Al Ittihad coach Cosmin Contra assured Salama Abdulaziz Al Bishi, Madalla Al Olayan and Portugal’s Ander Filipe of their return to the team’s group training.
The federal team will continue to face Al-Ittifaq on Thursday in Dammam as part of the 29th round of the Prince Mohammed bin Salman Pro Cup.
Al-Bishi was injured and was substituted in the first half by Al-Ahly’s friendly last Friday at the reserve King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, and medical examinations confirmed that Al-Bishi had a joint injury.
The duo of Filibi and Al-Olayan missed the friendly against Al-Ahly due to undergoing a treatment program for recent injuries.
