Qatar's Al-Shamal club has finally unveiled its major signing — a transfer that has put the team's name on everyone's lips more than ever and makes a potential clash with Esteghlal even more intriguing.
According to Sport Seh, the expectations are over and Qatar's Al Shamal Club has unveiled its big purchase, Riyad Mahrez. A star whose name is linked to brilliance in English football and the conquest of Europe's biggest club cups. The presence of such a figure in Qatar football is a significant event for the North.
Mahrez was one of the stars of Leicester City's golden generation. The team that celebrated the historic championship of the Premier League by passing the giants of English football. After that, he went to Manchester City and under Pep Guardiola, he won many honors, including the Champions League.
Al-Shamal has attracted the attention of Iranian football in a situation where the confrontation between this team and Tractor ended with a draw. A match that caused the name of Qatar's representative to be mentioned more than before in Iranian football circles.
Now, in the coming weeks, Esteghlal must also face Shamal according to the competition schedule. A match that can have its own attractions due to the presence of prominent names in Qatari football.
Recruiting a player with a history of winning the English Premier League and the European Champions League is, on paper, a big event for any club. In addition to his technical abilities, Mahrez also has the experience of participating in major tournaments and playing alongside the world's leading football stars. Features that can be valuable for a team like Shamal.
