Mahrez joins a long list of players who re-upped with the Premier League champions this summer including, Jamie Vardy, Wes Morgan, Ben Chilwell and Kasper Schmeichel.
The 25-year-old midfielder/forward was in world-beating form in 2015/16 as he netted 17 goals and added 11 assists en route to the PFA Player of the Year Award.
It’s great news for the Foxes who started the season with a bit of a bump losing the opener to Hull at KCOM Stadium. Heading into Saturday’s match with Arsenal, it’ll be a huge boost for the club to have their key man under contract, officially ending speculation about his rumored departure.
Happy days!
More to come on Fosse Posse, so keep it right here!
