Milinković-Savić's status ahead of Al-Hilal's clash with Al-Sadd

Al-Hilal have received an important boost ahead of their upcoming clash against Al-Sadd, with midfielder Sergej Milinković-Savić returning to fitness and ready to participate in the AFC Champions League match scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday.

Sergej Milinković-Savić participated in the team's training session this morning, confirming his recovery and readiness to return to the coach's plans after missing the recent match against Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League classic.

Sergej Milinković-Savić missed the match against Al-Ittihad due to not completing his rehabilitation program after an injury sustained while with his national team during the last international break.

Al-Hilal are set to face Al-Sadd at the Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium in the Qatari capital Doha, in the second round of the Western Phase of the AFC Champions League Elite for the 2026-2027 season.

The return of Milinković-Savić is an important addition to Al-Hilal's options ahead of the Asian test, as the team seeks to continue its positive results and compete strongly for the continental title, benefiting from the readiness of its key players.
