Al Hilal condemns Thmanyah TV claims over club contracts, demands correction

Al Hilal's board of directors has strongly denounced claims made by a guest on Thmanyah TV regarding the club's contracts, asserting that the statements are irresponsible and lack any factual basis. The board emphasized their commitment to upholding governance standards and legal protocols. They criticized the program for allowing such allegations without demanding evidence from the guest, which they deemed a breach of professional responsibility.

Al Hilal's contracts and financial operations are conducted in line with approved regulations, and the board stressed that the timing of the allegations' broadcast on the official Saudi championship channel added to the gravity of the situation. The board revealed that it has recently identified several similar instances of misconduct against the club across multiple media outlets.

Despite the absence of public acknowledgment, the company is diligently documenting these violations and intends to pursue legal action to safeguard the club's rights and reputation. The board affirmed respect for freedom of expression and media critique, but underlined that such respect does not condone the dissemination of false or malicious information. The club remains resolute in its determination to address any violations that impact its standing.
