Leicester ready to lower their valuation for Mahrez

Leicester City to lower Riyad Mahrez asking price

21 May 2018 - 22:13

Leicester City are prepared to lower the transfer valuation of Riyad Mahrez with the Algerian desperate to pursue a big-money move this summer. Chelsea and Arsenal have been linked with the attacker in the past.

  • Arsenal to swap Gabriel Jesus for Inter Milan star?
  • Arsenal leading race to sign Belgian midfielder



  • The 27-year-old was heavily tipped to join Manchester City during the previous transfer window but the Foxes' hefty £95m price tag fended off their interest.

    Following the failed move, Mahrez had gone a two-week strike where he refused to train with the Foxes and the club are now keen to avoid a repeat of the situation.

    According to the Manchester Evening News, the former Premier League champions are keen to end their association with the attacker and they are willing to accept a much lesser sum than previously quoted in January.

    City cruised to the 2017/18 league title with a 19-point advantage over second-placed Manchester United but Guardiola is still keen on signing another winger to provide competition for Leroy Sane and Raheem Sterling.
