This heavy defeat has put a lot of pressure on the management of Al-Ittihad Jeddah, which has been trying in various ways recently to secure the services of the Egyptian Pharaoh, Mohamed Salah, from Liverpool. However, the English club has refused to let go of the Egyptian star during this season.

The Al-Ittihad fans heavily criticized the team’s management on the social media platform X after the defeat against Al-Hilal, demanding a renewed attempt to acquire the services of the Egyptian international, Mohamed Salah.
Many Al-Ittihad Jeddah supporters believe that the team is still struggling in the attacking position, despite having players like Karim Benzema, Coronado, Bafétimbi Gomis, and Romarinho.
The famous British newspaper, the Daily Star, praised the performance of Serbian star Mitrović during the Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad match. The player managed to score a hat-trick in that game, contributing to Al-Hilal’s victory with four goals to three.
