Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez insists that he is not thinking about the January transfer window just yet.

Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez has claimed that the idea of leaving the club in January has not crossed his mind.

The Algerian international announced at the end of last season that he wanted to move on from the King Power Stadium.

Roma approached the Foxes during the summer window, but the Serie A side failed to meet Leicester's valuation of the winger, who played a pivotal role in the club securing a shock Premier League title win in 2015-16.

Despite Mahrez being heavily linked with a move elsewhere, the 26-year-old told Sky Sports News: "Yes I am happy, I am happy, I'm here four years and I love this club. I am very happy.

"I don't want to think about [January]. We still have 12 games to go until January, so if I think about January now I'm not going to play football.

"I need to play and concentrate on football and the team and we will see."

Leicester currently sit 12th in the table with three wins, four draws and four defeats.
