Chelsea Plotting Another Bid For Leicester City Star

N'Golo Kante's transfer to Chelsea from Leicester City was confirmed yesterday as 'The Blues' are reportedly plotting a bid for another Foxes star.

The French midfielder joined for a fee of £32 million after heavy speculation about his future, and rumours have surfaced that his teammate, Riyad Mahrez, could follow him to London.

The Daily Express are reporting that Mahrez has snubbed a £100,00-a-week contract as he mulls over offers from some of Europe's elite.

The Algerian was snapped up from Le Havre for a measly £350,000, and enjoyed a hugely successful season on a team and individual base. His side incredibly won the league title while his performances, which included 17 goals with 10 assists, helped himself to an array of accolades including PFA Player of the Year.

New boss Antonio Conte has already captured the services of Michy Batshuayi as he eyes further new recruits in order to mount a challenge on all fronts.

Is Mahrez about to follow Kante to Stamford Bridge?
