Al Hilal v Al Ittihad: Saudi Pro League

In a surprise boardroom decision that sent shockwaves through the club, manager Sérgio Conceição has been abruptly sacked, triggering widespread anger among fans and players alike

The Portuguese manager is currently navigating one of the most challenging periods of his distinguished career at the Saudi club. Having steered the side to domestic success in recent seasons, he now faces mounting pressure from fans, officials and the media. Results have slipped, squad morale appears fragile, and the familiar aura of invincibility has faded. Behind the scenes, the coaching staff are working to identify the root causes, from tactical mismatches to cultural adjustments, while the board monitors progress with growing concern.
