We are waiting for «the Mercato»

Our clubs have declined in the past rounds of the league competition, due to the weakness of foreign and resident players, as the quality of the players was weak and did not constitute an addition to our clubs, and honestly, the start of our league was strong, as the teams showed enthusiasm at the beginning of the league, and with our arrival at the end of the first round, the technical level declined, I believe that most of our clubs are waiting for the winter transfers (mercato) to change, whether at the expense of foreign players or residents, especially since the random choices of foreign players are still repeated due to the administrative missteps of some clubs, which affected the technical level.

- Whoever has a huge budget is able to compete with the big teams and compete for the league championship.

I have mentioned it in more than one article. Whoever wants to compete for a championship until the last breath must sign four super foreign players and good residents. The problem for our clubs is the weakness of foreign players, and the majority is a "prank", but the citizen player has become the best, and the important question is how many players will change in The Mercato?

Because our clubs are waiting impatiently for the winter transfer window, and the title of our clubs will change in the coming period.

Whoever has a huge budget is able to keep up with the big teams and compete for the league championship, and did you know that the budget of the Sharjah, Kalba and Khorfakkan team is greater than the budget of many other teams, such as Al Wasl, Shabab Al Ahly, Ajman and even so, the Sharjah Sports Council allocated huge budgets for the clubs of the emirate of Basma for competition, and who saw a team Al-Bataih in the first division realizes that there is a lot of administrative work, and a great financial potential for this club to advance to the professional league.

The Ajman team is still wasting points, and I think that the problem of Ajman is in its foreign players, as the administration has not succeeded in bringing in good foreigners, and it must correct the situation in the winter transfer period because the situation is dangerous, and if they continue in this way, the team will fall to the first division.

A final word: The Saudi Federation qualified for the final of the Mohammed VI Cup after its victory over Al Shabab, something that pleases its fans and fans, when the federation returns, the fun returns to this great club, and the management under the leadership of Anmar Al-Haeli works in a great and wonderful way, especially after the distinguished deal with the Egyptian international Ahmed Hegazy, coming from the league English.

Al-Ittihad knows well the way to the finals, and is waiting for the Moroccan hope or the Egyptian Ismaili, and it is close to winning this precious title, which is a successful tournament by all standards.
