Achieving Excellence: Feras Al Buraikan Shining Bright in Al Ahli Squad

Jeddah – Al Ahli striker Feras Al Buraikan has been making waves in the Saudi Arabian football scene, standing out among a star-studded team that includes the likes of Riyad Mahrez and Roberto Firmino. Since his move from Al Fateh earlier this season, Al Buraikan has notched 12 goals in the Roshn Saudi League, with eight of them coming after his transfer to Jeddah in September. This impressive tally sees him once again leading the Saudi Arabian scorers in the RSL, building on his 17 goals from the previous campaign.

Al Ahli manager Matthias Jaissle wasted no time in seizing the opportunity to sign the 23-year-old forward, recognizing his talent that was on display when Al Fateh triumphed 5-1 over Al Ahli, with Al Buraikan contributing a goal and an assist. His total of 13 goal involvements, combining goals and assists, places him fifth overall in the RSL, showcasing his impact on the pitch.

Having also made a mark on the international stage by helping Saudi Arabia clinch the 2023 AFC U23 Asian Cup title and earning regular call-ups to the senior national team, Al Buraikan’s success domestically has been equally noteworthy. His recent goal against Al Taawoun secured a crucial 1-0 victory for Al Ahli, narrowing the gap to second-placed Al Nassr to just six points.

Looking ahead, Al Buraikan is gearing up for a highly anticipated clash against Al Nassr, his former club, where he kick-started his professional career before moving to Al Fateh. With his consistent performances and growth as a player, Al Buraikan’s journey in the RSL has been marked by resilience and determination, as he continues to shine alongside renowned football figures.

As Al Ahli maintains a strong position in third place in the RSL standings, Al Buraikan remains focused on honing his skills with the guidance of more experienced teammates. The upcoming match against Al Nassr promises to be a thrilling encounter, with both teams aiming for a decisive result in their rivalry. Al Buraikan’s journey of perseverance and success in the league serves as a testament to his rising star status in Saudi Arabian football.
