Manchester Cityâs training ground had a touch of nostalgia this week as former winger Riyad Mahrez made an unexpected appearance, reuniting with old team-mates and staff. The 34-year-old, remembered as one of the defining figures of Cityâs dominant era, was spotted walking through the Etihad Campus, exchanging warm greetings and laughter with familiar faces.
Riyad Mahrez is in awe of âextraordinaryâ Saudi Pro League rival Cristiano Ronaldo, with the Al-Ahli star admitting it âisnât easyâ to be CR7.
Former Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino is all set to leave Saudi Pro League giants Al-Ahli as he has agreed to join Qatari side Al Sadd. Firmino, who left the Reds in 2023 to join Al Ahli, spent two seasons at the Saudi club and was an integral part of the squad that won the AFC Champions League this year. The Brazilian left the club despite having a year left on his existing deal.
Inter Miami are "extremely confident" of tying Lionel Messi to a new contract despite strong interest from Saudi Pro League giants Al-Ahli. Messi, who joined the Herons in the summer of 2023, has an active contract with the club until the end of the 2025, however, the David Beckham-owned side want to retain the Argentina legend beyond this year.
