It seems that the atmosphere in the Saudi national team camp is never “calm.” On the sidelines of the Asian Nations Cup, hosted by Doha, Qatar, from January 12 to February 10, 2024.
The Saudi camp witnessed a major crisis during the past few days. After Italian coach Roberto Mancini excluded 6 players from the roster participating in the Asian Cup; They are “Salman Al-Faraj, Nawaf Al-Aqidi, Sultan Al-Ghannam, Khaled Al-Ghannam, Muhammad Maran, Ali Hazazi”; For disciplinary reasons.
The six players who were excluded from the Saudi Green list left on their own or through their agents. To discredit Mancini’s justifications, with the local Football Association opening an investigation into these events.

This crisis did not end until the Saudi street was surprised by a new exclusion from the national team roster. The Italian coach dispensed with Fahd Al-Mawlid, Al-Shabab club’s winger, and included Al-Ahly’s full-back, Rayan Hamed, permanently.
In this context, Fahd Al-Shehri, correspondent for the “In the Goal” program, doubted the story of the Saudi national team and its coach, that Al-Mawlid’s exclusion was due to his injury. Saying: “The player was training normally, and we did not notice any injury to him, before he was excluded from the list.”
Al-Shehri pointed out that the Saudi national team also did not clarify the type of Al-Mawlid’s injury, and the videos that appeared from inside the camp prove that he was in a very normal condition, along with the rest of his teammates. Perhaps hinting at a new crisis, similar to the issue of the hexagram excluded from the list.
