The Saudi national team coach reveals the reason for his adherence to Al Owais

French coach Herve Renard, the coach of the Saudi national football team, confirmed that his adherence to the main goalkeeper Mohammed Al Owais is due to his impressive levels throughout his participation in the Asian qualifiers for the World Cup, which culminated in Saudi Arabia's top group and its access to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Regarding the failure to call in Al Hilal club goalkeeper Abdullah Al Mayouf, who offers distinguished levels, Renard explained in a media statement: “Al Mayouf played one game out of the 18 matches in the previous Asian qualifiers, and he announced his retirement from international football at his desire three years ago, and currently I have goalkeeper Al Owais who presents excellent levels. ".

Al-Akhdar enters the preparatory camp, which will be held in the Spanish city of Alicante from the 17th to the 27th of this month, as part of the second phase of the preparatory program for the World Cup "Qatar 2022", which begins next November.

During the second stage, Al-Akhdar will play two friendly matches, the first against Ecuador on the 23rd of this month, and the second friendly against the USA team on the 27th of the same month. Both friendly matches will be played at the Nueva Condomina Stadium in Murcia.
