Vardy in race to be fit for the Newcastle match: Jamie Vardy faces a race to be fit for Leicester City's trip to Newcastle this weekend. The 28-year-old England striker was still troubled by the hip injury that ruled him out of the defeat in Spain. He had been described by England boss Roy Hodgson as 50-50 to face France tomorrow at Wembley.

It has been a frustrating season for the former Manchester City striker, who has not featured for Valencia since a 3-1 defeat against Athletic Bilbao on October 3. Negredo criticised head coach Nuno Espirito Santo in an interview following a slow start to the season, although talk of a rift was played down.
