Or he's gone home for a few days and thought he'd go to the game

It's his dream to play for Barca so if they want him, he'll want to go. In this day and age, the player is in charge.
We could doubtless get closer to £40m for him from suitors in this country but if his heart is set on Barca and he demands this (alongside his four agents) we'll probably just have to get what we can from them.
I'd guess that much will depend on whether they sell Neymar or not.

This is absolutely the case.

I really hope that this is paper or agent talk. If we can secure champions league football I would like to think Mahrez would want to stay for next season as that experience would be critical to his development rather than becoming a bit part squad player at a bigger club.

Although he may want to join Barca (and who could blame him), I can't see a snowball in hell's chance of him being sold for 20-25 million.

Barca don't always play fair in regards to transfers:

Ranieri and/or Mahrez and/or Vardy to Real Madrid. Or just plain bollocks.

Maybe Barca aren't the only team who'd like sign him?

Where the hell these newspapers are getting their figures from I do not know. £25 million wouldn't buy any top player from the PL let alone Mahrez. If Bale was bought for an alleged 80 million, then £25 million is an absolute joke for a player who can create, assist and score goals. I've seen more players on their arses as he has turned them inside out, and it's a joy to watch. Players with his ability set come along very very rarely, his value? Lets double 25 million just as a starting point, how high will it go that depends on how much these so called 'big' clubs want him and a bidding war at some point in the future could get very interesting. However not yet, I want to see him in a City shirt for a few more seasons.Being realistic if he continues with this form there is little doubt, the Barca's and the Real's will come knocking on Claudio door.

25 million! **** off. If it wernt bullshit a bidding war between those two would surely see that doubled.

Unless he has a £25m release clause...
Now that's worrying!
For some reason I have quoted the wrong post, it should have been Durham's!!
