Alioski's joining came after a period of strong performances in Saudi stadiums, where he proved himself as one of the top players in the left-back position, thanks to his offensive and defensive abilities that provided his team with an advantage on many occasions.

The numbers confirm the player's excellence, as he played 74 matches with Al-Ahli across various competitions, scoring 6 goals, in addition to assisting 10 goals and creating dangerous chances, making him a valuable acquisition for the Swiss team.

Alioski's contributions were not limited to the offensive side; he also delivered impressive defensive performances, successfully executing 40 tackles, intercepting 19 shots, and standing out with 1,347 successful passes and 88 accurate long balls.
