Report: PL rivals ‘enquiring’ about Man City player, 30 y/o ‘unlikely’ to join club

Riyad Mahrez has been tipped to leave Manchester City this summer and Dean Jones of Eurosport says Arsenal could be a potential destination. The Gunners have been ‘enquiring’ about the 30-year-old, but Jones concedes it’s ‘unlikely’ he’d willingly move to North London.

Mahrez made 48 appearances in all competitions last season, scoring 14 goals with nine assists, but he’s was wildly inconsistent in 2020/21 and may need upgrading. The Algerian international scored only four Premier League goals between September 2020 and February 2021 and failed to find the back of the net domestically after March.
