The German coach Matthias Yaissle, the head coach of Al-Ahli Club, has settled on the Brazilian winger Galeno's participation in the match against Qatari Al-Sadd scheduled for Tuesday evening as part of the AFC Champions League elite competition.

The newspaper "Al-Riyadiyah" indicated that Yaissle plans to place Galeno on the bench against Al-Sadd, preferring not to include him in the starting lineup given his recent return from injury and his need for a gradual return to matches.

Galeno was included in the Al-Ahli squad heading to Doha after the player received the green light from the medical staff following the completion of his treatment program and his return to full team training.

The German coach is considering giving Galeno limited minutes during the match, aiming to rehabilitate him gradually and provide him the opportunity to regain match sensitivity after a period of forced absence.

The player had suffered a strong bruise to the knee during the match against Al-Ettifaq in the second round of the Roshan Saudi League on September 12, which caused him to miss participation for a while.

Galeno faced a setback in his injury again during the match against Egyptian Pyramids in the Tri-Nations Cup, continuing his recovery journey until he became physically ready to return.

The Brazilian winger has played six matches with Al-Ahli across various competitions this season, totaling 381 minutes without any goal contributions, and the coaching staff hopes to see him gradually regain his form in the upcoming matches.
