Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola to launch £65m swoop for Leicester winger Riyad Mahrez
Etihad chief will revive his interest in the Algerian by making a third attempt to sign him this summer
PEP GUARDIOLA wants Riyad Mahrez to join his champions this summer.
And the Spaniard is plotting a £65million swoop for the winger.
Manchester City boss Guardiola made two unsuccessful bids for the Leicester star in January.
Mahrez, 27, was gutted when the Foxes refused to do business.
King Power chiefs priced him out of a move and would not settle for anything less than £85m.
The Algerian has two years left on his deal at Leicester.
But Guardiola is determined to bolster his firepower and will make another move.
Despite handing in a transfer request at the end of last season the attacker has remained in the Midlands.
KISS AND MAKE UP? Jose and Guardiola painted sharing passionate embrace
He has made 37 appearances for the Foxes and scored 11 goals so far this campaign.
The ace was named PFA Players' Player of the Year after helping Leicester to win the Premier League in 2016.
