DZWatch Exclusive: Algerian football star Riyad Mahrez has become a father again, welcoming a son named Ahmed, reports indicate. The name is a touching tribute to Mahrez’s late father.
British media outlets initially broke the news of the birth. The Algerian captain, affectionately known as ‘Le Fennec,’ now has four children. He has three daughters: two from his first marriage and one with his current wife, Taylor Ward. The arrival of baby Ahmed marks the first son for the Manchester City winger.
In related news, national team coach Vladimir Petkovic has reportedly excused Mahrez from the upcoming friendly match against Zimbabwe. However, sources confirm that Mahrez is expected to join the squad for the subsequent match against Saudi Arabia. This decision allows the captain time to spend with his newborn son and family.
DZWatch extends its congratulations to Riyad Mahrez and his family on this joyous occasion. We wish them all the best as they welcome their newest member.
