Al-Ettifaq resumes training with 5 players absent

Al-Ettifaq are set to resume their collective training tomorrow, Friday, after the Australian coach Arthur granted the players a week-long break following their victory over Ajman by two goals to nil.

Faris Al-Dhahnā players took advantage of the international break to rest and recover, working on regaining their physical and mental fitness before preparations for upcoming matches and tournaments begin.

The team will return with five players missing due to injuries, as they have been ruled out by the coaching staff during this phase. These players are Radhi Al-Otaibi and Khalid Al-Ghannam.

The injury list also includes Swedish player Jordan Larsson, Frenchman Moussa Dembélé, and winger Rayane Messi, posing a challenge for the coaching staff ahead of the continuation of the competitions.

Arthur Papas hopes to utilize the upcoming preparation period to prepare the available players and enhance their physical and technical levels, which will help Al-Ettifaq continue their positive results and compete in various competitions.
