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.

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

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.

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.

The article says that they want 30 million for him. 

For 30 million I think we should take a look.

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)

I am very surprised no one has met his asking price. £30m for him is a steal in the current market today. He had one brilliant season and was poor last season but if he played with more top players, imo you would see more of the 15/16 player and he is still only 26.
