Squad16 Nov 2026

Words exchanged at Al-Ettifaq

Georginio Wijnaldum and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Madallah Al-Olayan gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Madallah Al-Olayan is on it.

Market16 Nov 2026

No place for Abdullah Al-Dossary in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Abdullah Al-Dossary has his answer from Al-Ettifaq; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

A Al-Ettifaq teenager takes the young player award

Rayane Messi is 19, and for one weekend he was the best of everybody his age in the division. Nobody should build a career on it and everybody quietly does.

Market16 Nov 2026

The Georginio Wijnaldum question follows Al-Ettifaq around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Georginio Wijnaldum’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Joy Manana asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Loan watch16 Nov 2026

Al-Mojzel cannot leave Abdulbasit Hawsawi out

11 starts and an average of 6.61. He went there to play and he is playing, which is the only thing a loan was ever for.

Loan watch16 Nov 2026

Al-Jeel cannot leave Belal Al-Dawaa out

11 starts and an average of 6.55. He went there to play and he is playing, which is the only thing a loan was ever for.

Loan watch16 Nov 2026

Awad Dahal has made Al-Nahda’s shirt his own

9 starts now, an average of 6.53, and the team sheet at Al-Nahda has stopped being a question. Exactly what everybody signed up for.

Market24 Aug 2026

Al-Ettifaq say no — this time

The offer from Al-Qadisiyah for Mohau Nkota was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Age has not caught Georginio Wijnaldum yet — 7.90

At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.90 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Market24 Aug 2026

Abdullah Al-Dossary puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Al-Ettifaq, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market24 Aug 2026

Business is business: Ziyad Al-Ghamdi goes

Hajer paid $16.0K and Al-Ettifaq took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Al-Ettifaq

Abdulbasit Hindi was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market24 Aug 2026

Panathinaikos expected to open talks for Álvaro Medrán

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Al-Ettifaq will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Match22 Aug 2026

Al-Ettifaq find a way past Al-Saudi Al-Watani

Al-Saudi Al-Watani made Al-Ettifaq work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Khalid Al-Ghannam was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.17. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Faisal Al-Otaibi, on a 2‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.
