The Dutch winger Steven Bergwijn sustained an injury during Al-Ittihad club's training, which led to his absence from participating in the recent friendly match against Al-Wehda.

The injury occurred during the training session on Sunday, causing the player to miss the friendly match held on Monday, raising questions about his readiness.

The coaching staff is awaiting Bergwijn's status for the upcoming match against Al-Hazm Club, as part of the 27th round of the Saudi Roshan League.

Press reports indicated that the player's injury is not serious, as he continued to follow a rehabilitation program that includes running with the ball and around the field individually.

According to sources, the coaching staff preferred to exclude him from group training as a precautionary measure, to give him enough time to recover.

Bergwijn is expected to return to group training before the match against Al-Hazm, provided his condition fully improves in the coming days.

This season, the player participated in 25 matches with Al-Ittihad, during which he scored 9 goals and provided 4 assists, making him an influential element in the attack line.
