Football fans have made fun of RIYAD MAHREZ for telling his wife about his transfer to Saudi Arabia in a cold-blooded manner.

Mahrez, 32, left Manchester City for Al-Ahli, a Saudi Pro League team, in the Middle East last summer.

Furthermore, a new reality program titled “Married To The Game” on Prime Video unveils the lives of women who date or are married to Premier League players.

Mahrez and his partner Taylor Ward are part of this ensemble.

News of Mahrez’s move to Saudi Arabia had Taylor tearful

Before Mahrez made a brutal rebuttal

Taylor, 26, is the daughter of Real Housewives of Cheshire actress Dawn and former Premier League player Ashley. She married Mahrez in 2022 but remarried in September of last year, as depicted in the series.

Mahrez ended his career with Man City after five years, during which he won four Premier League trophies, in order to seek a massive move to Saudi Arabia.

But as the document makes clear, Taylor was not happy about the relocation.

The show’s trailer, which debuts on February 23, features Mahrez and Taylor talking about the relocation.

Taylor is shown crying a little bit before stating, “Riyad rung me and basically told me ‘we’re moving to Saudi’.”

She continues: “I’m going to be sat here at home on my own.”

Then Mahrez replies savagely, “It’s part of the game isn’t it.”

Following the clip’s release on X, the former name of Twitter, people couldn’t resist making fun of the Leicester title winner.

One admirer posted in the comments, saying, “Part of the game innit lmao.”

Another stated: “Mahrez I had never heard of your game before.”

Another said, “New meme incoming.”

One more person remarked, “You just have to respect the game.”

“Motivational from Riyad Mahrez 😭,” a fifth person commented.

The sixth person commented, “Bro said that line like a topboy scene LOOOL.”

In the documentary, Jorginho, Matt Turner, James Tarkowski, and Ilkay Gundogan are among the other celebrities with their partners.
