Al-Nassr brings six U21s into first-team training.

Al-Nassr returned to training Friday after a nine-day break, preparing for its postponed match away to Al-Ahli in Jeddah. Kooora, citing Saudi newspaper Al-Riyadiya, reports that coach Ange Postecoglou brought six Under-21 players into first-team training. Three outfielders are covering for senior players away with their national teams; the other three are goalkeepers, brought in because all of Al-Nassr’s senior goalkeepers are unavailable. The report says three are injured, while Bento is with Brazil’s national team. Half the extra group, then, is there to cover the goalkeeping gap.
