Out up to nine weeks Castagne will be out up to nine weeks after undergoing surgery for a bleeding issue in his thigh, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact This is a tough injury for Leicester and at the wrong time for them, given other injuries and absences. Castagne had started 12 of the prior 13 matches in league and UEL play and will have to be replaced. Marc Albrighton is likely to step in at right-back for an upcoming match or two, but the thought is that James Justin will be able to start shortly following his return from injury.

Status unclear for Saturday Castagne (dead leg) was not mentioned by manager Brendan Rodgers ahead of Saturday's match against Burnley.

Impact Castagne was a late scratch for last weekend's FA Cup and it's unknown if he's feeling better. The defender has been a regular in the XI this season and if forced to miss Saturday's match, Marc Albrighton is expected to slot in again at right-back.

Dealing with unknown injury Castagne hasn't been training and is a late test for Saturday's FA Cup match because of an unknown issue, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact Castagne has started 12 of the team's last 13 matches and had a minor injury a couple weeks ago, so it's possible the busy schedule is bringing up some issues. While it's not serious, Leicester are lacking tons of options and it's more than likely Castagne will be pushed to start at center-back in an upcoming match or three.

Makes bench against Man Cty Castagne (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Manchester City.

Impact Castagne is healthy enough to be in the squad Sunday, but given the heavy schedule, there was no reason to risk him. In his place, Marc Albrighton is starting at right-back, a position he's played before, including in the midweek Cup match against Liverpool.

Late test Boxing Day Castagne is considered a late test for Boxing Day because of an undisclosed issue, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact Castagne missed the midweek Cup match but Rodgers seemed to think he could be ready Sunday after returning to training Thursday. If Castagne can't go, it'll likely push Marc Albrighton into the starting XI again. Castagne had gone a full 90 in each of the last 11 league and UEL matches, so his absence would be another issue for the side.

Starts on Sunday Castagne is fit and in the starting XI for Sunday's match with Brentford.

Impact Castagne was a doubt in the buildup due to a hamstring injury but has recovered in time to start on Sunday. The wingback starts on the left flank for Leicester during their Premier League clash with Brentford.

Available against Brentford Castagne (hamstring) should be an option versus Brentford on Sunday. Manager Brendan Rodgers told reporters, "Timothy Castagne, who wasn't involved [at Spartak Moscow], should be o...

Impact After missing the club's mid-week Europa League matchup, it appears Castagne is ready to return to domestic competition. In his previous three outings, the defender recorded three crosses (zero accurate), seven tackles (three won) and six clearances. Given his limited offensive upside, Castagne shouldn't be expected to generate more than mid-range fantasy value.

OCTOBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Out as precaution Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers said Castagne did not feature in Wednesday's Europa League victory against Spartak Moscow as a precaution for a hamstring injury.

Impact Castagne will aim to be back for Sunday's Premier League clash against Brentford, but Luke Thomas could fill in for him again at left back if he's not fit enough.

Struggling to produce in early season Castagne has started just one league match this season, producing six crosses and 10 tackles in four appearances.

Impact Castagne has been used more in Europa League than Premier League, so that's something to monitor in the coming weeks. Neither Ricardo Pereira nor Castagne has looked overwhelming on the right flank, so either player could steal a firm role if they can show some quality.

Available against West Ham Castagne (eye) is available for Monday's trip to West Ham, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact Castagne has been training with a mask for a couple months and will be an option Monday. He may not be given a start in his first match back, though he should be ready fitness wise. Ricardo Pereira and Luke Thomas started at full-back in the opener.

Impact Castagne has been training for about a week following his facial reconstruction surgery, which means he's unlikely to start Saturday's opener. While Leicester are short on center-backs, they have plenty of full-backs following the addition of Ryan Bertrand and return from injury of Ricardo Pereira.

Pictured in training with mask Castagne was pictured in training Friday with a mask, meaning he should be available to play going forward.

Impact Castagne has been training with the team, but he couldn't play in matches because he needed a mask. Given the other injuries on the back line, Castagne may be asked to play in a deeper role, though the XI will be a bit more clear in Saturday's Community Shield match.

Waiting on mask to play Castagne is waiting on a special mask before he's able to play in a match, reports the Leicester Mercury.

Impact Castagne is fit and ready to go since he's been training, but he can't compete until he gets a mask. He suffered a brutal facial injury while in the Euros and while he's ready to go, it seems like he may have to play with a mask for the rest of his career. Once he gets the mask, he's expected to re-join the back three, as Jonny Evans still isn't healthy.

Out 6-8 weeks Castagne (broken eye socket) is expected to miss six-to-eight weeks after facial reconstruction surgery, according to Kristof Terreur and Kjell Doms of HLN Sport.

Impact Castagne was lucky not to have his career ended in a collision during the first group stage game against Russia on Saturday, and it's now likely he'll be ready for the start of the Premier League season if he's comfortable wearing a mask. Thomas Meunier replaced Castagne as the right wing-back during the first match and is likely to keep a starting role for much of the tournament.

Set for facial surgery Castagne is set to get surgery Tuesday for a fractured eye socket, along with a few other fractures, ending his time in Euro 2020, reports The Athletic.

Impact Castagne will miss the rest of the tournament, but the good news is that he should be ready for the start of the new campaign for Leicester City. It's a tough way to leave the tournament, but for Belgium, they still have a healthy Thomas Meunier to use on the right wing.

Subs off injured Castagne left in the first half of Saturday's match with Russia due to a head injury.

Impact Castange was forced off in the 27th minutes after colliding with Daler Kuzyaev. The right wing back was replaced by Thomas Meunier who will be the like-for-like starter if Castagne can't go in Belgium's next match.

Wins two aerials in 2-1 win Castagne had two aerials won, one tackle won and team-high 72 passes completed in Tuesday's 2-1 win over Manchester United.

Impact Castagne had a lot of play on the ball though most of his numbers came on a category that isn't relevant in most fantasy formats. The full-back has mounted one goal, one assist and two clean sheets over his past eight matches but the Foxes have been fragile in the back of late as well allowing 12 goals over the same period.
