Ghana defender Daniel Amartey secured a draw for Leicester City against Blackburn Rovers in a pre-season friendly on Saturday.

Following a cagey first half, the Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers introduced Daniel Amartey in place of Wilfred Ndidi at half time.

The King Power Stadium outfit shot into the lead through Daniel Amartey.

The Ghanaian eluded his marker to nod home a corner kick in the 67th minute.

It was the first outing for the 25-year-old in a Leicester shirt since last summer’s pre-season training.

He has been linked with a move away from the club after enduring a difficult period last term.

Premier League returns next weekend as Leicester City play against West Brom.
