Leicester boss Craig Shakespeare claims he has never experienced anything like the plight facing Adrien Silva, Leicester's deadline-day signing whose move was blocked by FIFA.
The Sporting Lisbon midfielder was lined up to replace Danny Drinkwater — who left for Chelsea over the summer — but Leicester are still waiting on FIFA to ratify the deal.
Though a £22million fee and personal terms were agreed, the Premier League club were 14 seconds late with the paperwork, rendering the midfielder unable to play. And Shakespeare admits the situation is like nothing he has ever seen.
