Leicester City manager Marti Cifuentes has got increasingly grumpy recently, and I am not the only one to notice. Local paper and online media outlet Leicester Mercury have been talking about the Catalonian's deteriorating mood of late too. That culminated in the former Queens Park Rangers head coach being described as 'in no mood to discuss' one particular important player's absence.
And the Blue Army fan base won't be shocked as to why the LCFC gaffer didn't wish to talk about Harry Winks once we detail the goings on in the situation. This is certainly a negative scenario between manager and athlete, according to what a top Foxes source divulged, in spite of being coy with explicit details.
Not to mention that when you read what Cifuentes notes, it becomes obvious. When you know the ex-Tottenham Hotspur man's history of reportedly being a training ground problem at Seagrave, it is even clearer. I am sure most of City's supporters know all too well what is going on in the camp. Though I'll briefly outline proceedings prior to discussing the boss's latest comments.
Although, Cifuentes doesn't actually want to directly discuss Winks. Nevertheless, the 43-year-old in charge on Filbert Way has actually revealed the midfielder's probable return date. Let's see what is being said of the apparently troublesome, possibly disruptive or insubordinate footballer.
Newest information on Leicester City's Harry Winks via manager Marti Cifuentes after omissions
Previously, Winks was accused of not participating in pre-match preparations with his fellow teammates by old boss Ruud van Nistelrooy. It appears that the same issue has reared its head with another gaffer.
The Telegraph's John Percy appeared to confirm as much, implicitly. Consequently, Winks was discarded from matchday squads. When asked about the matter, Cifuentes deflects.
However, the man in charge was pressed for an answer following the Bristol City capitulation:
"Asked if Winks would be available for selection for Saturday’s game against Ipswich, Cifuentes said he would, but only after a pause.LCFC Live
It was not a convincing answer from the manager and it would not be a surprise if Winks is again omitted against the Tractor Boys."
