Marc Albrighton has revealed that Esteban Cambiasso has been key to Leicester City's revival in recent weeks.

Three successive victories for the Foxes have boosted their hopes of avoiding relegation to the Championship, and Albrighton believes that the influence of his Argentine teammate will be vital in the closing stages of the campaign.

"He is like an orchestrator, in the middle of the park he can see what is going on," he told reporters.

"He can tell people where to go. He is a big player for us and we have needed him and he has played very well.

"We have six big games coming up, we are going to need him and if he can pass on his experience in these games to the rest of us, it can only be positive."

Leicester, who are only behind 17th-placed Hull City on goal difference, visit Burnley on Saturday afternoon.
