IMO, I dont think he wanted to stay. He saw the writing on the wall once Kante bailed. Or else he would not waited until really late in the window to sign that new contract.
I honestly do feel that the French reports were true (some of the reporters reporting it are generally reliable) and at one point we were interested in him, but I have a feeling LC asked for too much. Once Mahrez's camp understood that we were not going to meet LC's asking price, he had no choice but to sign that contract on an increased wage.
