The Riyad Mahrez Story, which charts the football journey of City's former electrifying winger, is now available to watch on KZhead!
Mahrez went on to win four Premier League titles, two FA Cups, three League Cups and one Community Shield, marking the end of his City career with Champions League glory, aiding in club history as we secured the Treble.
But what's his story?
Well, we find out in this City Studios documentary, which starts from his early beginnings at AAS Sarcelles to his trial at St Mirren, his move to first club Quimper and up the French leagues to Le Havre where he was scouted by Leicester City.
We look at his successful spell at the Foxes under Nigel Pearson and Claudio Ranieri, where he was a key member of the team that avoided relegation against all the odds before achieving the unthinkable the following season - winning the Premier League!
We also look at his move here to City and his life in the sky blue shirt.
The documentary also covers his international career and his undoubted highlight on that stage, winning the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) with Algeria in 2019.
You’ll hear from important people in his story, such as Erick Mombaerts, Pearson, N’Golo Kante, Islam Slimani, Wes Morgan, Steve Walsh, Ranieri, Bernardo Silva and Txiki Begiristain, as well as a host of other team-mates from former clubs.
This is one not to be missed.

not only Man City but the premier league will miss him. What a player
One of the best Premier League Wingers of all time
Caper
City really knows how to celebrate their players and legends..
Agree
Yeah by putting them as substitutes every day and by selling them to saudi arabia 😂😂😂😂😂
by underestimating em ! now city is on loss after loss
You call this player a legend ? 😅😅😅😅
Yeah, after letting them go 🤣
My all-time favorite City Player. What a baller he is.
Me too 😍💯
Call me weird but i was really scared if he were to leave to another European club and we might actually face him. Riyad was one of the most underrated wingers in the Prem. Hats off to you my man!
don't exaggerate, he was a good winger, but there was nothing supernatural about him, plus he was slow and lacked explosiveness!! The same Sane, Bernardo, Sterling, Jesus were sometimes more productive than him! I'm really surprised they made a movie about him
Hello, say: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. These words make you a servant of Allah ........ ........
@@user-hw4hm4qi1zOh please, Mahrez was one of the best wingers City ever had, obviously they would make a movie about him, even when he was benched consistently, he still delivered goals and assists.
@@user-hw4hm4qi1z The truth is mahrez was always scoring in tough games and finals . He is a dribbler which and good passer
@@user-hw4hm4qi1zplease check his numbers per season. My man was averaging a goal or assist per 90. Some players are explosive with no end product, Riyad is miles better than Jack
No matter how many documentaries City have made for Mahrez, it won't change the fact that he's never respected and cherished by Pep Guardiola and most City supporters. He had totally changed his playing style to suit Guardiola's football philosophy but still always got benched even he's on fire. And he's always the first to be blamed and abused by City supporters (especially on City fanbase like Bluemoon Forum) even he did nothing wrong. Zero second on both cup finals last season (even he scored a hat trick in the FA cup semi final) is what he got after he gave his all and this is how Guardiola treated a loyal player who wanted to end his career at City.
Thats exactly what was going through my mind as I watched the documentary. If he was truly cherished and loved by pep like he was by Ranieri, he could've provided much more to city. What really hurts, is that he was not given a single f**** minute in the FA final and Champions League, which he dreamt of winning. Btw, all of his past coaches spoke about riyad in this documentary except PEP!
Pure facts tbh 😢 what a shame
@user-ve6os9gu8w : When the time comes for city regrets, they will dress in gray and eat their black bread. This will only be justice for Riyad MAHREZ .
that's exactly what comes to my mind, why pep didn't participate in the documentary like all coaches did, his arrogancy won't allow him or what?@@joseben230
Gerat talk 🦜
He was one of our best signings, right up there for what he's done for this team over the seasons.
Mahrez , the king from Algeria in a kingdom of CITY Respect the Legend 🙏🙏🙏
he was soo good for us,never showed bad attitude and was soo reliable ,that silky touch and left foot finish black gloves ,blue city shirt, champions league night you know he was about to ball we love him and miss him💙

To think that Riyad wanted to play in Ligue 1 , but went to leicester city , which he was pushing off at first , to then win the prem in one of the most iconic and memorable fashion , and then take off further , what a story , plus him and Kante both non academy , street ballers making it , what a sport man
UNDISPUTED PLAYER huge part of our UCL wining journey Best of luck Riyad❤

I will never forget Mahrez winner goal against Tottenham when he was at Leicester 😢
He needed proper send off like Gundo, great players 🎉
Yes mon fréro
it is nice of City that they made a clip for him, which he really deserved. Hope he is making the big buck he wants.
I hope so too .. making $ is better than be with ungrateful people
No one puts the ball down from up there like this guy.... A touch of class...❤❤. Love you Riyad
Technically by far the best player in the world, it's a shame that he no longer plays for Manchester City! I saw Egypt-Algeria 1-1 and when I saw him play, my heart opened again! Incredible player and a good boy! It's really a shame that he doesn't play for City anymore!
First touch king 👑💙
قصة كفاح نالت النجاح 🔥💖وليد بلادي 🇩🇿💪

European football misses you very much, the magician of the king of control and the owner of the Leicester City miracle
Someday just remember guys we have: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Stones, Akanji, Rodri, Gundo, Kdb, Bernardo, Haaland, Grealish on starting 11 and we have Ortega, Ake, Laporte, Mahrez, Alvarez and Foden on bench. What a dream team we have💙
