That’s the amount of time Leicester missed the deadline by in order to register Adrien Silva in the 2017 summer transfer window.When he finally did get a chance to prove himself in January of that season, it wasn’t really worth the wait, rarely showing many positive signs.The 26-cap Portuguese midfielder struggled again for game time last term, before being shipped out to Monaco on loan.However, with the 30-year-old now returning to the Midlands, Leicester fans are divided over whether he should get another chance if the club fail to secure the services of loan star Youri Tielemans.Sharing their views on Twitter, one fan was insisting he should get another opportunity, claiming that you don’t play at the level he has without being a decent footballer.
