The agent of in-demand Leicester City attacker Riyad Mahrez has claimed that he fully expects his client to remain with the Foxes beyond the January transfer window.
The Algerian has scored 13 times and registered six assists in the Premier League this season, with his form, alongside Jamie Vardy's, seeing Leicester rise to the top of the table as 2016 approaches.
Arsenal and Manchester United have both been strongly linked with the 24-year-old, but according to Kamel Bengougam, the chances of Mahrez being allowed to leave his current club next month are slim.
"I don't think Leicester want to sell him and he is focused on doing well with them. I think he will stay in January," Bengougam told Sky Sports News.
Mahrez cost Leicester just £400,000 from French side Le Havre in 2014.
