Ahli manager Hossam Al-Badri insists the team are preparing for the Champions League trip to Bizertin despite the Tunisian club's announcement of suspending football activity. In protest over a domestic ruling by the Tunisian FA, Bizertin have announced freezing all sporting activities, including next week's home tie against Ahli in the round of 16. “I am not interested in what's being said about Bizertin fans riots or the club's announcement to suspend football," Al-Badri, who will move to Canada for two weeks after the game, told Ahli's website. “Focusing on such non-football matters would surely distract the players ahead of such an important match. “Ahli do not intend to make any request regarding the venue of the game even with security concerns." Tunisian police has reportedly arrested 25 Bizertin fans following clashes on Monday night.
