Exclusive to Kooora: why was the sacking of Al-Ahli Saudi's coach delayed?

The Dutch head coach is on the brink of departure!

Fury has swept through Al-Ahli's fanbase over the past few hours, sparked by a historic 6-1 thrashing at the hands of Al-Shabab in the 12th round of the Saudi Roshn Pro League.

The supporters turned on their Dutch coach from the stands at full-time, chanting "Bosic out" to make their feelings about his future crystal clear.

A source close to Al-Ahli has told "Kooora" that the clash with Qatar's Al-Sadd in the AFC Champions League Elite represents Bosic's final chance at the club.

Anything other than a win will see him lose his job, the source added. One of the club's own would then take charge temporarily until a foreign manager arrives in the coming period.

Bosic rounded on a journalist after the Al-Shabab defeat, asking him: "Are you going to leave Al-Ahli?" The reply came back: "You should be ashamed of yourself".
