"Leicester City" coach Claudio Ranieri says he hasn't noticed any signs of Riyad Mahrez being sent away and is confident that the Algerian will stay with the team. The "Foxes" star has attracted the attention of several top clubs, and recently, there have been reports in the media that London's "Arsenal" will seek to acquire him at any cost. However, the coach of the English champions hopes that the country's forward will follow in the footsteps of Jamie Vardy, not N'Golo Kante. "If he wants a new contract, that's good. It's important to me that he stays with us this season," Ranieri said. "He is very happy. I see him every day and he hasn't told me anything strange. I'm confident about him. It's based on my experience." "The club is working very well, so I think the players want to stay here and perform even better than last season. We know it will be very difficult, but we are ambitious. Therefore, it is important for them to extend their contracts, stay with us, and gain experience in the Champions League. Then we'll see what happens." Last season, Mahrez scored 17 goals and made 11 assists in the Premier League."
