United We Stand: The Dawn of a New Union on the Horizon
Expected Union Formation in Sight
Al-Ittihad coach Laurent Blanc will face Al-Ain in the 32nd round of the King’s Cup this evening. Today’s match is expected to be the first appearance of an Albanian player in the left-back position, benefiting from the Saudi Football Association’s decision not to limit the participation of foreigners from each team in the King’s Cup matches, which is in contrast to the league. The number of foreigners is limited to 8 only.
It is noteworthy that Al-Ittihad Club lost to its opponents Al-Hilal last Saturday by three goals to one in the fourth round of the Saudi Professional League Championship.
Expected Union Formation in Sight
Goalkeeper: Predrag Rajkovic.
Defenders: Muhannad al-Shankiti, Abdul-Ilah al-Omari, Saad al-Musa, Mario Mittag.
Midfielders: Fabinho, N’Golo Kante, Haussem Auer.
Forwards: Steven Bergwijn, Karim Benzema and Moussa Diaby.
