Leicester midfielder Adrien Silva 'disgusted' by injustice leaving him in football exile following move to Foxes from Sporting Lisbon

Leicester midfielder Adrien Silva is 'disgusted' by the injustice which has left him in exile.

The Portugal international cannot play for the Foxes until January after the paperwork for his £22million move from Sporting Lisbon was filed 14 seconds after August's transfer deadline.

Leicester's appeal was rejected by FIFA which has left Silva facing four months out and unhappy with the situation.
