Injured Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is aiming to be fit for Denmark's World Cup qualifier on Sunday, less than a week after undergoing surgery.

Schmeichel, 29, had hernia surgery on Monday, having been substituted during his club's 2-1 Premier League win over Swansea City.

Now, the shot-stopper is aiming for a quick recovery, setting his sights on Denmark's clash against Armenia in Copenhagen.

"Operation went well. Recovery starts now!" Schmeichel tweeted.
