Riyad Mahrez has claimed that Liverpool "were interested" in his services before he joined Manchester City, but Mohamed Salah's move to Anfield scuppered any potential deal.
Mahrez proved to be one of the shrewdest acquisitions in Premier League history after completing a £450,000 move to Leicester from Le Havre in 2014.
The Algeria international made 179 appearances for the Foxes in total, scoring 46 goals, and earned the PFA Player of the Year award in 2015-16 after inspiring their stunning title triumph under Claudio Ranieri.
Leicester managed to retain the 29-year-old's services for the following season amid intense transfer speculation, with the winger once again integral during the team's run to the Champions League quarter-finals.
