Urgent request from Al-Hilal management to referees committee before Al Riyadh match in Saudi Pro League

Al-Hilal have requested the referees committee to provide a foreign officiating crew for their upcoming match against Al Riyadh, as part of the Saudi Pro League. This is a new move ahead of the anticipated clash.

Al-Hilal's management has prepared an alternative option in case foreign referees cannot arrive in the coming hours, which involves using an Arab officiating crew, with the club covering the costs of this request.

Al-Hilal are looking to resolve the refereeing issue early ahead of their upcoming match at the Kingdom Arena, as part of the next round of the Saudi Pro League.

Al-Hilal requested foreign referees for their previous match against Al Ittihad, but the match was ultimately assigned to international referee Khalid Al-Tarish.

Al-Hilal secured a victory over Al Ittihad with three goals to two in the match held at the Kingdom Arena. They are now preparing to face Al Riyadh amid anticipation for the referees' committee decision regarding the officiating crew assigned to the match.
