Hey Koura: A beautiful Saudi market, a strong and historic summer, and it is normal for there to be some lapses in any club, and this matter can be understood in the media or by officials in the clubs… because there are precise internal administrative details whose details no one knows, which makes the club administrations take some decisions that… The public sees it as unnatural and is the subject of constant criticism… The problem that the administrations of these clubs fall into is that they do not announce all the details in order to make the sports street an eyewitness to the reality itself… Therefore, these positions are often the subject of ongoing controversy for many years.
On this day, we monitor two incidents that were the subject of great controversy during the past weeks among the public… Here we do not accuse, criticize, or even write imaginary numbers. All that is written is either criticism of the public’s face for those clubs and departments, or numbers published and written in the various media, that is, those Some of the numbers were not officially announced by the club administration, so the dealings were on this basis and the club administrations are supposed to deny those numbers immediately after they are published if they are wrong.
The two sides of the controversy this summer were as follows:
1- Al-Ittihad signed with Faisal Al-Ghamdi, coming from the agreement, at a value of 47 million riyals, as was published in the Middle East, noting that Al-Ghamdi has only a few months left in his contract, or as the newspaper published, that Al-Ghamdi will soon enter the free period. Therefore, the player’s value is supposed to be much less than this number… but This deal and this signing sparked the situation in another party, which is what Al-Shabab Club President Khaled Al-Thunayan did when he agreed to sell Hassan Timbukti to Al-Hilal for a value less than what Al-Nasr and Al-Ahly offered… And to be fair and clear, no official number was announced by any party… which is circulating and widespread among the media. The Saudis say the transfer value is 20 million, while others say 46 million, but they remain unofficial numbers… Therefore, everyone is astonished by Al-Thunayan’s agreement to the offer, which is much lower than what Al-Nasr and Al-Ahly presented.
A summary of the above: How is a player with a few months left on his contract sold for a value of 47 million to Al-Ittihad, and how is the most important player in the Saudi League and the most important defender sold for a value less than this number and with years remaining on his contract?
2- The situation in the federation is also embarrassing after the federation’s administration dispensed with the player Jota, who came with a value of 30 million euros, as previously published by Mr. Fabrizio Romano, the value of the deal… a young player whose contract extends to 2026 comes with that value and is not used or even given to any other club at all. The loan deal so far is considered a very big failure and a bigger problem. The coach must be held accountable if he is responsible for that deal.
This is the controversy that happened this summer…and this is what some clubs made in terms of lapses and mistakes. The reason for its continuation and the depth of the dispute in it is the lack of sufficient transparency and official announcements from the clubs to remove all doubt with certainty.
