Manchester United are monitoring the progress of Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez, according to the Daily Mail.
Mahrez, 24, has been one of top performing players in the Premier League this season and his form has been integral to Leicester’s incredible start to the campaign.
The Algeria international’s performances were not going to go unnoticed and United are now keeping an eye on the exciting winger.
Mahrez’s spark and excitement is exactly what Louis van Gaal’s system is currently missing and his interest in the winger is understandable.
In fact, only Neymar (8.50) and Lionel Messi (8.44) have garnered a higher WhoScored rating than Mahrez (8.29) across Europe’s top five leagues this season and no player has been awarded the WhoScored man of the match more often than the Leicester winger thus far (5).
