Emergency Change in Al-Nassr's European Destination
The coaching staff of Al-Nassr Saudi Arabia, led by Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus, has decided to advance the team's departure from Austria due to adverse weather conditions that negatively impacted the preparation program for the new season.
The team left its camp in Austria today, Thursday, heading to the Portuguese capital, Lisbon, after heavy rains in Austria caused disruptions in daily training and increased the likelihood of player injuries.
The team was originally scheduled to depart for Portugal next Tuesday, but the coaching staff deemed the current situation in Austria unsuitable for continuing preparations, prompting the management to quickly respond to the coach's recommendations.
The team will hold a short camp in Lisbon for just four days before continuing its preparations in the Portuguese city of Faro, where it will play two friendly matches against Sheffield United and Almeria.
Al-Nassr is expected to return to the Saudi capital, Riyadh, on August 11, in preparation for the final phase of its preparations before the start of the new season's competitions.
