Al-Ahli want to lure Mahrez to the Middle East and have reportedly offered the winger a contract worth £410,000 a week.
The Algerian has agreed the deal but is happy to stay at City so will not will not force through an exit.
Al-Ahli are now set to test the Treble winners’ resolve by submitting a £30million offer for Mahrez, report The Athletic.
City are not believed to be keen on letting the 32-year-old go despite his age and the fact he has just two years remaining on his contract.
Pep Guardiola reportedly wants to keep hold of Mahrez and Bernardo Silva, who is also attracting Saudi interest.
Mahrez has been a key player for City since a £60million move from Leicester in 2018.
The forward has scored 78 games in 236 games at the Etihad, winning four titles and a Champions League in the process.
City have already lost a senior figure in Ilkay Gundogan this summer, with the midfielder joining Barcelona.

Meanwhile, Kyle Walker also has a decision to make about his future amid interest from Bayern Munich.
Walker has a long-held ambition to play overseas – so the chance to move to Germany appeals.
He has just a year left on his £160,000-per-week deal but he was surprised by the two-year contract which has been drawn up for him by City.
Bayern have also offered the right-back a two-year deal with the option of a further 12 months.
