Roshn Saudi League side Al Orobah announced the appointment of Spanish coach Antonio Cazorla as new head coach until the end of the 2024-25 season.
The 59-year-old returns for a second spell as an interim coach in the RSL, having previously took charge of Al Ettifaq for the last 12 games of the 2022-23 season, leading them to five wins, three draws and four defeats as they ended that campaign in seventh place.
Al Orobah, who returned to the top division this season after a decade, currently sit 16th in the RSL table, one point adrift of safety, with Cazorla’s tenure starting with tricky trip to the capital to face Al Riyadh on Thursday.
