All depends on how long he has left on his current deal and what wages he's currently on, that's what dictates his value more than anything.
I read he's on pretty low wages? If he is that's has a huge impact on what a team will have to pay for him.
That's just paper talk I assume, there is no way he would leave for that fee!!
Get used to Media stories linking your players to just about eveyone, its a small price to pay for having some of the best players in the league.
The fact remains his contract runs until June 2019, there's no way we'd sell for £15 Mill - Why would we, we don't need to and won't have Barca nicking our sweets like a playground bully.
I'd understand him wanting to go to Barca, but the price must be sensible and a reasonable market value and I'm sure Mahrez himself will support this
I think we should sign marez. I reckon he'll want to stay in England instead of moving all the way to Spain, plus we can pay him as much as Barcelona can.

It's not necessarily up to you what you sell for, they will be buying Marhez out of his contract and if he's on low wages that significantly impacts his current value.
Value isn't based on performance level
If Barca meet his value (based on current contract) and he want's to go he most likely will.
We did keep Suarez for another year when he wanted to go but it doesn't happen often, hope you do keep him but Barca are nigh on impossible to stop when they want your player.

They can only buy out a contract and we won't agree to sell for that price, we have him signed under a contract and wouldn't sell for £15 mill even if it is based on an earnings related amount - We'd simply politely decline the deal and anyway wouldn't you think he'd spark a bidding war
I expect there are certain clauses that work that way kneerash, but that's not my experience of how buying and selling between clubs works. I'm pretty sure there have been times when we've bid more than the rest of someone's contract. (And been turned down in the process!)
If Barcelona are interested then I don't think we can keep him - I believe it's understood that Barcelona Mahrez's dream move. Aside from that, who knows?
Also, I think any Mahrez speculation has to be taken with the fact that it's already been stated how we're going to offer a much-improved contract to him in the summer, and therefore at the very least his agent will be seeking to drive up his wages.
Youll get alot more than 15 - double that atleast
unless he were to go all van hoojdonk with you any bid of £15m would be laughed out of the room, and your chairman could go and learn the basque for ph@ack off.
you could easily, very easily, sell him for double that to any PL team, the guy is currently the favourite for player of the year, and is the same age as the previous player of the year, but oddly enough i don't read any articles linking madrid with a £15m move for hazard.
it's one thing barca tapping players up in the press, but another for them to do it on the cheap.
Inconceivable that Leicester haven’t already begun the process of getting a new contract prepared for Mahrez. If only to get the best price they can for him in the summer.
His current market value (£15m) does not reflect his “actual” value.
All valid points but his salary will have a big impact on what someone has to pay for him.
Like look at Suarez and us, we refused to sell to Arsenal cause that clause wasn't actually a iron clad get out clause (I know Marhez doesn't have one of these, well I'm assuming but never heard he did).
Suarez sign the deal a few months later with us and then come the summer we can got 80 million or whatever it was for him, cause we'd tied him down on a long term deal we could command a higher wage.
I know it's not an exact science or anything but the 15 million figure is probably a reflection of what his current contact is worth.
But it's right as said above, even if his contract only values him at 15 million plenty of clubs would pay double that for him.

he's under contract for another 3 years or so.
and who said his market value was £15m? some trashy story linking him to barca doesn't establish his market value.

What do you think a fair price is?
Personally I think £15m is too low, but £30m? Not yet.
After one season we don't know if he is a Michu or not.
If you keep him for another year his value could either skyrocket or divebomb. So, wht is he worth?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
as i said, i doubt chelsea are falling over themselves to sell hazard for £30m are they? the most recent player of the year.
if lallana and schneiderlin went for £25m, why would anyone think that the best player in the league this year should be sold for less than that? did michu ever win player of the year?

As best we can, we are going to have to replace Mahrez, How much do you think that replacement is going to cost us - I personally wouldn't let him go for a penny less than £35 Mill

Think it’s been fairly widely reported that £15m is his current value. While not always 100% accurate transfer market also valued him at £15m. Leicester will obviously not wish to consider selling him (at all) let alone £15m, which is why I believe they’ll want to get him signed to a new contract sooner rather than later.
Also from the player's point of view, a club like Barca would be difficult to say no to. Leicester will be fully aware of this.

ok, must have missed that...but seems like a bizarrely low figure, it's barely more than ross mccormack!
from what i see he signed an extension in august, and the club is lining up a new contract for the summer...they can certainly afford to tell any PL team to eff off for less than £30m, and as I said short of downing tools and refusing to play they can do the same to barca.
though i do agree, i've never been to leicester, but think i would find the leicester-barca move hard to turn down.
15 million is good for marez. We paid 15 for anelka and he was better than marez is now.

15 million is calculated for what it will cost to buy him out of his current contract, between now and the end of his contract LCFC will pay him about 15 million, therefore that's what it would cost to buy him out of his contract, leave any idea of playing quality out for a moment.
He's on very low wages in terms of other PL footballers hence the 15 million.
Tell me about it Foxes....this is one of the main reasons why I feking hate Barca.
They do that pretty much every year...nick best players around the world...you will see, soon their players will start spouting garbage in media and will start linking Meharez to Barca....disgusting.

sure, but who was the last player to actually buy out the last 3 years of his contract and move?
suarez was on £200k a week, but i don't remember barca ordering him to buy out the remaining 4 years of his contract at £42m and then picking him up for nothing (having given him the £42m of course).
