"Citizens" will have to pay for the midfielder Lester Riyad Marez a larger amount than originally expected.

Algerian midfielder will be one of the main transfer objectives of the "blue moon" in the summer off-season.

It was expected that the City will acquire Marais for 60 million pounds, however, according to The Guardian, this amount will ultimately be insufficient.

According to the publication, 60 million Leicester will require only for the transfer of Riyadh, while another 15 million pounds will be included in the contract as all sorts of bonuses.

Thus, the total amount will reach 75 million pounds.

In the season that ended the Premier League Mares played 36 games, having scored 12 goals and 13 assists.
