Players to Watch
Toze (Al Hazem)
He is a player who is good at passing the balls, especially through balls and also by using his long passes poses a threat to the opposition, even though he is short in height he is good at ariel duels as well as ground duels. He is a creative player who quite often drifts to wide and delivers crosses into the box. He is a player who likes to roam around and many times finds pockets of space which help him to attack.
N’Golo Kante (Al Ittihad)
He is a dynamic, diminutive and disciplined player, very well known for his relentless energy and excellent ball-winning abilities as a box-to-box midfielder in the centre of the pitch. This is attributed to his strong positional sense, off-the-ball movement, and ability to read the game. His ability to tackle, regain possession, and intercept passes also makes him special.
