Algeria coach Djamel Belmadi says Riyad Mahrez is unsettled at Manchester City.

Belmadi insists Mahrez is frustrated by the lack of regular action he's seen at City this season.

He said, "Mahrez is not happy in Manchester because he doesn't play often and he is a fighter who wants to play every game for his team.

"I cannot ask him to leave his club to play more in another, because I am not his agent, but the most important thing is that he stay in shape and be prepared for the next matches of the national team."

Mundo Deportivo says among clubs watching developments are Real Madrid.
