Mahrez issues come and get me plea to Arsenal

Mahrez issues come and get me plea to Arsenal

Algerian international Riyad Mahrez has sent a message to Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger that he’s ready to make a move to North London this summer. Having handed in a transfer request at the end of last season, the 26-year-old told Elheddaf TV (via The Mirror) that he is ready to listen to concrete offers for his signature.
 
Mahrez explained that; “There's a big difference between an offer and speculation, so there is nothing on the table at the moment. The chairman and I agreed that I would stay another year at the club and that he would let me leave at the end of the season.
"I think it would be the right time for me to leave, I have experienced everything at this football club. So for me, it would be the right time to leave. The club and I are on the same page regarding my future so we'll see."
 
He continued by stating that he was hopeful that there would be interest in him when the window opens on July 1 and even stated that; “A number of clubs have shown their interest, even last season when I stayed at the club. I'm not here to say which club has spoken to me, even I still don't know. I'm still at Leicester City for the time being; I'm still under contract so we'll see what happens next. If I have to go, I'll go but if I have to stay then I'll stay. I should be leaving but I still don't know where so we'll see."
Wenger is known to be a huge admirer of the player and was linked with a move for his services last summer.
