Sunday 15-02-2026
The German Matthias Jaissle, the coach of Al-Ahli, revealed his stance on a potential rotation during the match against Shabab Al-Ahli in the AFC Champions League for the elite, after securing qualification.

Yaisle explained in the press conference that returning to Asian participation is a positive matter for the team, especially with the special memories achieved in the previous edition.

He added that maintaining a good ranking remains important, but renewing energy is a key factor, which might lead him to rest some players and give others the opportunity to maintain physical readiness.

The German coach confirmed that the technical staff is continuously working on preparing all the elements to ensure the highest level of readiness in the upcoming phase.

For his part, goalkeeper Abdulrahman Al-Sanbi emphasized that Al-Ahli is entering the match with the ambition of achieving a positive result, despite having already secured a spot in the next round.

Al-Sanabi pointed out that seizing any opportunity to participate is an important step towards representing the Saudi national team in the future, noting that Al-Ahli is in second place with 14 points, tied on goal difference with Iran's Tractor and the UAE's Al-Wahda.
