Riyad Mahrez has promised to do his best for Leicester despite admitting he is still keen to discuss a potential move to Serie A side Roma.

The 26-year-old winger, who won the Premier League with the Foxes in 2015-16, first expressed a desire to leave in May and boss Craig Shakespeare has said a July bid from Roma was rejected.

Algeria international Mahrez - the PFA players' player of the year in 2016 - is eager to speak to "great club" Roma, but until he is given permission to do so he will continue to fight for the Leicester cause.
