Big Bonus, Bigger Derby: Al Nassr Aims to Outshine Al Hilal
10 January 2026
Derby stakes and reward
Al Nassr issues a motivational nudge to its players just days before the local derby with Al Hilal at the Kingdom Arena.
Al Nassr will travel to face Al Hilal on Monday in the 15th round of the Saudi Pro League.
According to the newspaper Al-Yawm, Ghazi Al-Dhabi, a Platinum member of Al Nassr, sent a message to the squad to energize them for the showdown.
In the buildup, Al-Dhabi told the players, pull yourselves together; if you beat Al Hilal, the prize belongs to all of you.
Nassr are hoping to rebound after a rough spell, with a 2-2 draw against Al Ettifaq, a 2-3 defeat to Al Ahli Jeddah, and a 1-2 loss to Al Qadsiah.
Al Hilal top the standings with 35 points, four points clear of Nassr.
Notably, Nassr have welcomed back French forward Mohamed Siamkan after an injury lay-off.
The derby promises fireworks as two giants clash, offering momentum beyond three points to the season's race for glory.
Punchline 1: I aim for the punchline like a sniper—dead center, but with jokes sharper than a well-placed free kick.
Punchline 2: If this derby needs a last-minute goal, my humor will be the offside trap—timely, cheeky, and occasionally questionable but always entertaining.
