Sérgio Conceição was confirmed this Wednesday as the coach of Al Ittihad, the current champion of Saudi Arabia. The Portuguese coach returns to work after parting ways with AC Milan at the end of last season.

“I am Sérgio Conceição and I have come to build glory at Al Ittihad,” were the first words of the Portuguese coach for his new club.

At the Saudi club, Conceição will be reunited with Danilo, a player he coached at FC Porto, and the young Roger Fernandes, recently signed from SC Braga.

The coach is expected to make his debut on the bench against Al Fayha, on October 17.
