Premier League: Riyad Mahrez Manchester City transfer, Leicester City, news, updates



MANCHESTER City have completed the signing of Riyad Mahrez from Leicester City for a club-record $A107 million – some way short of the Foxes’ $A142 million January asking price.


Mahrez was the subject of four failed bids from Manchester City in the mid-season transfer window and, after a move to the Etihad did not materialise he missed training for over a week, with the Algeria international forced to deny going AWOL.

But the Premier League champions remained keen on Mahrez, who scored 13 goals in 41 appearances for Leicester last season.


A deal for Mahrez would make him City’s record signing ahead of defender Aymeric Laporte, who signed from Athletic Bilbao for $101 million in January.
