DHARMIE KRIT GLOBE

Leicester City will not sell Riyad Mahrez to Roma or any other club until their demands are met, Craig Shakespeare has said. Leicester City manager Craig Shakespeare insists they will not sell Riyad Mahrez until a "reasonable" offer is made.

Nevertheless, in Real's last outing in the competition in 2014, the former Tottenham man saw red as Real slipped to defeat aginst City rivals Atletico in the second leg at the Vicente Calderon. Real lost that Super Cup and lost something much more precious at the same time: Modric's availability this time round. As this is Real's first outing in the Super Cup since Modric's red, this is the game he misses, despite it being three years since his indiscretion. A such the 30-year-old will be forced to watch the game at home like the rest of us. Modric's unavailability comes at the worst possible time for Zinedine Zidane's side, ahead of a highly-anticipated clash against arch-rivals Barcelona. It does however, open the door
