Al Ittihad is rushing in time to complete all of the team’s summer deals before the start of the open air camp scheduled for July 23 in Austria. And the Feds completed the first deal of the season by signing Uhud left-back Zakaria Havsavi. Al Ittihad officials are currently working on putting the finishing touches on a deal for Al Fayha left-back Ahmed Bamasoud.
Bamasud is considered a federal target during this summer’s Mercato after his remarkable brilliance with Al Faihaa last season. Meanwhile, Western press reports have linked Senegalese internationalist Chekho Kouyate to Al Ittihad, especially since the player’s contract with Crystal Palace in England expired last June.
At that time, Nuno Santo, the new coach of the Federation team, in agreement with the administration, takes over the work of foreign professionals. Santo focuses on selecting players who are able to implement his technical method and quickly interact with it, especially after the team returns to their usual place, competing for championships.
