A British fan known as Woolfy, who has been living in Abu Dhabi for 12 years, confirmed that he is one of the most prominent followers of Al Wahda club. He stated that he loves the team, follows all its matches inside and outside the capital, and considers himself part of the 'Al-Anabi' fan base that never stops supporting the team in all circumstances. Woolfy told 'Al Ittihad' that he chose to support Al Wahda from the very first moment he passed by the club's stadium, where he was attracted by its colors, which strongly resemble the colors of his favorite club in England, Aston Villa. He added that this simple moment was the beginning of a long love story with the historic Emirati team. Woolfi explained that his following of the ADNOC Pro League has spanned many years, and he sees that the current season is one of the most exciting and competitive in recent years. He praised the high level presented by Al Ain this season and noted that despite some difficulties, Al Ahli's young players will remain one of the strongest competitors, thanks to their experience and technical value. He added that Al Wasl club, with its large fan base and special atmosphere at Zabeel Stadium, remains a tough number in the tournament, confirming that the competition for the title will be intense until the final weeks, and the title could return to Abu Dhabi via Al Wahda. The British fan stated that the UAE league is developing remarkably year after year, in terms of organization, crowd attendance, or player quality. He stressed that 'the time is now perfect for fans to support their local clubs' and called on everyone to go to the stadiums and support their teams, as this plays an important role in boosting enthusiasm and sportsmanship. Woolfi mentioned that he manages accounts on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, where he posts diverse content about UAE football and the lives of fans, aiming to convey a positive image of sports in the country. He confirmed that he is proud of his affiliation with Al Wahda and the performance the team is delivering this season, praising goalkeeper Mohammed Al Shamsi whom he described as 'a legend and a great symbol,' as well as commending players Ismail Matar and Sebastian Tagliapietra, considering them among the best players to have passed through the club's history. Woolfi concluded his statements by confirming that his passion for UAE football is no less than that of any local fan, and that he will continue to support the team in all upcoming matches, hoping that this season will mark the beginning of a return of trophies to Al Wahda's coffers.
