Riyad Mahrez returns to training with Leicester following self-imposed exile
16:35 · FRI February 09, 2018
Leicester winger Riyad Mahrez has ended his self-imposed exile by returning to the club's training ground on Friday.
The 26-year-old has not trained with his team-mates since Manchester City launched a bid to sign him at the end of the January transfer window.
The Foxes blocked what would have been a dream move to the Premier League leaders for Mahrez, and he has subsequently missed the games against Everton and Swansea.
On Friday afternoon a statement from the club read: "Riyad Mahrez has today returned to training with the Leicester City squad.
"Riyad remains a greatly valued member of Claude Puel’s squad and is focused, together with his teammates, on achieving further success with Leicester City."
🦊 Riyad Mahrez is set to return to #LCFC training today.
