Mahrez and Henderson latest Premier League stars set for Saudi league

It may be controversial, but the Saudi Arabian league is gathering pace with two more high profile Premier League players set to join.

Manchester City have agreed a £30m deal to sell Riyah Mahrez to Al-Ahli, while Liverpool have accepted a bid of £12m to sell captain Jordan Henderson to Al Ettifaq, where he'll play under his former Reds teammate Steven Gerrard.

City remain 4/61.67 favourites in the Premier League Winner market despite some high profile departures, though the likely outgoing of Mahrez could mean that Bernardo Silva won't be allowed to leave the Etihad this season.

Silva is now odds-on at 8/151.53 to remain at Man City, though should he be allowed to leae then PSG can be backed at 11/43.75 to sign him, with Barcelona and Any Saudi team priced at 6/17.00.

Liverpool can be backed at 15/28.50 to win the Premier League title, though Henderson's departure will leave them light in midfield. It's no surprise then to see Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia now as short as 8/151.53 to join Jurgen Klopp's team.
