Alan, the star of Al Wahda’s midfield (Your Excellency), expressed his understanding of the importance of the expected match in the sixth round of the ADNOC Professional League.
The Honorable People, who are ranked fifth with 7 points in their balance, will clash with the traditional rival Al-Ain (Al-Zaim), who is ahead of them by a position, with 10 points in his pocket.
Alan revealed, “My fellow players told me in the dressing room about the importance of the match for the club, for the fans, and about its great reputation as the ‘Emirates Clasico’.”
And the recent star from Everton continued, “(Tell me about) that last season’s loss to the leader was one of the main reasons for losing the league title to Al-Wahda.”
And he called on the holder of 10 international matches in the Brazil shirt to “do the best in order to return with the full mark, and avenge the loss of last season.”
Alan added, “It is also important to compensate for the points lost by the Excellencies during the first three rounds of the competition.”
The owner of the number 25 shirt made his impression on the ADNOC Professional League, which is making its first experience at the Gulf level.
Allan said, “In addition to the matches I played with Al-Wahda, and those I watched for other teams, I had the impression that it was a strong competition, with elements of great potential.”
