One of the main managers of the feat of Manchester City on the Champions League 2020-2021 was the Riyad Mahrez. The 30-year-old winger scored three of the four goals with which the ‘citizen’ team eliminated Paris Saint Germain in the semifinals. Very close to the end of his fourth season at Etihad Stadium, the Algerian said he would like to close his career in the sky blue.
“I feel very good at City, and I don’t feel like looking elsewhere. I still don’t know what my situation will be, but I’m happy at City, and it’s the club I want to be at, ”he told RMC.
During his early years in football, Olympique de Marseille did not trust his talent and closed the doors on him. For that reason, Riyad had to make a name for himself in modest Le Havre. Today, considered one of the best in the world, there was talk of the possibility of stopping at the Stade Orange Vélodrome.
“People have talked about ending my career with Marseille, but it’s not something I think about. I want to finish my career in England, with City. I don’t see myself in Marseille “He commented on the latest links with the French team.
In the fight for the ‘Orejona’ against Chelsea FC Mahrez will face an old acquaintance: N’Golo Kante. Both shared a team in Leicester, champion of the Premier League 2015-2016.
“It is the most important game of any player and a dream for everyone. Better to have N’Golo Kante by your side than to play against you. He is a magnificent player, and also a friend of mine. But I’ll be on the phone to settle it before the final”, He commented.
