The Moroccan international Youssef En-Nesyri, striker for Al-Ittihad Saudi Club, returned to his team's group training on Wednesday evening after only running around the field during Tuesday's session, as decided by the coaching staff, in a move aimed at preventing fatigue.

The training session was held at the club's stadium in Jeddah, where the player appeared ready to feature in the anticipated match against Al-Riyadh Club, scheduled for Friday as part of the 26th round of the Saudi Roshn League, which is held under the slogan "Flag Day Round."

Technical preparations led by Conceição.

The Portuguese coach Sérgio Conceição led the training session, focusing on the physical and technical aspects of the players, before concluding the practice with a football scrimmage conducted on half the field between two groups of team members.

The team is expected to hold its final training session on Thursday afternoon at the club's stadium before flying to Riyadh in preparation for the match.

A confrontation to make up for the derby loss.

Al-Ittihad, the reigning league champion and currently sixth in the standings, will visit Al-Riyadh Club in a match to be held at Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium in the Saudi capital.

The Ittihad team enters the match seeking to return to the path of victories after losing in the last round to Al-Ahli Saudi with a score of 3-1 in the Jeddah Derby, while Al-Riyadh Club aims to correct its course following a 3-0 defeat to Damac.
