Al-Harifi Criticizes Stefano Pioli

Fahad Al-Harifi, the former star of Al-Nassr, directed criticism at Stefano Pioli, the coach of the team, confirming that the club needs significant improvements.

Al-Harifi stated through his program "Face Al-Harifi" on "Al-Arabiya FM": "Al-Nassr is a big club with a large fan base, but there is always a kind of division among them, and their ambitions are always high."

He explained: "There should be a reality for this team; it lacks a lot, especially since it is approaching a major tournament. Al-Nassr needs a coach who creates a specific approach for it, and it lacks many things to be better in the upcoming season."

He added: "I must be honest with Al-Nassr fans and my entity. Al-Nassr is still dealing with coach Pioli, who focuses on making one player successful over the group, which is why there are significant differences between him and Al-Hilal, which has wingers, playmakers, and flanks, as well as multiple approaches in strategy and tactics."

He confirmed: "Even Al-Ahli has become strong due to the completeness of its elements, especially with the arrival of Galeno. The team has developed a winning culture, and this is what we hope for Al-Nassr. I hope Al-Nassr goes far in the tournaments, but it needs significant improvements."
