Koulibaly Fights to Catch Up for the Cup Final as Al Hilal Awaits a Decision
Friday 17-04-2026
The Senegalese defender Kalidou Koulibaly continues intensive work to recover from his injury, in an attempt to be ready for the anticipated match against Al-Hilal in the King's Cup final against Al-Kholood.

Koulibaly is currently undergoing an intensive rehabilitation program, supervised by the medical team, with the aim of regaining his physical readiness as quickly as possible before the crucial match.

The player sustained an injury to the front thigh muscle before the match against Al-Sadd, which led to his absence in recent times and increased the coaching staff's concerns.

The medical team is racing against time to prepare the player, given his significant importance in the defensive line, especially in a final match that demands the highest level of readiness.

In a related context, the Al Hilal team returned to group training after a break granted by coach Simone Inzaghi following their Asian exit.

The coaching staff is awaiting the final decision regarding Koulibaly's participation, as his condition remains unclear at this time.

Al Hilal is preparing to face Al Khulood on April 23, in a match where the team aims to make up for their continental setback and secure an important local title.
