Saud Abdulhamid Set to Miss Matches Against Manchester City and Liverpool

Saud Abdulhamid, the French Lens player and Saudi Arabia international, faces the risk of missing important fixtures with his team in January due to his commitment to the national team for the 2027 Asian Cup.

Lance will clash with Manchester City on January 20, 2027, in the seventh round of the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, coinciding with Saud's participation with the Saudi national team.

Saudi Arabia will host the AFC Asian Cup 2027 from January 7 to February 5, competing in Group A alongside Kuwait, Oman, and Palestine.

Saud Abdulhamid's participation against Manchester City appears extremely difficult, as he is tied to the Saudi national team during the continental tournament, where the Green Falcons aim to capitalize on home advantage and fan support.

The player faces the possibility of missing the match against Liverpool, scheduled for January 27, but his status for the game will be determined based on the Saudi national team's progress and results in the Asian Cup.

If the Green continues its journey and reaches the Round of 16, Saudi's return to France in time to participate against Liverpool will be difficult, complicating the player's schedule.

Lance is keeping a close eye on Saudi Abdulhamid's position during the Asian Championship, while the player hopes to juggle his international responsibilities with his ambitions at the French club, during a period marked by intense matches on both fronts.
