The Al-Riyadh Post

1 Nov 2027
From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market1 Nov 2027

Lasha-Giorgi Titvinidze hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Al-Riyadh can pretend not to have heard.

Match30 Oct 2027

Al-Riyadh find a way past Al-Orobah

Al-Orobah made Al-Riyadh work for it, but the scoreboard read 2-1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Boardroom1 Nov 2027

Wages eat 149% of everything Al-Riyadh earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad1 Nov 2027

The manager makes an example of Nawaf Al-Bishri

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad1 Nov 2027

Sergio González is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.26 with 6 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Sultan Harun wants to come home

“I did not go to Al-Ta'ee to sit and watch. I want to come back to Al-Riyadh and fight for my place.” 3 appearances in 9 matches say the rest.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad1 Nov 2027

Sultan Harun says Al-Ta'ee went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Boardroom1 Nov 2027

Wages eat 177% of everything Al-Ta'ee earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Loan watch1 Nov 2027

Ammar Al-Ammar wants to come home

“I did not go to Al-Mojzel to sit and watch. I want to come back to Al-Ta'ee and fight for my place.” 0 appearances in 15 matches say the rest.

Squad1 Nov 2027

Törles Knöll gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match30 Oct 2027

A bad afternoon for Al-Ta'ee against Al-Nahda

0-1 to Al-Nahda, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Market1 Nov 2027

Talks stall between Al-Ta'ee and Abdulkarim Sultan

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Al-Riyadh lose Leandro Antunes

17 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Tozé signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Tozé commits to Al-Riyadh for another 2 years.

Match2 Oct 2027

Al-Riyadh get the job done against Al-Jeel

A 2-1 win over Al-Jeel, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Vahid Asgarpour asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market4 Oct 2027

Teddy Okou linked with a move away

The name of Teddy Okou keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Al-Riyadh say nothing, which says plenty.

In brief

  • The terraces The press have found their man in Tozé
  • The terraces The stand has a song for Tozé

Squad30 Aug 2027

Al-Riyadh lose Milan Borjan

83 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Match28 Aug 2027

Al-Riyadh and Al-Batin cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Al-Batin came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Market30 Aug 2027

The Leandro Antunes talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Al-Riyadh know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Squad30 Aug 2027

Jonata Machado: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Al-Ta'ee have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market30 Aug 2027

Salem Al-Toiawy has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Al-Ta'ee they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Match28 Aug 2027

4 matches without a win for Al-Ta'ee

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Al-Ta'ee are no longer polite ones.

A 2-2 draw with Al-Mojzel leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Adulrahman Al-Shammari keeps Al-Riyadh in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Market23 Aug 2027

Nahuel Contreras hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Al-Riyadh can pretend not to have heard.

Al-Ta'ee expected to open talks for Sultan Harun

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Al-Riyadh will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.
