A Surprising Move by Al-Ahly Management Towards Team Players
The management of Al-Ahli Club has taken a new organizational step by relocating the families of several first-team football players from Dubai, UAE, to Jeddah, with support and coordination from the Saudi Ministry of Sports.
The decision came after some families of Al-Ahly players became accustomed to residing between the UAE and Saudi Arabia, taking advantage of the proximity between the two countries and the ease of travel during the sports season.
Media reports indicated that this step was taken as a precautionary measure amidst the escalating political tensions in the region in recent times.
The trusted journalist Ben Jacobs noted on his account on the "X" platform that the families were transported by air from Dubai to Jeddah to ensure complete stability for the players during the current phase.
In a similar context, the same source revealed that the management of Al-Ettifaq Club took a similar measure by relocating the families of several of its professional players from Bahrain to the city of Dammam.
This step included the families of players Georginio Wijnaldum, Jack Hendry, and Ondrej Duda, with the aim of providing a more stable environment for them in the coming period.
On the other hand, Al-Ahli team continues its preparations to face Al-Qadisiyah in the match scheduled for next Friday evening at Prince Mohammed bin Fahd Stadium in Dammam, as part of the 26th round of the Saudi Roshn League.
Al-Ahli occupies the second place in the Saudi League standings with 62 points, two points behind the leader Al-Nassr, while Al-Qadisiyah is in fourth place with 57 points, which increases the importance of the upcoming match between the two teams.
