Al-Buraikan's stance on Al Ahly's clash against Al Nassr

Al Ahly FC is intensifying its efforts to determine Feras Al-Buraikan's participation in the upcoming classic against Al Nassr, scheduled for next Friday at the Al-Inma Stadium, as part of the postponed match from the ninth round of the Saudi Pro League.

Al Ahly FC fans fear the absence of the international striker for the match due to his travel to the Thai capital for the AFC Awards ceremony, scheduled for Thursday, just 24 hours before the game.

The administration is coordinating Feras Al-Buraikan's return trip to Jeddah immediately after the ceremony, while studying available flight schedules to ensure he arrives before the match.

The player attends the ceremony as one of the nominees for the 2026 AFC Player of the Year award, alongside Salem Al-Dawsari, the captain of Al Hilal, and Iranian goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand.

Al Ahly FC are awaiting the final decision regarding the return of Feras Al-Buraikan, given the importance of the upcoming clash against Al Nassr and the team's need for their international striker's services during the anticipated clásico.
