French coach Hervé Renard, manager of the Saudi Arabia national team, confirmed that what Al-Akhdar has achieved is primarily due to the support the players and technical staff receive from His Highness the Crown Prince.
Renard wrote via his personal Twitter account after receiving His Highness the Crown Prince Al Akhdara yesterday: “I am honored to meet His Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
Thanks to his support, we are at the highest level of football, competing with the best teams in the world.”
