Mahrez enjoyed a fabulous season last time out with Manchester City as he helped the club win a famous treble.

However, the winger left the Citizens in the summer.

He was one of the many players to be snapped up by the Saudi Pro League as he joined Al-Ahli.

Mahrez has since made five appearances in the Saudi Pro League, bagging two goals and two assists.
