LAST 24HOURS OF THE JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW

CITY BID £55M FOR MAHREZ

So, in the last hour, Manchester City are understood to have registered a third bid of £55m for Leicester winger Riyad Mahrez.

The transfer, if successful, would put Mahrez second among City's most expensive purchases, behind new arrival Aymeric Laporte (£57m).

Mahrez would be by far Leicester's most expensive export, dwarfing the £35m they received for Danny Drinkwater from Chelsea.
