da stake casino: The future of Riyad Mahrez is dominating the transfer gossip pages on deadline day, with the Leicester City star reportedly determined to leave the club before the midnight cut-off time.
da premier bet: According to BBC Sport, the Algerian international handed in a transfer request on Tuesday after Manchester City tabled a £50m offer to sign the playmaker.
The media outlet has since reported that the Premier League leaders have abandoned their pursuit due to Leicester’s asking price, which amounted to £95m in a player-plus-cash arrangement.
With City now seemingly out of the race, attention has turned to other top-flight clubs who may be interested in the 26-year-old’s services.
Over the last few weeks and months, Tottenham Hotspur have been placed in that category.
In the last couple of hours, speculation fuelled when former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand claimed in his Instagram story that he had just seen Mahrez in the car park at Wembley.
The retired footballer is at the ground to carry out punditry duties for BT Sport in the broadcaster’s coverage of this evening’s league encounter between Tottenham and Manchester United.
There is a very big chance that the 39-year-old was just joking and trying to tease football fans, but his social media claims have certainly got Spurs fans talking.
