RIYAD MAHREZ‘s Twitter follow list may hold the key to his potential move to Arsenal – as social media continues to add fuel to the lengthy transfer saga.
The Algerian playmaker, 25, has followed the most unlikely of Arsenal players on social media – flop Yaya Sanogo.
Mahrez won PFA Player of the Year and Leicester want him to stay at the King Power
Sanogo has been farmed out on loan during his time at the Emirates
A quick glance through Mahrez’s following list shows he tracks the lives of 88 others, with the majority been Leicester and Algerian team-mates.
But Sanogo – still without a league goal for the club since his 2013 switch – is the newest name to be added by the Foxes playmaker.
The striker was shipped out on loan to Charlton last season after a disappointing spell with Ajax but failed to shine for the Addicks as they were relegated to League One.
It may seem trivial, but in a summer dominated by social media transfers – most notably the switch of Paul Pogba which developed hour-on-hour through Instagram – the move is sure to get tongue’s wagging.
Sanogo is clearly a fan of last year’s champions, with his last tweet a congratulations to the Foxes following their 5000/1 title success.
