Mahrez was frequently linked with a switch to Arsenal in the summer, however a deal never materialised. Now, Leicester could look to let their star man go, and Jurgen Klopp is the first to have pounced.
It is believed that it would cost in the region of £45million to sign the Algerian.
Thomas Lemar is another target for Klopp, however Monaco have stressed that their player is strictly not for sale.
