Al Ahli Close to Parting Ways with Riyad Mahrez

Al Ahli Saudi Club is on the verge of officially announcing Riyad Mahrez's departure after reaching a final agreement on all terms for contract termination between the two parties.

Sources close to the club confirmed that the management activated the clause to end the contract with the Algerian player, in exchange for a financial compensation of up to $15 million.

This move is part of a comprehensive restructuring plan within the team, aimed at preparing the squad for the new sports season and building a different technical project.

Reports indicate that the agreement between Al Ahli and Mahrez was reached amicably, with full respect for the relationship that existed between the two during his time at the club.

The Algerian star is currently attracting interest from several clubs, notably Al Diriyah, which is awaiting to finalize its position before entering official negotiations.

This development comes just days after Riyad Mahrez announced his retirement from international play with the Algerian national team, opening the door for speculation about his future on the pitch in the upcoming phase.

An official statement from Al Ahli is expected in the coming hours to confirm the details of the departure and the final termination of the contractual relationship.

In a related context, the Algerian star previously announced his retirement from international play after being eliminated from the World Cup by the Swiss national team.
