    Mahrez: 'Arsenal, Marseille wanted me, I'd never return to France'

    Riyad Mahrez has admitted that Arsenal were after him last summer, but also that a couple of Ligue 1 teams were very interested, too.

    The Leicester City winger was a strong player of the season candidate in 2015-2016, as the Foxes lifted their first ever Premier League trophy.

    “Arsenal wanted me last summer, but I’m happy I’ve stayed here”.

    “My agent spoke to [former] Marseille president Vinncent Labrune, but he didn’t tell me about it,” Mahrez told Canal Plus, “and anyway, I’d have never returned to France”.

    “PSG? They don’t interest me too much, but you never know in life”.
