Brendan Rodgers has slammed Jannik Vestergaard for criticising the Leicester manager in an "unauthorised" interview - and is understood to have banished him from his squad.
The Denmark centre-back criticised the 50-year-old in an interview with Danish publication EkstraBladet earlier this month and admitted he has been left baffled by his treatment at the Foxes. He also said it was "strange" that he had not been considered for selection.
Vestergaard has played just three times this season - none in the Premier League - despite Leicester's defensive crisis and injuries in that position. Only Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest have conceded more top-flight goals than the Foxes' 43 as they battle to avoid the drop this season.
