The winger is set to return to the King Power Stadium for the first time since his move to the Premier League champions
Leicester City manager Claude Puel has admitted that Riyad Mahrez’s desperation to complete his move to Manchester City last season was a ‘difficult’ time for the Foxes.
The two sides are to face each other in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals on Tuesday night, a match that will mark the first time the winger has come up against his former side since his departure.
City attempted to sign Mahrez last January, with the Algerian missing 10 days of training and two matches in protest of Leicester’s reluctance to let him go.
