According to what was published by the Saudi Al-Riyadiya newspaper, the Football Association officials decided to cancel the idea of playing the Saudi Super Cup in China from August 13 to 17, due to the difference in the terms of the contract between the two parties, which led to the termination of the verbal agreement.
She added that the trend is to hold the Saudi Super Cup in the cities of Taif and Abha due to the favorable climate in the summer and the encouragement of domestic tourism in the country.
She added that there is an offer from Qatar to host the Saudi Super Cup in air-conditioned stadiums where the 2022 World Cup matches were organized, but their chances seem less.
The Saudi Super Cup semi-final will be played on the 13th and 14th of next August, while the final will be on the 17th of the same month.
Al-Hilal Club will face its counterpart Al-Ahly in the Saudi Super Cup semi-finals, while Al-Nasr will clash with Al-Taawoun.
Al-Hilal Club won the Saudi Super Cup in the last edition at the expense of Al-Ittihad, 2-1, in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE.
