Saudi coach Yasser Al-Harbi joins Serbian club FK Vozdovac as assistant coach
BELGRADE: Saudi national coach Yasser Al-Harbi has joined the Serbian club FK Vozdovac as an assistant coach for the first team in a move that meets the objectives of the Future Falcons Program. Al-Harbi, who initially joined the program as an assistant coach, signed the contract with the top-tier Serbian club this week. The FFP, which is affiliated with the Saudi Arabian Football Federation, aims to develop national coaches and administrators by offering them opportunities in Europe. Saudi coach Abdulhakeem Al-Tuwaijri signed a contract earlier this month to coach the first team of Bosnia’s Zeljeznicar Club as part of the same program. Al-Harbi, who previously served as assistant coach for AEK Athens’ reserve team, becomes the second Saudi national to coach in Europe this month following Al-Tuwaijri’s appointment. Al-Harbi joins the Serbian SuperLiga club as an assistant coach for a season. The champions of the Serbian SuperLiga are drawn into the primary qualifying rounds for the UEFA Champions League, with the second and third-placed teams participating in the qualifying rounds for the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Stubborn Palestine Hold Lebanon At Bay In World Cup Qualifier
Palestine began their quest for a place at the 2026 World Cup with a goalless draw against Lebanon in their Group I World Cup qualifier in Sharjah on Thursday. The match was played at Khalid Bin Mohammed Stadium in Sharjah because of a one-match stadium ban on 'host' Lebanon following unruly scenes in their qualifier against Syria in Beirut last year. But with Palestine also displaced because of the current conflict with Israel in Gaza -- they play their first 'home' game against Australia in Kuwait next week -- the two sides stood for a minute's silence before the game for the victims of the fighting.
