Conceição Turns the Tables and Thwarts Swap Deal with Al-Hilal
Portuguese coach Sérgio Conceição, the head coach of Al-Ittihad Club, has halted the progress of a proposed swap deal with Al-Hilal Club during the current winter transfer window.
The Saudi newspaper "Al-Yaum" revealed that Conceição directly rejected the transfer of Abdulrahman Al-Aboud to Al-Hilal, in exchange for Al-Ittihad acquiring the services of defender Ali Al-Bulaihi.
The decision of the Al-Ittihad coach came despite Al-Aboud's absence from recent matches, due to disciplinary measures within the team during the past period.
Conceição insists on keeping Al-Aboud consistently within Al-Ameed's squad, considering him an important element in his tactical plans for the upcoming period.
Meanwhile, Al-Ittihad Club continues its search for local reinforcements in the defense and midfield positions, based on the technical vision of the Portuguese coach.
The swap deal fell through despite positive signs in the negotiations between the two clubs, before Conceição intervened and settled the matter.
Al-Ittihad had drawn 1-1 with Damac in the fifteenth round of the Saudi Pro League, which increased the technical pressure ahead of the remainder of the season.
