Consesaú terminates his contract with Al-Ittihad: He’s ready for a European career ahead. The Portuguese coach Sergio Consesaú and the Saudi club Al-Ittihad have reached a preliminary agreement to terminate their contract. The two parties are still in the final stages of discussing the financial and legal details. After that, Consesaú will officially become a free agent. The decision to leave was inevitable. Despite his high status and experience working with top clubs, Consesaú failed to adapt his aggressive playing style to the realities of the Saudi league. Both the club and the coach agreed that terminating the contract would be the best solution for both parties. Now, the 50-year-old coach will focus on returning to Europe. His agent has already started discussions with potential clubs. Given Consesaú’s reputation as a coach who can create disciplined and intense play, there’s a high demand for his services in Europe. It is expected that a formal announcement regarding his departure from Al-Ittihad will be made within the next 48–72 hours. For the Portuguese coach, this is an opportunity to restart his career at a high level. The question is which project will offer the best balance between his sporting ambitions and his resources as a coach.
