Leicester boss Craig Shakespeare will hold talks with wantaway winger Riyad Mahrez and expects him to remain professional.
The 26-year-old returned to training for the first time on Friday after publicly stating he wants to leave the club last month.
Arsenal have been continually linked with the 2016 PFA Player of the Year who said he felt it was “time for me to move on” and that there was a gentleman’s agreement with Leicester he would be allowed to leave.
Shakespeare said: “When I sit down with him I’ll get an idea of where he’s at. With this being his first day we haven’t had a lot of time. Double sessions and it goes really quick. Before you know it, it’s 6pm of an evening and you’re thinking you’ve got to go home for a shower.
“It can be disappointing when players go public with it but I think you have to understand the modern game. Sometimes outside influences are secondary behind that and there can be reasons for that.
“Him coming out, we know where it stands but ultimately he’s contracted to the football club. He has to be professional. We have to be professional with him but more importantly he has to be committed and I think he has to show supporters, staff and players that.
