Timeline

1991

Riyad Karim Mahrez (رياض كريم محرز; born 21 February 1991) is a professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Saudi Pro League club Al-Ahli and captains the Algeria national team.

Mahrez began his career as a youth player for French club AAS Sarcelles.

2004

He joined AAS Sarcelles in 2004.

He had a two-month trial at Scottish club St Mirren, but left due to the cold weather.

2009

He turned professional in 2009 with Quimper, where he played for only one season before moving to Le Havre, spending a total of three years with them, initially playing for their reserve team and then becoming a first-team regular.

In 2009, Mahrez joined CFA side Quimper from AAS Sarcelles, making 22 appearances and scoring 2 goals in his first season with the club.

While playing for Quimper he lived with Mathias Pogba.

2010

He joined Le Havre in 2010, turning down offers from leading French teams Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille to join them, being enticed by their youth system.

2011

He initially played for their reserve team, Le Havre II, before going on to play 60 times and score 6 goals for the first team in the French Ligue 2 from 2011 until leaving in January 2014.

He criticised Ligue 2 for what he saw as a reliance on defence and teams aiming for a goalless draw in every match.

While Mahrez was playing for Le Havre, English Championship club Leicester City's scout Steve Walsh was monitoring teammate Ryan Mendes, but was instead impressed by Mahrez.

Mahrez had never heard of Leicester, whom he initially presumed to be a rugby club.

2014

In January 2014, Mahrez signed for English side Leicester City, helping them win the Championship and promotion to the Premier League at the end of his first season.

Born in France, Mahrez made his international debut for Algeria in 2014, representing the nation at the 2014 FIFA World Cup as well as the Africa Cup of Nations in 2015, 2017, 2019, 2021 and 2023, winning the 2019 tournament.

On 11 January 2014, he was signed by Leicester City on a three-and-a-half-year contract for around £450,000.

His friends and family were initially sceptical of a move to English football due to its physical nature, believing that his style of play would be more suited to Spain.

Mahrez made his debut on 25 January 2014, coming on in the 79th minute as a substitute replacing fellow winger Lloyd Dyer, in the 2–0 win against Middlesbrough.

After making four substitute appearances for Leicester, including scoring his first goal for the club, an 82nd-minute equaliser against local rivals Nottingham Forest, manager Nigel Pearson announced in February 2014 that he thought Mahrez was ready to start games.

Leicester ended the season as winners of the Championship, returning to the Premier League for the first time in ten years.

Mahrez made his Premier League debut on 16 August 2014, and scored his first goal in the division on 4 October 2014 in a 2–2 draw with Burnley.

Mahrez was part of the Leicester team that won seven of its final nine matches of the season to avoid relegation to the Football League.

He scored both goals in a 2–0 defeat of Southampton on 9 May and ended the season with four goals and three assists from 30 appearances.

2015

In the 2015–16 season, he was the Algerian Footballer of the Year, the PFA Players' Player of the Year, and was a member of the Premier League PFA Team of the Year as he helped Leicester City win the Premier League.

He signed a new four-year contract with Leicester in August 2015.

On 8 August 2015, Mahrez scored two goals in the season opener against Sunderland in a 4–2 home win.

He was later described as the club's "match winner" by captain Wes Morgan, following "superb form" which saw him score four goals in the first three games of the season.

After scoring four goals in the opening four games of the 2015–16 season, Mahrez was nominated for the Premier League Player of the Month award.

By 3 November 2015, he had scored seven goals in 10 Premier League games.

On 5 December, Mahrez scored a hat-trick as Leicester defeated Swansea City 3–0 to go top of the Premier League, putting him on ten league goals for the season and making him the first Algerian to score a Premier League hat-trick.

2016

In 2016, he was named CAF's African Footballer of the Year.

Mahrez was born in Sarcelles, France, to an Algerian father and a mother of Algerian and Moroccan descent.

His father Ahmed was from Beni Snous, Tlemcen District.

Growing up, Mahrez would regularly spend his holidays in Algeria.

His childhood friends included fellow footballers such as Wissam Ben Yedder.

Mahrez's father had played football in Algeria.

When Mahrez was fifteen, his father died of a heart attack.

He reflected that "I don't know if I started to be more serious but after the death of my dad things started to go for me. Maybe in my head, I wanted it more".

Although often overlooked by teams due to his slender build, Mahrez developed ball skills that brought him attention.

2018

Mahrez signed for Manchester City in 2018, winning the Premier League, FA Cup and EFL Cup in his first season.

He has gone on to win a further four league titles, one FA Cup, two EFL Cups and a UEFA Champions League in 2022–23 as part of a continental treble whilst at City.
