Barcelona set to make offer for Leicester City player

Barcelona is set to make an offer for Leicester City forward Riyad Mahrez for a move to Camp Nou according to report.

The Algerian signed for Leicester City from Le Havre but it looks  Mahrez wants an out from the club which made him a superstar as the player wants to spread to play for major European clubs.

Speculation has it that Barcelona is set to make an offer for the Algerian forward, the club believes that Mahrez will add some strength and depth to the wing position.

Mahrez was very instrumental last two seasons when Leicester won the English Premier League with the presence of N’Golo Kante in the midfield and Claudio Ranieri as the Manager, Leicester was a formidable team but the sale of the midfielder N’Golo Kante to Chelsea weakened the team and see them struggle all through this season as they failed to replicate the display that made them the English Champions.

It is a transfer period where nothing is impossible, we need to wait and let see how events unfold.
