James Rodríguez expressing his honor to be praised by his hero, 'El Pibe' Valderrama.

"Rodríguez is mentally sharp, possessing quick reactions when closed down which allows him to keep control of the ball and making him more likely to be fouled. While left footed, he's able to control the ball just as well with his right foot."

STARS IN EUROPE - ALGERIA - CLUB - Mahrez signs four-year Leicester deal

Leicester Riyad Mahrez

 

Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez has signed a new four-year contract with the Premier League champions.

The Algeria international, 25, had been strongly linked with a move to Arsenal this summer.

He scored 17 goals and added 11 assists last season and was voted the Professional Footballers' Association Players' Player of the Year.

Mahrez joins team-mates Wes Morgan, Jamie Vardy, Kasper Schmeichel and Andy King in signing new contracts.

Manager Claudio Ranieri has also signed a new four-year deal and, after losing midfielder N'Golo Kante to Chelsea, has repeatedly reiterated his desire to keep hold of the club's top players.

Mahrez joined the Foxes from French second-tier side Le Havre in January 2014.
