Manchester City tipped to complete £75m Riyad Mahrez deal next week

City 'to complete Mahrez deal next week'

Manchester City are allegedly on the verge of completing the £75m capture of Leicester City forward Riyad Mahrez.

The Premier League champions are likely to finalise the deal next week, according to the Daily Mail.

Mahrez has been a long-term City target, with the Sky Blues having launched an unsuccessful bid for the Algeria international's services during the winter transfer window.

Leicester, meanwhile, are said to be interested in signing City winger Patrick Roberts, although the negotiations for this deal are believed to be separate to the Mahrez transfer.

City are expected to be in for a busy transfer window, with Pep Guardiola's side also aiming to bring in Napoli midfielder Jorginho this summer.
