**Injury Update: Sergej Milinković-Savić at Al Hilal**

Al Hilal, the prominent Saudi Arabian club known for its fierce defense and tactical prowess, has announced some notable injuries affecting their squad. Among the key players to be sidelined is Sergej Milinković-Savić, a versatile forward who has been integral to the team's defensive strategy.

Sergej Milinković-Savić, born in 1994, was signed by Al Hilal from FK Krasnodar in Russia in January this year. The Serbian international has quickly established himself as one of the club’s most reliable defenders, combining physical strength with excellent technical skills. His role often involves providing cover for his teammates while also contributing offensively through set pieces or counter-attacks.

The injury news comes just before the start of the upcoming season, which begins shortly after the winter break. Given that the transfer window had already closed on December 28th, there is no immediate plan to bring in a replacement. However, the club will need to carefully monitor the player's condition over the coming weeks to ensure he recovers fully.

For now, Al Hilal's defensive lineup will rely more heavily on other experienced players like Ali Salih and Hamed Al Shabab, who have shown consistent form throughout the pre-season preparations. These veterans will be crucial in maintaining the team's high standards under the guidance of head coach Fawaz Al Naimi.

As the club prepares for the new campaign, it is important to note that the absence of such a vital player could potentially impact both the team's morale and performance during the early stages of the season. Fans and supporters of Al Hilal will closely follow developments regarding Sergej Milinković-Savić’s recovery to gauge how this decision might affect the team's chances of success in the upcoming league and domestic cup competitions.
