Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez has completed his move to Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli in a deal worth up to £30m.

Riyad Mahrez, 32-year-old Algerian international has signed a three-year contract with the club, with a conditional fourth year.

Mahrez was left out of City's pre-season tour squad, and the deal was finalized after advanced talks between the two clubs.

Mahrez joined City from Leicester City in 2018 for a club-record fee of £60m and went on to win three Premier League titles, four League Cups, and the FA Cup.
