Riyad Mahrez, the former captain of the Algerian national team, responded in his own way after being omitted from the squad twice by coach Vladimir Petkovic.
The official SPL Fantasy account recently announced the candidates in contention for Player of the Season, with Algeria’s captain Riyad Mahrez among them. A prominent player for Al-Ahli, Mahrez finds himself competing directly with global stars including Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Al-Nassr.
Alongside Mahrez and Ronaldo, Moroccan Abdelrazak Hamdallah of Ittihad and Serbian Aleksandar Mitrović of Al-Hilal complete the list of contenders for this prestigious award.
As fan voting continues, Mitrović currently leads with 35.9% of the votes. Ronaldo follows closely with 34%, while Mahrez, at 14.6%, holds fourth place less than 24 hours before voting closes.
This nomination underscores Mahrez’s significant impact since joining Saudi Arabia. His on-field performance and leadership have clearly made a mark despite stiff competition.
