Riyad Mahrez is aiming for personal distinction. He is nominated for the best player of the month for December along with Rico Lewis and Erling Haaland.
It looks like the latest World Cup break has done Riyad Mahrez some good. Indeed, he is beginning to gradually regain his best level.
Since Manchester City returned to official competition, the Algerian international has had three starts. Better, he provided great benefits. After playing his role well against Leeds United, he distinguished himself with a goal against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup. In the last match against Everton, he provided an assist, thus being one of the great architects of his team’s victory.
After a terrible slump, synonymous with a complicated start to the season, we can say that Riyadh is regaining color. The confidence of his trainer Pep Guardiola can only stimulate him psychologically in order to be even better in the future.
Mahrez nominated for best player of the month for December
Author of good performances in the last three games, Riyad Mahrez is nominated for the best player of the month for December. He is in contention with his teammates Rico Lewis and Erling Haaland. The player is aiming for this personal distinction which will do him good mentally but also motivate him more to continue to deliver great performances.
The capital of the national team will be called upon to improve its statistics in order to establish itself again as an essential element within the formation of Man City, as was the case last season. A season at the end of which he won the Premier League title with the Citizens.
It must be said that the comeback of Mahrez relieves the national coach Djamel Belmadi. The latter will bet a lot on his winger during the double confrontation against Niger next March, as part of the qualifiers for CAN-2023 in Côte d’Ivoire.
