Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea ‘interested in Manchester City’s Riyad Mahrez’

Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez, according to SportsMole.

The 31-year-old has been a standout performer for the Citizens this season, scoring 21 goals and registering seven assists in 33 appearances across all competitions.

According to French news outlet Foot Mercato, PSG have identified Mahrez as the ideal replacement for 34-year-old Angel Di Maria, who is out of contract this summer.

However, the report adds that the French giants face stern competition from Chelsea, with Thomas Tuchel’s side also keeping tabs on the Algerian’s situation.

Mahrez has less than 18 months remaining on his current contract at the Etihad Stadium and talks over a new deal are yet to take place.

Foot Mercato also claim that the winger could be available for around £30m this summer if he fails to agree terms with City before the beginning of next season.

Mahrez has made a total of 175 appearances for Pep Guardiola’s side since joining from Leicester City in 2018, winning two Premier League titles, three League Cups and one FA Cup.
