Saudi Al-Nasr Football Club is concerned about the tense situation in the region.
Saudi football club Al-Nasr has expressed concerns about hosting an AFC Champions League match in Iran.
According to Marca, the team, which includes star Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo, refused to go to the meeting with Iranian Esteghlal.
The reason for this position is the situation in the region. According to the source, due to Israeli threats, Tehran could become one of the most dangerous cities in the world and the club does not want to risk the safety of its star players.
It should be noted that the match between Al-Nassr and Esteghlal should take place after the break for the national teams on October 22.
After two rounds, Al-Nasr is in fourth place in the standings with four points. Esteghlal is in fifth place with three points.
Earlier, Israel said it could attack any point in the Middle East region in response to Tehran’s missile attack.
However, the US President expressed confidence that there will not be an all-out war in the Middle East.
