German Jens Fiesing, head coach of Al-Ittihad's first football team, will open the file for the match against Spanish side Las Palmas on Saturday, as part of the external training camp currently held in Marbella, according to a special source for Al-Riyadiya. Fiesing had given the players a rest last Wednesday, after defeating South Africa's Orlando Pirates 3-2 in a friendly match. Al-Ittihad will open the new sports season with a match against Emirati side Al Jazira on August 11 in Abu Dhabi, as part of the playoff qualifying for the AFC Champions League Elite.
