Leicester boss Craig Shakespeare admits he is in the dark over the Adrien Silva saga - and that he is kept abreast of some developments through the media.
Silva has been in limbo after Leicester missed the transfer deadline by 14 seconds when trying to sign him from Sporting Lisbon in a £22million deal last month.
It meant FIFA withheld the International Transfer Certificate (ITC) for the Portugal international midfielder and since then the Premier League club have been preparing an appeal.
World football's governing body has confirmed it has been asked by the Football Association to rubber stamp Silva's transfer.
