Jesus Upsets Al-Nassr's Plans After Decision to Postpone the Tenth Round
Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus reshuffled his lineup at Saudi club Al-Nassr after the league association announced the postponement of the tenth round matches to the period between February 22 and 25, instead of their original schedule in December.
The coach is considering playing one or two friendly matches during the break period to maintain the players' readiness, according to what the Saudi newspaper Al-Riyadiyah revealed about his new plan for the team.
Jesus is expected to begin discussions about the friendly matches with the administrative staff as soon as the team returns to training on Saturday, following the break the players received after the end of the Abu Dhabi camp.
The Portuguese coach is looking to take advantage of the extended break period to improve the team's physical and technical performance, especially after its extension, to ensure optimal readiness before the official competitions resume.
Al-Nassr is preparing to face Iraq's Al-Zawraa on December 24th in the AFC Champions League 2, at Al-Orobah Park Stadium in Riyadh, in an important test before returning to league matches.
The team concluded its training camp in the UAE with a friendly win over Al Wahda, 4-2, while continuing to lead the Roshn League with 27 points after nine rounds.
