Reports indicate that the football club Al-Ittihad Jeddah is interested in signing the Algerian star Riyad Mahrez, who currently plays as a winger for the English team Manchester City.
The French journalist, Romain Molina, stated on his personal account on the social media website Twitter that Al-Ittihad Jeddah is interested in acquiring the services of Riyad Mahrez during the summer transfer season.
Several newspaper reports have indicated that the Saudi Arabian Rochen League title holders are preparing an attractive offer that is worth three times the salary of the Algerian international player’s contract with Manchester City.
Al-Ittihad aims to sign Kanté and Koulibaly
having already sealed a deal with French international Karim Benzema. Talks are advanced regarding the acquisition of their compatriot N’Golo Kanté and Senegalese defender Kalidou Koulibaly.
Ahli Jeddah has previously shown interest in Riyad Mahrez, but according to several reports, Al-Ahli has not made an official offer to obtain the services of the Algerian international.
Mahrez played a significant role in achieving the historic treble with Manchester City this season. The Sky Blues won the English Premier League title against Arsenal.
He won the English FA Cup against his rival Manchester United by two goals to one and secured the Champions League title for the first time ever in his history by beating Inter Milan.
