Chelsea are reportedly preparing to return to Premier League champions Leicester City in this transfer window to bring Riyad Mahrez to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea raided Leicester for N'Golo Kante at the weekend, with the France international signing a five-year contract with the Blues after an impressive first season in English football.
According to The Express, the London club will now launch a bid for Mahrez, who has reportedly turned down the chance to sign a new contract at the King Power Stadium.
The 25-year-old's performances during Leicester's title-winning campaign last season saw him named the PFA Player of the Year, just two years after joining from Le Havre. In all, Mahrez netted 18 goals and provided 11 assists in 40 appearances for the Foxes last term.
