The Saudi Pro League management has officially notified all championship clubs that matches will continue as scheduled, despite the sharp escalation of the military conflict in the Middle East. The corresponding letter was sent to teams after a series of alarming incidents in the region.
Details: According to The Athletic, the organizers of the Saudi Arabian championship are insisting on following the calendar, aiming to maintain the stability of the country's sporting life even amid heightened danger.
The situation in Saudi Arabia has become tense after the country's Ministry of Defense confirmed an Iranian drone attack on the US embassy in Riyadh earlier this week. Despite a direct security threat in the capital and border regions, football authorities currently see no grounds for suspending the competition.
So far, none of the Pro League clubs have officially withdrawn from the upcoming rounds, so the 25th round, scheduled for tomorrow, will start on time. In particular, Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr will play their match against Neom.
Reminder: Al Nassr has revealed details of Cristiano Ronaldo's injury.
