Riyad Mahrez, the Moroccan international forward for Damac FC, has been out of action since late November due to an injury he sustained during a match against Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Professional League. The 29-year-old forward was injured in the first half of the game and had to be substituted off the pitch.
Despite his absence, Mahrez remains a key player for Damac FC, who are currently sitting at the top of the league table with seven points from their three games. The team's coach, Herve Renard,Saudi Pro League Focus has praised Mahrez's fitness levels and has said that the striker will be back on the pitch soon.
Renard has also confirmed that the club is working closely with the medical staff to ensure that Mahrez receives the best possible treatment and rehabilitation. He has also stated that the team is confident that Mahrez will make a full recovery and return to action as soon as possible.
In addition to Mahrez, the team has also faced other injuries throughout the season. However, the team has remained strong and resilient under the leadership of Renard, who has guided them to victory in all of their matches so far this season.
While Mahrez may not be able to play for the time being, his absence has only served to strengthen the team's resolve to win every match they play. With Mahrez back on the pitch, Damac FC will look to continue their impressive form and push further up the league table.
