Al-Nassr regain Al-Aqidi and Al-Omari ahead of Al-Driyah King’s Cup tie
Al-Nassr welcome back Nawaf Al-Aqidi and Abdulelah Al-Omari from injury before their King’s Cup match against Al-Driyah.
Key Takeaways
AIAl-Nassr’s first team has regained the services of goalkeeper Nawaf Al-Aqidi and defender Abdulelah Al-Omari, who returned to full training on Sunday after recovering from injury.
Al-Aqidi missed Saturday’s match against Al-Fateh—which Al-Nassr won 3-0 in their Saudi Pro League title defense opener—due to a shoulder bruise. Al-Omari was also absent from the same match because of an ankle injury.
The coaching staff divided the players during Sunday’s session at the Dar Al-Nassr training center into two groups: those who started against Al-Fateh underwent recovery exercises, while the rest focused on physical and tactical drills.
Final preparations before Al-Driyah encounter
Al-Nassr will hold their final training session on Monday, during which the coaching staff will determine the lineup for Tuesday’s match against Al-Driyah at Al-Awwal Park in the Round of 32 of the King’s Cup.
