Al Hilal, Al Ahli, Al Fat'h, Faisaly and Al Qadisiyah football clubs obtained the Asian license for the 2018-2017 sports season. In a statement announced here today, the Club Licensing Committee said that it did not grant the license to the clubs of Al Nasr, Al Ittihad, Al Shabab, Al Ta'awun, Al Ittifaq, Al-Battin and Al Ra'id because they did not meet the required standards to acquire the license. The Cub Licensing Committee found that Al-Fayhaa and Uhud clubs were unable to apply for a license to start the proceedings, before the teams joining the professional league.
