Riad made his first team – and La Liga – debut for Barcelona on 8 November 2022, replacing goalscorer Pedri late into a 2–1 away success over CA Osasuna.[8] He was an undisputed starter for Rafael Márquez's B-side during the campaign, scoring three goals in 37 matches overall as the side missed out promotion in the play-offs.[9]
