Saudi club Al Hilal officially announced that their international Moroccan goalkeeper Yassine Bounou missed the group training held on Sunday due to a shoulder injury.

The club clarified that Bono underwent medical examinations, along with a special treatment program, without disclosing additional details regarding the nature of the injury or the duration of his absence. This has caused a sense of anticipation within the team's corridors given the upcoming commitments.

The absence of the Moroccan goalkeeper comes at a critical time, as Al Hilal prepares to face a strong challenge against Shabab Al Ahli Dubai on Monday evening, as part of the seventh round of the group stage in the AFC Champions League for the elite. The Saudi team aims to continue its positive results and strengthen its position at the top of the group.

Al-Hilal tops Group B with 18 points, having won all of its last six matches, clearly indicating its technical stability and readiness for continental competition.
