Leicester City have reportedly indicated that Riyad Mahrez can leave the King Power Stadium during the summer.

Mahrez had hoped to depart Leicester before the start of this season and in the January transfer window, but the Foxes held firm when Manchester City bid in excess of £50m for the playmaker.

However, according to the Leicester Mercury, the East Midlands outfit will show a willingness to part ways with the Algerian international later this year.

Mahrez remains a key part of Claude Puel's squad but with the player having just over two years remaining on his contract, Leicester are now in a position where they must maximise the player's value.

The 27-year-old has contributed 10 goals and eight assists in 28 Premier League appearances this season.
