Sports journalist Abdulaziz Al Muraisal has raised controversy over the Saudi federation’s decision to suspend Brazilian star Marcelo Grohe, the team’s goalkeeper.
As reported by the “Shot” program on the Saudi channel “SSC”, Portuguese coach Nuno Santo decided to refuse the services of Grohe and not register him in the team.

This is because the registration is linked to a certain number of foreign players, as Santo wants to register Luis Felipe, who hails from Real Betis, as a replacement for Egyptian Ahmed Hegazi, who suffered a torn cruciate ligament.
Interesting comment from Al-Mursal regarding the Saudi Federation abandoning Grohe
Al-Mursal commented on this through his official account on the X platform, saying: “I can’t believe that Dean “He will give up Grohe. If this happens, it will be the biggest shock in the Saudi Roshen League for everyone involved in the sport, not just Al Ittihad fans.”

He added: “I don’t think that will happen. It’s a decision that is impossible to imagine, much less implement. I have full confidence in the technical decisions of the coach, especially if his numbers support it, but there are decisions (that are not implemented).” .
He concluded: “Releasing Grohe is a form of madness. (((AP Training) if you ask him to release a player he will select Abdul Razzaq Hamdallah without any discussion about Benzema’s presence))) and Letting Grohe go should be the last decision he makes thinks.”
