Al-Aboud Closes the Page on Penalty and Returns to Al-Ittihad Before the Clasico
Thursday 19-02-2026
Al-Ittihad regained the services of its player Abdulrahman Al-Aboud after it was decided that he would join the group training on Thursday evening, ending an absence that lasted nearly two months.

The newspaper "Al-Riyadiyah" confirmed that Al-Aboud will appear in the group training after a disciplinary penalty was imposed by the Portuguese coach Sergio Conceicao in the past period.

The player's last appearance in the Al-Ittihad jersey was against Nasaf in the group stage of the AFC Champions League for the elite, when he came on as a substitute in a match held on December 23rd of last year.

During the suspension period, Al-Aboud missed 17 official matches, only performing individual training away from the main group due to a technical decision.

His return comes at a crucial time before the anticipated match against Al Hilal, as part of the 23rd round of the Saudi Professional League.

Al-Ittihad currently holds the sixth position with 36 points, while Al-Hilal tops the standings with 53 points, giving the Clasico a decisive character in the competition race.
