Anthony Joshua 'approached by Man City star Riyad Mahrez’s WAG in night club'

Boxing champ Anthony Joshua was reportedly approached by Man City WAG Rita Mahrez during a night out at a London club. Riyad Mahrez’s 26-year-old wife was supposedly spotted with her hand on the world heavyweight champion’s knee at Tape in the city centre on Friday. A reveller told The Sun: “Rita bumped into AJ on her way out and he invited her to join him at his table in VIP. Rita, who was with a female pal, clearly thought AJ was incredibly hot. They then spent much of the evening laughing and flirting. He didn’t have a clue who she was. He simply thought she was a pretty girl and enjoyed their chat. But when the club owner pointed out she was Riyad’s wife, AJ got a bit awkward, and totally backed away. He explained he didn’t want to step on any toes or cause a scene, and that he’d be stupid to be seen doing anything in public. They left with friends at 3am, but got into separate cars.” A spokesman for Anthony Joshua told Daily Star Online: “Anthony was approached in a night club. He is disappointed his name is used to generate publicity in this manner.” Source-Daily Star
