This is not the first time that Thiam causes “U” rupture. He also acted in the summer of 2023, when the Transylvanians received 500,000 euros from his passing to Al-Arabi, Kuwait.
In the 2025-2026 edition, Al-Muharraq will evolve into the AFC Champions 2 groups, the second inter-club competition, the equivalent of the Europa League.

“Mozul” is waiting for the problem of the missing striker to be solved in a short time, so that the team can focus on the following games.

On Friday, he was not introduced to the team. Thiam I'm talking about. The management will have to solve this problem. I wouldn't want to detail. Probably there will be certain explanations from the management.
