Leicester City forward Riyad Mahrez has confirmed Arsenal tried to sign him last summer but the Premier League champions refused to sell.

Mahrez, who was a key component in Leicester’s march to the title last season, was continually linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium during the transfer window but a move never materialised.

However, the Algeria international has revealed there was an approach from Arsenal but he refused to force through a move with Claudio Ranieri determined to keep him at the King Power Stadium.
