Al-Nassr’s star forward, Anderson Talisca, will miss the remainder of the season due to a thigh injury. The Brazilian’s absence is a blow for the team, given his impressive tally of 25 goals in 25 games this season.
Talisca’s injury not only sidelines him but also removes a critical piece of Al-Nassr’s offensive strategy, particularly felt during their 1-0 defeat to Al-Ain in the Asian Champions League quarter-final.
