The Algerian attacking midfielder has become a hot commodity in the transfer market this summer, as European giants have started knocking on Leicester's door.

Riyad Mahrez has just been named the PFA Player of the Year, a well-deserved achievement after Mahrez scored 17 goals and assisted 11 to help Leicester City move one win away from the Premier League title.

Mahrez's performances have put him in the sights of a number of big clubs, including the two giants Barca and Real, the number one team in France PSG and Arsenal. However, Mahrez's mother wants her son to continue contributing to Leicester, the place that brought him glory.

"I really want Riyad to stay at Leicester. They have opened the door to greatness for my son's career," Ms Mahrez said in an interview. "This is the perfect club for Riyad, that's why I want him to continue his career here and live in England."

"England is where my son made his name and was even voted the best player. Of course, it is up to him to decide his own future, but I would advise him to continue playing in the Premier League. His life is stable here."

Mahrez's mother took to the stage at a ceremony honouring her son.

Mahrez has been a huge influence in her son Riyad's life. The Moroccan-born woman raised the 25-year-old midfielder alone in the Paris suburb of Sarcelles after his father died a decade ago.

In England, Mahrez also has a girlfriend, native model Rita Johal, and the two welcomed their first daughter in 2015.
