Riyad Mahrez

This transfers windows started great...

Why would Sandro leave Juve? Wishful thinkong on part of our board if they think they can prize away one of Juve's best players from them. We should be spending our time and energy on someone like Mendy who is attainable.

I think we need someone like him to ease the creative burden of Hazard. Currently on Cesc does that in the squad.

[Dahnald 256]

Well, to me he's a welcoming addition. 

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Not too happy about getting him, but will do as alternative, since we are quite short there. Pedro has been much better than him, so I would stick to him for next season if he keeps the level.

Roma's Riyad Mahrez transfer offer rejected by Leicester

 

Leicester have rejected a £20million offer from Roma for Riyad Mahrez, according to Sky in Italy.

The offer was made during a meeting between Roma sporting director Monchi and Leicester's head of senior player recruitment Eduardo Macia.

Leicester are understood to be seeking £30m for the Algerian attacking midfielder.

Mahrez, who was instrumental in Leicester's 2015-16 title-winning campaign, handed in a transfer request in May.

30 million is peanuts in this type of market. 

[Special Juan 27,421]

20M is an insult in this market, what a joke.

[Fernando 6,453]

The article says that they want 30 million for him. 

For 30 million I think we should take a look.

All depends on what the club are willing to spend this year at what positions they see as priority I guess.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

I can see the future. Looks like someone will said 30m is still too much for a backup winger

Surely it's somewhere close to 200 considering who we bid for until now. I mean Lukaku 70, Sandro 60, Bakayoko 40 and Rudiger 30.

 

Considering James, Bernardo, Sanchez, Lemar are unattainable anymore might be worth a punt at Mahrez for 30. 

[Rekin 835]

30m would be great, but Leicester might be ok with getting less if he is sold abroad. We have been linked with Mahrez earlier in the window by Matt Law, so it is still realistic. 

[mccg 1,528]

thought he was a cert for the arses , thats just what they needed lol , chuck 1 of our 1000000000 loaness at them and 20mill tap tap boom

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

If only he can play as a wing back..

[The Skipper 20,593]

Mahrez would be a great depth signing at the very least. Isn't much elite talent available in his position in the market - I'd be happy with signing him for around 30m for sure.

I guess the question is:  Will Leicester sell to another Premier League side for 30 million?

There were rumors of Leicester holding out for at least 40 million if they were to sell to another English club (probably the reason why Arsenal aren't that interested and Liverpool preferred Salah)
