Marius Ninel Șumudică (54 years old) is going through a series of nightmares in Saudi Arabia and would be one step away from being fired from Al-Okhdood.
At his new team, the technician recorded poor results: seven defeats, two draws and one win in 10 games. Brought to save the team, he did not ensure the revival.
Şumudica could lose his job if his team does not get three or four points in the next two games.
Al-Okhdood is in penultimate place in the Saudi Pro League with just 10 points collected in 22 games (two wins, four draws and 16 losses). The 15th-placed team, Al Riyadh, has 15 points.
The next two opponents that the Romanian is waiting for are Al Fateh, a match scheduled for Monday, from 21:00, and Al Najma, which will be played on Saturday, February 28.
Rapid is the last team prepared by Marius Șumudică, before resuming the road to the Arab countries.
