Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez rules out joining Paris Saint-Germain

Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez rules out joining Paris Saint-Germain.

Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez has admitted that he has no intention of joining Paris Saint-Germain anytime soon.

The 25-year-old has been a pivotal part of the Foxes' campaign for the Premier League title, which they will win if they defeat Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Mahrez, who has scored 17 goals and provided 11 assists in 34 league appearances this season, was named the PFA Player of the Year on Sunday.

The winger grew up in France, but is more than happy to stay at Leicester.

"Even today I am not too excited about the prospect of PSG," Reuters quotes Mahrez as saying. "It is my town, but I do not see myself going back.

"I don't really want to go back to France. France does not really excite me, I love England."

Mahrez joined Leicester for a figure in the region of £400,000 from Le Havre in 2014.
