Al-Kholood’s current season has been tough, with the club struggling in the lower half of the standings. They are looking for a winning streak to change their fortunes.
Goals have been hard to come by, typically appearing in quick bursts instead of a steady stream, increasing the pressure as other teams near the bottom gain points.
This urgency is heightened by last season’s achievements. Al-Kholood finished ninth in their first season in the Saudi Pro League, raising expectations from mere survival to building a better team.
Due to this year’s struggles, new signings are a hot topic, with targets aimed at bringing energy, speed, and depth to the squad.
A recent addition to watch is Adam Berry, who has been signed from Nottingham Forest. Al-Kholood made the announcement on X.
This transfer marks a new opportunity for the young player as the former Manchester United winger begins his career abroad.
Berry came through United’s academy, having joined their youth program and primarily playing as a wide forward.
He was utilized in various positions up front, but it is believed his strongest performances come from the wing where he can make early contributions to attacks.
Despite not making any senior competitive appearances with United, he always faced a challenging path in a competitive environment.
After leaving United, Berry moved to Nottingham Forest’s youth setup, aiming to regain his rhythm and minutes on the pitch.
His recent move to Saudi football is seen as a quick step to senior play and a clearer role.
For Al-Kholood, this signing is a low-risk yet potentially high-reward choice, as Berry aims to secure a place in his first senior squad.
