Leicester outcast Adrien Silva wants to quit Foxes before transfer deadline
Midfielder has endured a nightmare since he moved to the Premier League from Sporting Lisbon in the summer of 2017
ADRIEN SILVA reportedly wants to quit Leicester City before the transfer window slams shut on Thursday.
The 29-year-old has grown frustrated with his lack of action under Claude Puel and is desperate to leave the King Power.
Puel is loath to lose the experienced midfielder but will not stand in his way.
But today’s report claims it is the Leicester hierarchy he needs to convince as several European clubs plot a potential swoop.
Silva has endured a nightmare since joining Leicester in the summer of 2017 in a £22m deal from Sporting Lisbon.
The paperwork for that move arrived 14 seconds passed the deadline and he was subsequently banned from playing for the Foxes until the transfer window reopened last January.

Craig Shakespeare was the manager that persuaded Silva to head to the Premier League.
But he was axed 18 months ago and replaced by Puel, who selected the ace on 16 occasions throughout the remainder of the campaign upon taking charge.
