Al-Nassr have been placed under a FIFA transfer ban that prevents them registering new players from December 19, with the sanction recorded as lasting “until lifted”. Several other Saudi clubs, including Al Shabab, Damac and Al Riyadh, have also been hit with similar restrictions. The ban’s duration and precise cause have not been publicly detailed, echoing a 2023 registration suspension resolved when Al-Nassr cleared outstanding financial obligations. The new halt creates major uncertainty around mid-season squad planning in Riyadh and could force the club to prioritise internal solutions.
