Two transfer windows that could have seen the Algerian international exit the East Midlands have gone, and the Foxes only have themselves to blame
It’s hard to forget how Leicester City won an unexpected Premier League title during the 2015-16 season, rising above immense adversity, and showing grit and determination against the well established sides. Their story definitely goes down as one of the finest and most inspiring in sports history, even if the subsequent downturn in fortunes for the Foxes.
While credit has to go to Claudio Ranieri for masterminding such brilliant feat, it’s impossible to underestimate Riyad Mahrez for his remarkable contribution to that famous success.
The Algerian was signed from French club Le Havre for a meagre £400,000 in January 2014 and helped Leicester gain top-flight promotion for the first time since 2004 before contributing an impressive 17 goals and 10 assists during the fairytale title-winning campaign of 2016.
