Mahrez and Mendy have eventually been reunited at Manchester City, five years after the two left-footed players took the field together in Ligue 2 at Le Havre.

Mahrez moved to the Normandy-based outfit in 2010, initially playing for the club’s reserve side before establishing himself in the first team. Mendy, meanwhile, joined the Ciel et Marine as a 13-year-old in 2007 before spending two seasons in the senior squad between 2011 and 2013.

Mendy got his big move to Marseille that summer, while Mahrez joined then-Championship side Leicester for just £450k in January 2014.
