Leicester are prepared to take their time reintegrating Riyad Mahrez back into the club, as they prepare to play their third game without the star playmaker.
The Algeria international has been AWOL ever since he was denied a deadline day move to Manchester City last month.
He was again absent from team training on Tuesday and is expected to miss the Foxes’ clash against Man City on Saturday – the third game he has not played since his failed move to the Etihad Stadium.
Leicester are set to hold talks with Mahrez's representatives but will not rush the former PFA Player of the Year back.
