The Leicester City star has been linked with Liverpool and Arsenal.
According to Algerian outlet Le Buteur, Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez would favour a switch to Arsenal over Liverpool or Chelsea this summer.
It was reported by The Express earlier this month that Leicester had put a £50 million price-tag on the 26-year-old, with Arsenal leading the race for him.
But the trail has gone a little cold in recent weeks and The Daily Mail claimed recently that Liverpool and Chelsea had thrown their hat in the ring.
Despite having no Champions League football to offer, however, the Algerian schemer would rather join the Gunners if the choice was given to him, according to Le Buteur.
The report goes on to state that the France-born player is attracted to the North London club’s French contingent, including the presence of Arsene Wenger, and that his first-team prospects are better there than they would be at Liverpool or Chelsea.
The Leicester star won PFA Player of the Year last year in helping the Foxes to Premier League glory last year and it would be a major coup for Arsenal.
