Agent: 'Riyad Mahrez happy at Leicester'

The agent of Riyad Mahrez has claimed that the winger is "very happy" at current club Leicester City, after being linked with Arsenal and Barcelona.

The 24-year-old has netted four goals in five Premier League games for the Foxes so far this season, which has reportedly attracted the attention of the Gunners and La Liga giants Barca.

However, Kamel Bengougam has insisted that his client is only focused on Leicester for the time being.

"Riyad is very happy at Leicester and he just signed a new contract at the club last month," Bengougam told ESPN.

"Riyad is not thinking about the rumours and is focused on his season with Leicester and wants to continue his fine form."

Mahrez penned a new five-year deal in August that will keep him at the King Power Stadium until 2019.
