Claude Puel has warned Adrien Silva that he will not become an automatic starter in the Leicester City lineup even after he is eligible to play.

Silva will finally be able to turn out for Leicester City as his registration hold by FIFA will be lifted in a month's time.

But manager Puel has stated that the Portuguese international will need to prove his worth in order to earn a place in the starting lineup.

Puel said: "It's another problem. Of course, we will be happy when he comes back in. For six months, he cannot play in games, so it is difficult. We will see his level and if he can help us quick or not."
