Reports have confirmed the readiness of Brazilian midfielder Fabinho to participate with Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Super Cup, following his full recovery from the injury that recently sidelined him from the team.

Fabinho has participated in recent group training after successfully completing his rehabilitation program and regaining his physical fitness, allowing him to return to the team's list for the upcoming match.

The injury had kept the player from being present in Al-Ittihad's preparatory camp, but his quick response to treatment helped him catch up with the anticipated match against Al-Nassr.

Al-Ittihad continues its intensive preparations in anticipation of facing Al-Nassr in the semi-finals of the Saudi Super Cup, scheduled to take place on August 19 in Hong Kong.

Fabinho's return represents a significant boost for head coach Nuno Santo, who relies on the Brazilian player's experience in midfield to enhance the team's balance in critical encounters.
