Al-Ahli, a distinguished club with its roots from 1937, earns the privilege of hosting their matches at the King Abdullah Sports City, tucked in the expanses of Saudi Arabia.

Though the faces clad in green and white may come and go, they currently hold an impressive stable worth around £144m, a figure confirmed with a simple trawl through Transfermarkt. A testament to their recruiting acumen, indeed.

Not content to rest on their laurels, Al-Ahli have thrust themselves into the throes of competition this season. As of now, they are making waves on two fronts, with a notable 7th place standing in the Pro League and participation in the AFC Champions League Elite (West Region), a stage not bereft of its challenges.
