Inzaghi Excludes Al-Bulaihi from Al Hilal's Squad for the Match Against Damac
Italian coach Simone Inzaghi has excluded his defender Ali Al-Bulaihi from Al Hilal's squad for the match against Damac, scheduled for the 13th round of the Saudi Roshn League today, Sunday.
Damac will host Al Hilal at the Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz Sports City Stadium in Abha at 8:30 PM Mecca time, in an important match for both teams.
This marks the third consecutive exclusion of Al-Bulaihi, following his absence from Al-Hilal's matches against Al-Khaleej and Al-Kholood in the Saudi League, raising questions about the reasons for his non-participation.
Inzaghi relies on the duo of Hassan Tembakti and the Turkish player Yusuf Akcicek in defense to compensate for the absence of Al-Bulaihi, as well as the absence of the Senegalese Kalidou Koulibaly, who is participating with his national team in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
Al Hilal occupies second place in the Roshn League standings with 28 points, while Damac is in fourteenth place with 9 points, making the match crucial for both teams.
Inzaghi hopes to secure a victory to narrow the gap with the league leaders Al-Nassr and maintain Al-Hilal's chances of competing for the league title this season despite significant absences.
