In an interview with Saudi media, the chairman of the Saudi Football Association said that the Jeddah Nationals may be deprived of the Saudi Super Cup championship.

Saudi Football Association Chairman Yasser said that the Saudi Sports Arbitration Center is currently hearing the case of the Saudi Super Cup champions, and we will respect all decisions it will make and will implement them immediately.

The Saudi Football Association bears full responsibility for everything that happened in the Super Cup. The events that occurred damaged the reputation of the event. The relevant decisions made by the Appeals Committee before the start of the Super Cup were wrong.

After Riyadh Crescent illegally withdrew from the competition, Kudisiya should be judged to have defeated Riyadh Crescent instead of allowing the Jeddah Nationals to participate as a substitute. The appeals committee's wrong decision at the time led to a series of chaos later, and now the Jeddah Nationals may be deprived of their championship because they were not eligible to participate.

But Yasir did not reveal who could replace the championship. Riyadh Victory lost to Jeddah National in the final, and it was Kudisiya who was supposed to face Riyadh Victory in the final.
