Riyad Mahrez’s recent visit to Arsenal has sparked talk of an imminent transfer, but Leicester boss Claude Puel claims the winger was on a scouting mission.
The Algeria international is generating plenty of speculation once again with the latest recruitment window open.
Potential moves to Liverpool and Arsenal have been mooted for the 26-year-old, with his presence at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday fuelling rumours that he could be heading to north London.
Puel, though, insists too much is being read into Mahrez and Islam Slimani taking in a Carabao Cup clash with Chelsea, with the Foxes manager joking that the pair had been asked to cast an eye over two Premier League rivals.
