Foxes1 Posted 10 August 2016 Share Posted 10 August 2016 Either Chelsea or whoever wants him puts a bid in for him and if its not enough we tell them to go away. Alternatively if Mahrez doesn't want to stay he puts in a written transfer request in and he leaves subject to a substantial bid coming in, all he or his agent seems to be doing is pissing us about.

Or - devil's advocate and all that - nobody is doing anything outside of the media and twitter etc, and a story has been created out of nothing, whilst they quietly try to renegotiate his current contract. Not likely I admit, but nothing will be quite as it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgfualol Posted 10 August 2016 Share Posted 10 August 2016 That's an insult. 30m for the player of the year when we were bidding that amount on that Orc from Watford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 10 August 2016 Share Posted 10 August 2016 On the basis that Stones was £47m and Pogba£89m, then we should be looking at £55m plus for Mahrez. If he is genuinely unsettled and wants to go and that is impacting us I think we should take around the £60m and strengthen with that accordingly - CAM and RB?

Benji Posted 10 August 2016 Share Posted 10 August 2016 Stones goes for £47m and penny pinchers have the audacity to offer £30m? Hilarious if true and outrageously arrogant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanlegend Posted 10 August 2016 Share Posted 10 August 2016 Arsenal are such a joke of a club. Are they living in 2002? It's no wonder they can never sign anyone. its the equivalent of us bidding £8.5million for Deeney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian_marshall Posted 10 August 2016 Share Posted 10 August 2016 The fact of the matter is he has 3 years left on his contract with no release clause, so Leicester can sell at their discretion and the club don't need him to sign a new contract (although this would be ideal). As such the only party that benefits from a new contract is Mahrez as his salary will increase in line with the higher earners at the club. The way I see it is that he has 3 options; refuse to sign a new contract and remain on this existing terms for the next 3 years but be massively undervalued in comparison to his peers, sign a new contract on increased terms and commit his future to the club, or hope that another club is prepared to meet city's valuation of him and a deal can be agreed for him to move. If it's the latter, city hold all the cards and should be looking for an above market fee. Whilst he might think the grass is greener on the other side he and his agent really aren't in a position to force the issue. If I was him I'd be looking to sign a new contract at city which will probably only add an additional year to his contract but more important secure him increased terms and hope that my form over the course of the season is good enough to attract another top team to stump up the kind of money secure a transfer away. If he doesn't take this course of action and the club dig their heels in preventing him from moving, should he have a poor season this year he could well find that the salary figures being bandied about right now aren't an option for him in a years time whether that be from city or elsewhere especially if other players excel.
