Omar Artan, Somali referee for Super Cup
Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Arten, 34 years old, faces numerous challenges after being barred from participating in the 2026 World Cup due to security screening revealing his alleged connections to terrorist organizations, which led to his entry being denied into the United States. Nonetheless, he was selected to officiate the UEFA Super Cup match between Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa in Austria. This marks his first appearance outside Africa since beginning his international career, as he is considered one of Africa's top referees and was chosen to oversee the match despite his circumstances.
