Al-Ahli administration is looking for a foreign professional in the defensive midfield position, as a replacement for Frenchman Enzo Mio, a first-team football player, according to a source close to Al-Riyadiya. The same source stated that the Jeddawi club has not received any offers for the French player. Portuguese Rui Pedro, the sports director at Al-Ahli, is leaning towards selling the player's contract or loaning him out during the summer transfer window, after signing Portuguese Francisco Trincão and the Armenian Armenian Eduardo Spertsyan. It is worth noting that Mio joined Al-Ahli during the last summer transfer window, coming from German club Stuttgart, and played 40 matches for the team in various competitions, scoring nine goals and providing seven assists, according to Transfermarkt. Al-Ahli ended last season by winning the AFC Champions League Elite title for the second consecutive time, obtaining the Saudi Super Cup, finishing third in the Roshn League, and exiting the semi-finals of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup against Al-Hilal.
