Saudi Football Federation’s Stance on Clubs Exceeding Foreign Player Limit in Rosters

Private sources revealed to Al-Riyadiya that the Professionalism and Player Status Committee in the Saudi Football Federation did not force the Saudi Roshan League clubs to drop the names of foreign players in excess of the maximum limit of their rosters.
The same sources indicated that clubs participating in the AFC Champions League or Club World Cup can benefit from the services of all their players, as the Asian and International Federations require that the player be registered in the lists of the local federation through the TMS system.
Clubs that own players above the maximum limit will have to agree with the player, either by taking advantage of him in the available competitions or reaching a settlement and ending their association with him, because they will enter into a legal crisis due to the player not participating in 10 percent of the total number of official matches, and thus he has the right to cancel. His contract is due to a legitimate athlete.
Dr. Ayman Al-Rifai, the legal advisor and head of the Disciplinary and Ethics Committee in the former Football Association, says: “After closing the registration periods, 8 non-Saudi players will be identified, and they will be allowed to play in the Saudi League in accordance with the established rules and regulations. Those who are not selected will be unable to play, and this will allow… They may terminate the contract for legitimate sporting reasons, most notably Article 41, which says that if a player participates in less than 10 percent of the total number of official matches with his club, he has the right to terminate his contract and demand payment of the full remaining contract value.” He added: “The player will not be able to play until he registers in the next transfer period, because he is not considered a free player in order to register outside the registration periods for the clubs to which these cases apply, as his contract did not expire naturally, but rather was terminated, or terminated, by the club.” The Professionalism Committee had circulated to the clubs in its letter sent on August 9 that the list would be opened to foreign players during registration periods without a maximum limit in the Football Association’s systems only, provided that the list of participating clubs would be approved in accordance with the limit set through the electronic system of the Professional League “splis.” “During the period specified by the latter, which in turn sent a letter signed by Saad Al-Lathez, the designated CEO, informing the clubs that the period ends on the 15th of this September, that is, today, and then Carlo Nohra, the Association’s Chief Operating Officer, added another letter dated the 7th of the month. This September to remind clubs of the date. The committee explained in its circular through the third clause that the clubs participating in the Saudi Roshan League must work to find regular solutions for players in excess of the permitted number, with the club alone bearing the legal and financial consequences, if any. Al-Ittihad Club has 9 foreign players, while Al-Nasr also has 9 in the presence of Ospina, but they dropped his name last season and he is training at the club until he recovers from his injury, while Macedonian Ezgjan Alioski is the ninth foreign professional in Al-Ahly.
