Born in Clichy near Paris to an Algerian father, Riyad Mahrez took an unfashionable path through Quimper and Le Havre before a roughly 450,000-pound move to Leicester City in 2014. There he became a Premier League champion and PFA Player of the Year in the fairytale 2015-16 title, then won four more league titles and the Champions League at Manchester City before moving to Al-Ahli. Algeria's captain and talisman, the left-footed winger led the nation to the 2019 AFCON title and carries their hopes at the World Cup.
- First African player to win the PFA Players' Player of the Year (2015-16)
- Reportedly thought Leicester City was a rugby club when he first signed
- Captained Algeria to the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations title
