Media reports have indicated that Mohammed Kanno, the Saudi national team's midfielder, will be sidelined for a period ranging from 10 to 14 days.

Sports journalist Hamid Al-Qarni announced that Kanno suffered a strain in the quadriceps muscle during the national team's recent training sessions.

Due to the injury, Kanno will be unable to participate in Saudi Arabia's matches against China on March 20, and then against Japan on the 25th of the same month.

Kanno's absence presents a significant challenge for French coach Hervé Renard in selecting a suitable replacement amidst the upcoming technical challenges.

Despite the setback, the fans are counting on the readiness of the substitutes and their ability to lead the Green Team to achieve results that meet the aspirations of its supporters.
