When Arsenal tried to sign Riyad Mahrez last summer the Algerian international star had just played a major part In Leicester City shocking the football world and being crowned the English Premier League champions, so it was not hard to understand why they wanted to keep him.
Despite the lure of big money and a move to London with Arsenal Mahrez agreed to stay with Leicester and help them in their first Champions League campaign, thereby disappointing Arsene Wenger and us Arsenal fans, but I think we all respected his decision as well.
Apparently he stayed with the agreement from his club that they would not then stand in his way if he did want to leave the following year and Mahrez himself spoke about this while saying at the end of last season that he was planning to move, but now it appears that the Foxes have turned their tail and are trying to block his transfer by raising the price from £35 million to a cool £50 million, a Metro report claims.
The report also says that the 26-year old has been left fuming by the actions of Leicester and so maybe it is time for him to play tough as well, perhaps by handing in a transfer request.
lets him come so thats its will put alexis in shame
can’t wait to see that lad in an arsenal shirt
Greedy Sanchez he will see it in city if it happen how city is small club than arsenal
We need Mahrez
We need Mahrez and Lemar
If Sanchez still forcing to leave us,just let him go to where ever he want,and bring Lemar and Mahrez they are good they help Ozil and Lecazette to the tittle
I would prefer arsene Wenger to swap Sanchez with Sergio aguero then buy lamer and mahrez
