He was then instrumental in their unlikely title triumph in 2016, scoring 17 goals, before handing in a transfer request at the end of May this year.

“I think we have to look what is behind that as well, in terms of advice.

“We have to understand Riyad’s concerns but while he is contracted to the football club, and while we’ve had no bids for him, which we haven’t, he has to be professional and we have to be professional.

“He has to be fully committed here and I expect him to do that.”
