Al-Shabab Sparks Controversy and Rejects Championship Documentation Project
The project to document the history of Saudi football is nearing its end, with 123 years of championships and football achievements in the Kingdom documented.
The project team sent the terminology document to the clubs after reviewing it with FIFA experts and extensive discussions with club officials.
Al-Shabab Club rejected the endorsement of the document, expressing concerns about the reclassification of some historical championships.
The management of Al-Shabab believes that some proposals may pave the way for changing championships that were decided by points and converting them into league titles.
A meeting is expected to be held in the coming days between a representative of Al-Shabab and the project team to review the final report before its approval.
