Former Manchester United star Laurent Blanc asked to leave after Al-Ittihad's defeat in Saudi Pro League
Laurent Blanc was sacked as Al-Ittihad coach, just a year after leading them to a historic double. His dismissal followed a 2-0 loss to Al-Nassr, capping a poor start to the season despite his surprise at the decision. The club, under pressure with star players, is now reportedly considering Xavi Hernandez as his replacement.
