Martinelli under assessment before returning to Al Hilal training

Al Hilal's coaching staff, led by Italian Simone Inzaghi, is awaiting the results of the medical and physical assessment of Brazilian winger Gabriel Martinelli to determine when he will return to team training.

Gabriel Martinelli has suffered a hamstring injury during the match between Al Hilal and Al-Qadisiyah, in the 11th round of the Saudi Pro League, causing him to miss participation with the team.

Al Hilal will resume collective training tomorrow evening after a break coinciding with the international stoppage. The Brazilian winger will undergo special tests.

Medical and physical examinations aim to assess the player's recovery and evaluate the results of the treatment program he underwent in the past period, before a decision is made regarding his return to training.

Al Hilal are set to face Neftchi Fergana on November 23, in the AFC Champions League Elite, before meeting Al-Ettifaq on the 28th of the same month in the next round of the Saudi Pro League.
