The Spanish coach Immanuel Al-Juasil emphasized that the participation of Moroccan striker Abderrazak Hamdallah is legal, clarifying that he is officially registered in the team's roster after completing his loan period with Al-Hilal last July.

During the press conference held on Wednesday to discuss the match against Al-Khaleej in the opening of the Saudi Roshan League, Al-Juasil explained that Hamdallah has become a key element in the team, and there are no legal obstacles preventing his official participation.

The Spanish coach added that the first round match will be important and special, as it takes place on Al-Shabab's home ground and in front of their fans, confirming that the team aims to deliver a strong performance that translates into a positive result at the start of the journey.

He also pointed out that it is still early to talk about competing for titles, given that there are Saudi teams with levels that qualify them to play in European tournaments, but he stressed that his goal is to build a cohesive team capable of competing gradually.

Regarding the readiness of the young players, Al-Juasil confirmed that he prefers to work with emerging players due to their enthusiasm and energy, noting that some of them will have the opportunity to participate in the first round to prove their abilities.

He also spoke about the preparation camp, indicating that the team faced some obstacles, such as the readiness of the pitches, but the coaching staff dealt with them well, allowing the team to gain significant benefits and better preparation for the new season.
