Juve on alert as Algerian winger says 'It's time to leave Leicester'

ON HIS FUTURE - "There is a huge difference between an offer and rumors and there is nothing on the table today. The president and I agreed: I would stay for another year, then they would leave it up to me. I think it's the right time to leave, I've experienced everything here."

 

Juve evaluates Mahrez's words. The 26 year old Algerian winger is ready to change air and admits it without any doubts. After a scintillating season two years ago when Leicester unbelievably won the English Premier League, Mahrez was a major contributor under Claudio Ranieri. Mahrez’s 23 goals and 14 assists over the past two seasons show his capabilities, and perhaps his time to shine in a new squad has arrived.

 

Following that championship season, the Foxes lost midfielder N’Golo Kante, who was the heart and soul of the middle of the field for Ranieri. In addition they had to compete on two fronts, having been entered into the Champions League. Looking back the season was less than satisfactory for Leicester, and it seems as if some will follow Kante out of King Power Stadium.
