Saudi Arabian Football Federation Opens Registration for Non-Saudi Players

The Saudi Arabian Football Federation has decided to open the list of the Roshn Saudi League clubs (during registration periods) to non-Saudi players without upper limits.

This will only take place through the registration systems accredited by the federation, with the non-Saudi professional players to be determined within the permissible limit of 8 players via the electronic system of the Saudi Pro League (SPLIS), during the deadline set on September 15th.

According to SPA, the decision aims to provide a better opportunity for clubs and players during the transfer period and to enhance the role of the Roshn League in organizing and managing the competition through the relevant regulations set forth by the board of the Saudi Pro League.

Toyota Motor Chairman Akio Toyoda confirmed on Thursday the company will not renew its 10-year contract as a top sponsor for the Olympics and Paralympics following the Paris Games.
The world's biggest automaker, which had already suggested it would not renew the contract when it expired, will continue to financially support athletes, Toyoda said in the company-owned media channel.
Earlier this month, Panasonic Holdings announced it would also end its 37-year contract as a top sponsor after it became an official partner of the Olympic Games in 1987, according to Reuters.
The International Olympics Committee saw revenues of $2.295 billion from its top sponsors for the period 2017-2021, the second-biggest source of income for the Olympic movement, with broadcasters paying $4.544 billion over the same period.
