Fahd Sindi, the president of Ittihad Club, spoke about Hossam Aouar, defending the player's recent decline in performance.

Fahd Sindi responded to a question from a fan about protecting some players who contributed to the departure of Laurent Blanc, including Hossam Aouar, saying: "Hossam is one of the most wonderful players in terms of character and performance, and the decline in performance reflects on the group, not individuals. I have no doubt that the Ittihad fans are aware and eager to support the team, especially during times of performance decline."

The player is currently continuing his rehabilitation and treatment program to recover from the muscle injury he sustained in the match against Al-Nassr.

Ittihad is preparing to face Al-Fayha on Friday, October 17, as part of the fifth round of the Roshen Saudi League.
