The truth about Mohammed Abu Shamat's contract extension with Al-Qadisiyah and the details of the renewal
Informed sources within the corridors of the Saudi Al-Qadisiyah Club revealed the truth about the news circulating recently regarding the existence of negotiations taking place between the club’s management and the young player Mohammed Abu Al-Shamat, the team’s right-back, with the aim of amending the terms of his contract and increasing his annual salary in the current period.
Sources confirmed to Okaz newspaper that Al-Qadisiyah's management has not entered into any new discussions or negotiations with the player regarding increasing the financial value of his contract, denying the rumors that circulated in recent hours about granting the player additional benefits. The sources explained that Al-Qadisiyah's negotiator is currently outside the Kingdom, thus refuting the notion of any urgent meetings being held for this purpose.
Administrative stability and long-term contract
This denial comes amid the stability the club is experiencing, as the administration had previously succeeded in securing its young talent by renewing Mohamed Abu Al-Shamat's contract to continue defending the colors of "Banou Qadis" until 2029. This step is considered part of the club's strategy to maintain its basic pillars and ensure the technical stability of the first football team for years to come.
The importance of Abu Shamat in the Jerusalem map
Twenty-two-year-old Mohammed Abu Shamat is considered one of the most promising rising stars in Saudi football at right-back. He secured a regular starting position with the team's coaching staff thanks to his impressive performances last season and his significant contribution to the team's positive results. His well-balanced defensive and offensive capabilities make him an indispensable member of the starting lineup.
The new Qadisiyah project and its impact
It is worth noting that Al-Qadisiyah Club is undergoing a historic and pivotal phase following its acquisition by Saudi Aramco, which has raised expectations and placed the club in the spotlight. The management's new project focuses on attracting international stars while simultaneously retaining young local talents like Abu Shamat, to ensure the development of a competitive team capable of challenging the top clubs in the Saudi Professional League.
Adherence to the player’s current contract until 2029 reflects the club’s desire to enforce financial and administrative discipline, and not to be swayed by pressures to amend existing contracts without urgent technical or contractual reasons, which enhances the professionalism of work within the Al-Qadsia system, which seeks to restore the club’s glory and compete for local and continental titles in the near future.
