Tomorrow, Al-Ghannam returns to Al Riyadh after completing treatment sessions in Qatar
Sultan Al-Ghannam, Al Nassr player, has completed his final therapy sessions at the Aspetar center in Doha, Qatar, today, Thursday. He is getting closer to completing his rehabilitation program and returning to the pitch.
Al-Ghannam is expected to arrive in Al Riyadh tomorrow, Friday, in coordination with the club's medical staff, to begin the final stage of rehabilitation at Al Nassr's medical clinic.
The player has passed the previous three stages of his program after undergoing surgery on his anterior cruciate ligament in Doha, and then moved on to running drills and strengthening exercises for the injured knee under the supervision of the treating physician at "Aspetar."
Al-Ghannam underwent surgery on June 17, under the care of Dr. Peter Verdonk, at the same medical center, following the injury he sustained during the AFC Asian Cup final.
The injury occurred during the match against Gamba Osaka, which ended in a defeat for Al Nassr by one goal to nil on May 16, at the Al Awal Park in Al Riyadh, where the Japanese team claimed the title.
Sultan Al-Ghannam joined Al Nassr in the summer of 2018 from Al Faisaly, on a contract that lasted five seasons, before the club extended the player's contract in October 2023 until 2028.
The player has made 292 appearances for Al Nassr, scoring 14 goals and providing 42 assists. In the current season, he has participated in 45 matches, without scoring any goals, while creating two goals and receiving five yellow cards.
