Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez will not play against Manchester City this weekend.

Ironically, it was Mahrez's failed deadline day move to City that has caused him to go AWOL from the Foxes.

The Algerian hasn't trained with his teammates since learning he would remain at the club until the end of the season.

It has been reported that Leicester rejected an offer from City for Mahrez worth £60million.

The 26-year-old has had another stellar season at the King Power, having scored 8 goals and provided 8 assists.
