Moroccan striker Abdul Razzaq Hamdallah will be absent from matches for 44 days, after he was suspended by the Professionalism and Player Conditions Committee of the Saudi Football Association on Tuesday for 4 months, against the background of his case with his former club, Al-Nasr.
Hamdallah’s suspension begins on August 2, and extends until December 2, ie 122 days, but the Saudi League competition, which will start later this month, will stop more than once during the validity of the Moroccan striker’s sentence.
The league competition begins 23 days after the start of the penalty, and then the league will stop in September during the FIFA days between 17 and 30 September, ie 13 days.
It is proposed that the Saudi team’s preparation for the World Cup begins between October 17 and November 20, which means that the league competition will stop for a period of 34 days, and the “green” will play its matches in the World Cup over 8 days between November 22 and 30.
It is certain that Abdul Razzaq Hamdallah will return to the matches in the tenth round of the league competition, which is proposed to be held between December 15-17.
