Algerian international striker Riyad Mahrez is set to renew his contract with
Manchester City, the English Premier League champion, until 2025, French
sports newspaper L’Equipe reported on Monday.
With one year remaining on the contract linking him to City, the team he arrived
at in the summer of 2018 from Leicester City for 67 million euros, Mahrez was one
of the players who aroused the interest of many clubs, including Italian Juventus,
Real Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain, according to “L’Equipe.” “.
But the 31-year-old Algerian, who last season was the best scorer for Pep Guardiola’s
team in all competitions (24 goals, including 7 in the Champions League), seems
determined to continue his career with the “Citizens”.
The two parties began negotiating the extension of the contract some time ago,
and it seems that they are close to agreeing that the captain of the Algerian national
team will remain in the “Ittihad Stadium” until 2025.
Mahrez played 189 games in all competitions with City, scoring 63 goals with 43 assists,
to help his team win the Premier League title three times in the last four seasons.
