A Saudi fan of Al-Nasr Club asked Senegalese Sadio Mane about the Egyptian star Mohamed Salah before the Moroccan Raja match currently being held at Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium within the quarter-finals of the Arab Club Championship “King Salman Cup” currently held until August 12.
A fan of Saudi Arabia’s Al Nasr told the Senegalese star as he entered the stadium: “Sadio Mane, where is Mohamed Salah?” Mane laughed: “There at Liverpool.”
Saudi clubs compete to sign Mo Salah
The name of Mohamed Salah is linked to a move to the Saudi league in the next summer transfer period after the end of the expected season for the pharaoh with the English club Liverpool.
Al Nasr qualified for the quarter-finals after coming in second place in Group C, after drawing with Al Shabab, then beating Ittihad Monastir and then drawing with Zamalek in the last match.
While Raja topped Group D with a full mark by beating Chabab Belouizdad, then Kuwait and finally Al Wahda.
Al-Nasr seeks to win and overcome Raja to continue its journey towards the Arab Championship title, armed with the ground workers, the public and the star battalion, led by the trio Ronaldo, Sadio Mane and Talisca.
Raja aspires to overcome their rivals, who will have great public support, through a formation focused on team play such as Anas Zniti, Zakaria El Ouardi, Naoufel Zerhouni, Bouchaib Laaraissi, Yousry Bouzouk, and Guinean Ahmadou Camara.
The two teams met in the first edition of the Club World Cup in 2000, which ended in a 4-3 victory for Al Nasr.
