Amer and Marzou depart Kuwait Club handball team

Brazil national team player Bryan Monte

KUWAIT CITY, June 21: Kuwait Club has confirmed the departure of two players from its first handball team at the end of the season, following the expiry of contracts for Qatari professional Frankis Marzou and Kuwaiti player Mohammed Amer.

Marzou was among the most influential foreign players to feature for “Al-Abyad” in recent seasons, playing a key role with his international experience and attacking strength in securing several domestic and external titles. He had joined Kuwait Club’s preparations for the recent Asian Club Handball Championship held in Kuwait after finishing his duty with the Qatar national team at the Gulf Games.

Mohammed Amer, meanwhile, spent five seasons with the team and previously represented several local clubs. He has recently attracted interest from Al-Arabi Club.

Kuwait Club is expected to finalize its renewal and signing decisions in the coming period as it looks to maintain squad stability and continue competing strongly for both domestic and continental honours, following a successful run of titles in recent years.

Fans are now awaiting the official announcement of the retained and departing players, along with new signings expected to strengthen the squad ahead of upcoming competitions.

Reports also suggest that Kuwait Club is considering signing Montpellier and Brazil national team player Bryan Monte, who recently represented “Al-Abyad” in the Asian Club Championship, while retaining Vladen and searching for a third foreign professional.
