The federation’s management is awaiting a response from the Saudi Football Federation to its request to address the void expected to be left by summoning players from the first team and lower divisions to the Saudi Olympic team camp, which is scheduled to be launched at the beginning of next April, in preparation for the U-23 Asian Cup, mid-month in Qatar.
According to Al-Riyadiya sources, the federation’s management stated that it is facing the dilemma of the association of a number of its team’s players with the Green Camp for the Asian Championship that qualifies for the Paris Olympics, coinciding with the Saudi Super Cup scheduled to be held in Abu Dhabi during the period from 8 to 11 April, in which the club will face… Al-Jeddawi is his counterpart, Al-Wahda, and its team is also the most affected by the call-up of its players to the international list among the Super Cup parties.
It is likely that Al-Ittihad will lose prominent players on its roster during the camp and the tournament itself, including Faisal Al-Ghamdi, Ahmed Al-Ghamdi, Saad Al-Mousa, Zakaria Hawsawi, Awad Al-Nashiri, Marwan Al-Sahafi, Farha Al-Shamrani, and Talal Haji.
The federations have put forward internal proposals in order to address the expected team shortage, including that the enrollment of their players be postponed until the end of the Super Cup or that they be allowed to join the team during the Super Cup, provided that they return directly to the Green camp before the start of the Asian Cup scheduled for next April 15 to May 3. in Qatar.
