Riyad Mahrez has been constantly linked with a move away from Leicester City, and Arsenal are serious contenders to sign the Algerian winger with reports this weekend claiming that the deal is done and will be announced soon.

Mahrez had a bit of a disappointing season after his marvellous title winning 2015/16 but Leicester City’s whole squad didn’t quite live up to expectations over the past 12 months.

The 26-year-old was still one of their best players, making 48 appearances over four different competitions, putting in some strong performances, scoring on 10 and assisting on seven occasions.

The Algerian international was a true revelation in England and the winger, who arrived at Leicester for €500k from Le Havre, has proven his worth and repaid every penny invested.

So what are his strengths, style, weaknesses and could he improve at Arsenal?
