Reports | Four clubs monitoring Riyad Mahrez’s contract situation at Manchester City

But with Mahrez now 31 and with reports indicating that City are looking to refresh their squad in order to create another super-team, it has seen the Algerian reportedly consider his future. That combined with the fact that he has less than eighteen months left on his current contract has seen FootMercato report that the Algerian has attracted interest from across Europe. The report has revealed that Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are all keeping a close eye on the forward’s contract talks with Manchester City. 

However, all four sides do consider Mahrez as a second option although Barcelona are overly keen as they’re looking to replace the outgoing Ousmane Dembele with a new winger. They have also been linked with a move for Raphinha, who is reportedly their first-choice, but believe that Mahrez could also be a great option instead. But FootMercato has further reported that contract talks are yet to take place between the 31-year-old and Manchester City although there are plans in place.
