his staff.

“If we think, as a staff, there’s a decision to be made to make a change, we’ve made a quite bit of changes... the centre-backs, the wingers, the No.6s, the full-backs," he added.

“It’s not that it’s change all the time, but if we feel it’s necessary to get the best results, yes, of course.”
