Riyad Mahrez seeks Serie A opportunities after leaving Al-Ahli

Summary

Riyad Mahrez is now a free agent following the termination of his contract with Al-Ahli. The former Manchester City winger is reportedly exploring options in Serie A, though opportunities appear limited. Roma, Juventus, Inter, Como, and Milan are among the clubs linked, but each has specific constraints or roster priorities. Mahrez, at 35, remains a seasoned player, yet finding a suitable fit may prove challenging as clubs focus on other signings.
