After the great beginnings of Alexandre Lacazette in Saudi Arabia two weeks ago, Zack Nani will not have the opportunity to comment on his idol Karim Benzema. The Streamer Youtube channel, which offers three matches from the Saudi Arabian championship per week, resumes its rights on Friday with the meeting of Al-Ittihad, the reigning champion led by Laurent Blanc, against Al-Fateh (8 p.m. in France).
The “Ballon d'Or du Peuple” struck hard on the first day of Saudi Pro League by scoring a triple during a 5-2 victory against Al-Ol-Oval, but “KB9” joined the infirmary. Al-Ittihad announced on Tuesday an injury to the training of his featured captain, without giving the nature of the physical problem, and we no longer know about his unavailability.
Benzema, 37, will miss the Friday meeting against Al-Fateh and then the first Asian Champions League match against Al-Wahda, training in the United Arab Emirates next Monday. N'Golo Kanté, Houssem Aouar and Moussa Diaby will do without him. The former Real Madrid striker, who remains over a season at 25 goals in all competitions, will perhaps resume against Al-Najma in the league, in 10 days.
No Benzema or Lacazette
Zack Nani will not have the pleasure of commenting on the Neom of Alexandre Lacazette this weekend, but offers two other beautiful posters: the shock between Al-Hilal, the team of Kalidou Koulibaly and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and now Darwin Nunez, against the al-Qadsiah of Mateo Retaui, Saturday 8 p.m. Al-Kholood. Cristiano Ronaldo will try to improve his stats against a promoted whose star player is called Myziane Maolida.
The Neom SC by Christophe Galtier, with Nathan Zézé, Abdoulaye Doucouré, Saimon Bouabré and Saïd Benrahma – in addition to “Laca” – will try to win his first match in the elite against Damac. Marcin Bulka is unfortunately the victim of a break in a crossed ligament and could miss the rest of the season.
