After the poor results and the controversies that arose around the team and the Al-Ittihad star, Karim Benzema, the management of the Arab team has decided to thank him and relieve the Portuguese coach Nuno Espirito Santo of his position. The Portuguese, who until a couple of seasons ago led Wolverhampton in the Premier League, arrived in Saudi Arabia in the 2022-2023 campaign, where he led a total of 30 games, winning 22, drawing six and losing two, enough to be champion of the Arab League.
This campaign, at least in the league, they have not won since last September, when they beat Al-Fateh, since then the team had three draws and two defeats, in the AFC Champions League they are first in their sector, but the defeat of This Monday against Al Quwa Al Jawiya he ended up deciding his fate. The team where Fabinho also plays is in position six after 12 rounds, having won six, drawn three and lost the same number of games.
This Friday, with a new coach, they will face Abha on matchday number 13 of the Saudi Arabian First Division. Given the departure of this Portuguese coach, different names are being used in different media to take charge of this important team and even the Liverpool coach, the German Jürgen Klopp, was mentioned.
Although for now it seems practically impossible for Jürgen to leave the club free to go to Arabia in the short term, this team would not rule out making a million-dollar offer to take the boss of the Reds, but the offer they would have to present should at least exceed 20 million annually since at Liverpool he earns just over 18 million, being one of the highest paid in the world.
