The French international’s performances saw him named in the PFA Team of the Season as well as being named on the six-man short list for PFA Player of the Season, and understandably he’s attracting interest from some of Europe’s most powerful clubs.

The efforts of Riyad and Kante are counted a great deal during Leicester’s struggle to stay at the top of the English Premier League giants, which recently crowned the them ‘new Sheriffs in tow’.

They remain keen on signing Granit Xhaka from Borussia Monchengladbach while also focusing on recovering their injured players including Jack Wilshere and Santi Cazorla.

The Gunners are apparently facing competition from both Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City, but while wages could potentially come into it, with a set release clause their financial firepower won’t mean a huge amount.
