In a tightly contested match on Matchday 27 of the Roshen Professional League, Jeddah United managed to secure a narrow 1–0 victory over Al-Hazm, but this win was overshadowed by yet another setback for the team stemming from Morocco. The match marked the return of Youssef El-Nesyri, who had been sidelined due to a recent injury. However, his performance did not meet expectations, raising concerns for both his fitness and the team’s attacking capabilities.
According to reports from the Saudi newspaper Al-Riyadiah, Youssef El-Nesyri suffered a new injury during the match against Al-Hazm. He is scheduled to undergo a medical examination today, Saturday, which will provide clarity on the severity of the injury and the anticipated recovery time. The potential absence of El-Nesyri presents a significant challenge for Al-Ittihad, as the team is already grappling with inconsistent results and a depleted attacking roster.
Since his arrival at Al-Ittihad during the recent winter transfer window, El-Nesyri has struggled to find his rhythm, contributing four goals and one assist across ten matches in various domestic and international competitions. His inability to showcase his full potential is a growing concern for the club, which is in dire need of offensive reinforcements as they navigate the challenges of the league.
