Leicester City defender Patrick Kisnorbo is facing another lengthy spell on the sidelines after picking up a second knee injury.

The Australian defender only returned to action in mid-October after missing the opening two months of the season with a knee problem.

Kisnorbo lasted just five minutes of Saturday's 3-0 FA Cup first round win over Stevenage Borough at the Walkers Stadium.

"It's not the same knee but it's unfortunate for us and Paddy," confirmed manager Nigel Pearson.

Meanwhile, the Foxes have revealed the appointment of chartered accountant Atul Sharma to the club's board of directors.

"We have big plans and ambition for this club and Atul's appointment is another step along the way to making Leicester City a major force once again," chairman Milan Mandaric told the club's official website.
