Asked about AS Roma pursuing Algerian international attacking midfielder Riyad Mahrez (26), Leicester City manager, Craig Shakespeare, stated: "I think I was quoted on the last press day that there was no bids. There was a bid from Roma, I was told afterwards, so I would like to put the record straight on that one. It was politely declined on the basis that it was a low offer. Of what that offer is, don't ask me how much because I don't know and I don't get involved in that". Currently on a deal with Foxes until June 2020, Mahrez is tracked by Tottenham and Olympique Marseille as well.
