Previous reports have suggested that Roma were closing in on a deal for the Algerian.
Arsene Wenger is in the market for a winger and has earmarked both Mahrez and AS Monaco’s Thomas Lemar as possible transfer targets.
Mahrez had been linked with a move away from Leicester during the summer after they lifted the Premier League title, but the club reportedly promised to sell the winger the next summer as long as he remained with the Foxes for another season.
