Leicester captain Wes Morgan has told Riyad Mahrez to ignore the continued speculation over his future and wants the winger to follow Jamie Vardy's example in committing his future to the Premier League champions.
Boss Claudio Ranieri has repeatedly said he expects last season's PFA Player of the Year to stay at the King Power Stadium having already lost N'Golo Kante to Chelsea.
And with Arsenal linked with a move for the 25-year-old, Morgan has urged the Algeria international to stay focused on the Foxes.
"I'm sure it's expected, we won the league and the bigger teams are going to try and poach our best players," he told ESPN FC.
"You know, as a player, you can't really take much notice to that. We just have to do what we do best. Get on the training field, and keep focus on our job.
"There is going to be speculation and it's sad to see N'Golo Kante go but we've got new players in now and everyone is settled in well and we're just training hard and looking forward to the season."
Leicester are in Los Angeles ahead of Saturday's International Champions Cup match against PSG, having beaten Celtic on penalties at the weekend. They also face Barcelona in Stockholm on Wednesday August 3 ahead of the Community Shield against Manchester United on August 7.
"It's probably the best test you can get, Barcelona speaks for itself," added Morgan. "I'm really looking forward to that. And PSG, they're a great team also.
"We'll try our best. We know it's not going to be easy, but we know what we're capable of and on our day we know how good we can be so we're looking for the right result, definitely."
