After the game, the Al-Nassr captain was captured chatting with Ngannou, who is set to face Fury in Saudi Arabia this weekend.

The bout between the MMA star and the WBC champion is billed as the 'Battle of the Baddest', according to the Evening Standard.

This will be Ngannou's first ever professional boxing fight, but he will not take Fury's WBC title if he wins the bout on Saturday night as the title is not on the line.

Fury's last fight was in December 2022, against Derek Chisora, and he is looking forward to facing another heavyweight champion in Oleksandr Usyk.
