Leicester City’s Riyad Mahrez is the cover star of Thursday’s edition of Sport. The Catalan newspaper focuses mainly on Barcelona, and it’s claimed Mahrez is of interest to the club.
This time around it’s apparently different, with Leicester being ready to negotiate the player’s exit.
The Algeria international is said to be very keen on Barcelona specifically, even though there’s other interest, and contact has been going on ‘for months’.
Mahrez to Barcelona is a story which could just as easily disappear tomorrow for Sport, as carry to something more serious.
An estimated transfer fee is put at €35m to €40m.
