Is Riyad Mahrez Moving to Wydad Casablanca?

Recent media reports have revealed the truth behind the potential transfer of Algerian player Riyad Mahrez, the former Al Ahli Saudi player, to Wydad Casablanca during the current summer transfer window.

Saudi newspaper "Al-Riyadiyah" reported on Algerian sources that the completion of the transfer deal has been completely ruled out, confirming that it was merely a consideration from the Moroccan club without any official offer being made.

Reports suggest that Wydad's desire to acquire Algerian star Riyad Mahrez will encounter strong obstacles, as the player is being closely monitored by Italian club Roma, in addition to receiving enticing offers from several clubs in the Saudi league.

Reports have confirmed that the high skills of the Algerian striker and his long career filled with titles make it difficult for teams not belonging to major European leagues or wealthy Gulf leagues to secure his services at this time.
