He was heavily criticized for his transfer to Saudi Arabia, but Mario Mitaj is becoming a star for the Al Ittihad team.
The red and black winger was once again the protagonist, this time in the direct challenge against C. Ronaldo's Al-Nassr.
Mitaj devised a last-gasp attacking move, his assist giving Al Ittihad a 2-1 victory over CR7.
Despite having moved to distant Asia, Mitaj's name continues to circulate strongly in Europe, this time in England.
Not long ago, Mitaj's name was present in Serie A, but his excellent performances have also aroused interest in the Premier League, where according to foreign media, the red and black defender is being followed by big teams like Tottenham and Newcastle.
We remind you that Mitaj is under contract with the Lokomotiv Moscow team, but is on loan to Al Ittihad until the end of this season.
It remains to be seen what Mitaj will decide at the end of this season as the possibility that Al Ittihad will finally buy the Albanian defender's card is not ruled out.
