The Professionalism Committee Resolves the Controversy and Rejects Al Hilal's Complaint Against Al Hamdan
The Saudi Arabian Football Federation, through the Professionalism and Players' Status Committee, issued its final decision regarding the complaint filed by Al-Hilal against its former player Abdullah Al-Hamdan, the Al-Nassr striker.
Al-Hilal had filed a complaint accusing Al-Hamdan of circumventing transfer and registration rules, demanding the imposition of penalties stipulated in the professional regulations.
The committee clarified in its statement that it accepted the complaint in form but rejected it in substance after reviewing all the details related to the case.
The committee also decided to reject the demand for the application of penalties mentioned in Article (62) in form, as the complaint was submitted before the competent authority ruled on the legitimacy of the contract termination.
The committee confirmed that the decision can be appealed before the Saudi Sports Arbitration Center, which opens the door for Al Hilal to take new legal steps if it wishes to do so.
