The management of the Arab squad has chosen to congratulate the Portuguese coach Nuno Espirito Santo and remove him from his job due to the team’s poor performance and the controversy surrounding it and its star player, Karim Benzema. Following his arrival in Saudi Arabia in the 2022–2023 season, the Portuguese player—who had led Wolverhampton in the Premier League till a few seasons ago—led a total of 30 games, winning 22, drawing six, and losing two—enough to win the Arab League.
They are leading their group in the AFC Champions League, but this Monday’s loss to Al Quwa Al Jawiya ultimately determined his fate. The team has not won this season, at least not in the league, since they defeated Al-Fateh in September of last year. Since then, they have had three draws and two losses. With six wins, three draws, and the same amount of losses, the team that also features Fabinho is ranked sixth after twelve rounds.
On matchday thirteen of the Saudi Arabian First Division this Friday, they will take on Abha under the new coach. Different names are being utilised in the media to take over this key squad in light of the departure of this Portuguese coach; Jürgen Klopp, the German coach of Liverpool, was also discussed.
What they may possibly offer
Even though it currently appears unlikely that Jürgen will be able to leave the team and move to Arabia in the near future, this team would not be opposed to making a million-dollar offer to acquire the Reds manager. However, given that he is among the highest paid players in the world at Liverpool, where he makes just over 18 million annually, their offer would need to be greater than $20 million annually.
