The Serbian forward suffered a leg injury ahead of his team’s opening match against Real Madrid and has yet to appear in the tournament.

The Saudi club made history by reaching the quarter-finals after defeating English giants Manchester City 4-3 in the round of 16.

At this stage, Al-Hilal will face Brazilian side Fluminense, who eliminated European Champions League finalists Inter Milan.

Former Fulham striker Mitrović, who joined Al-Hilal in summer 2023, scored 28 goals in 36 appearances across all competitions last season.

Al-Hilal is also without talented winger Salem Al-Dawsari, ruled out for the rest of the tournament due to a muscle tear sustained during their group-stage match against RB Salzburg.
