Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez has strongly denied claims in the French media that he openly discussed the possibility of joining Paris Saint-Germain. The Algerian was linked with Real Madrid during the summer transfer window and quotes emerged in the French press following the West Ham fixture claiming Mahrez was interested in joining PSG. Quotes relayed by 'ActuFoot' suggested Mahrez spoke to French broadcaster Canal+ regarding his future, alleging the forward to have said: "Paris is my city, for the moment I am under contract with Manchester City, but I am not closing any doors, if PSG wants me, I will think about it." Mahrez denied the reports on social media. He wrote on Twitter: "Never said that. The tweet you translated was false and just click baiting. Delete. That's not what I said at all. What is difficult to transcribe word for word?" The winger is under contract at the Etihad Stadium until 2023.
