Mario Mitaj is back in Al Ittihad's plans. The winter transfer window moves opened up a spot for the national team defender, who has been a regular starter with full minutes in the last three games.
Al Itihad is going through a difficult moment, as the defending champion is out of the title race. After 21 weeks, it holds seventh place in the Arab football elite.
The fans surprised the players in training today, showing their support for them after Karim Benzema's departure was a delicate moment. Mitaj was also in the spotlight, for whom they sang and from the video shared, it is clear that his smile has returned.
The support in training came a day before the match with Al Gharafa in the Asian Champions League. This match is scheduled for tomorrow at 19:15 and Mitaj is expected to be the starter by coach Conceição.
