Amartey makes EPL debut for Leicester

Daniel Amartey Daniel Amartey

Ghana defender Daniel Amartey has been handed his first English Premier League start as he has been named in Leicester City's starting line-up against Norwich on Saturday.

The centre-back, who joined the Premier League leaders in the winter transfer window from Danish giants FC Copenhagen has not played for the Foxes since his move at the end of January.

Coach Claudio Ranieri has now named Amartey to make his Premier League debut during Saturday's match against Norwich.

The Ghana international replaces Danny Simpson in the Leicester City as he is suspended.

While it is a big opportunity for Amartey, deploying him at his unusual right-back position could be the only worry.
