Al-Mohanna Criticizes Tareis Coverage
Omar Al-Megna, former head of the referees committee at the Saudi Football Federation, revealed that the current referees committee head is not welcomed by FIFA, which negatively impacted the participation of Saudi referees in the 2026 World Cup, and they did not receive sufficient support. Al-Megna confirmed that international referee Khaled Al-Treess was deserving of overseeing matches in the last World Cup and is better than some of the referees who officiated there. He also emphasized that having a foreign head of the committee is illogical and bothersome, noting that the current committee was not serving Saudi officials but rather supported foreigners. Al-Megna expressed his hope that a Saudi would be appointed as committee head, highlighting prominent qualified candidates such as Abdulrahman Al-Zaid, Khalil Jallal, and Abdullah Al-Qahtani, asserting that he himself is qualified for the role and surpasses the current president. He also voiced his dissatisfaction with the appointment of foreigners to oversee matches in Saudi tournaments.
