Leicester reportedly value Mahrez at 50m.![]()
Unbelievable
He'll definitely score goals, but he's the type of player who will wont chase the ball or battle with a defender if he doesn't feel like it. Mourinho might try to beat that out of him so we'll see.
£75m is crazy but I guess that's the market these days.

Everton now want 90m for Lukaku
At even the current market rate, I dont think he is worth a penny more than 40-45m quid.
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
They said he wasn't for sale at any price. Unless that price was 80 million.Arsenal have returned with a £40million bid for Monaco star Thomas Lemar after seeing their initial £30m approach rejected.
Monaco have previously stated their refusal to sell the talented 21-year-old midfielder at any price this summer but the Gunners are testing that resolve.
The Frenchman is known to have a strong friendship with new Arsenal signing and compatriot Alexandre Lacazette.
So how can bidding half of what they demand be a worthwhile move?
We're just wasting time. Pay them 50 mill and then pay Alexis 300k per week and we're done. Why are we fucking around on 275k per week? What's the difference? It's all funny money.
Sign Lemar, secure Alexis. If we do that then I'll hold my hands up and say great transfer window.
However, anything other that that, not signing Alexis one way or the other, and not adding more quality to the squad on top, represents a total and comprehensive failure. There's no middle ground here at all. Not after all the years of fucking around.

Most interesting thing I've heard about Lemar is the comparison with Santi Cazorla a French journalist apparently made. If he had that kind of ability and skill set I'd say we should have made 50 million the initial offer.
Odd comparison. Few as technical as Santi. Lemar is not two footed, he's bigger, faster and more powerful. More Bale than Santi IMO. Apparently he's agreed personal terms with us now, but the 40 mill bid has already been rejected. Journos reporting that Monaco think they'll get the 80 mill next season so they are desperate to hold onto him. We'll have to break the transfer record again I think and I can't see that happening. Then again, football is so crazy now and heading fast in an even crazier direction, maybe 50, 60 mill will be a bargain by comparison to next summer's prices. 50 mill for Mbappe last season might have been seen as madness at the time, maybe not one year on though.
Mahrez for 50 mill after his antics last season? No thanks.
