The date on which Neymar will play the Asian Champions League with Al Hilal
Neymar and Al Hilal
Neymar Jr has finally made his debut for Al Hilal after missing the first games in the Saudi Pro League due to an injury. The Brazilian player was one of the surprise signings of the current season after leaving PSG. However, the Brazilian’s adventure in the Saudi Pro League is just beginning and he already gave his first assist in the team’s last game, where they won 6-1. At the moment, Neymar is in a great position this season and the Asian Champions League is looming for a while.
With Neymar’s debut as the highest expectation, now we will review what is coming to a team that is full of great footballers, in addition to the Brazilian star, such as the Moroccan goalkeeper Bono, the center back Kalidou Koulibaly, the Portuguese midfielder Rubén Neves, the former Lazio Milinkovic-Savic, another Brazilian offensive like Malcom and the Serbian scorer Mitrovic.
It should be remembered that in the first five rounds, Al-Hilal had started with four wins and one draw, adding 13 points, the same as Al-Taawoun. They only left two points along the way when they faced Al-Fayha on the second date. Now, the footballer is also beginning to look at a new challenge and this would be the Asian Champions League. It should be noted that the footballer is in one of the clubs on that continent with the largest squad, as well as an important history, which is why they are contenders for the championship.
When does the Asian Champions League start?
Monday, September 18, will be the start day of the AFC Champions League, the most prestigious tournament organized by the Asian Football Confederation. The champion of said tournament will be the one who represents the region in the Club World Cup, in which the UEFA Champions League champion and the CONMEBOL Libertadores champion also participate. Neymar’s Al Hilal FC will clash against Navbahor on Monday the 18th and on the same day Karim Benzema’s Al Ittihad will do the same against AGMK FC. Cristiano Ronaldo will make his debut on Tuesday the 19th, when Al Nassr faces Persepolis.
