Hervé Renard has terminated his contract with the Saudi national team and paid the penalty clause, which is notable news since the French coach had performed well in the recent World Cup in Qatar. However, he chose to return to his home country to coach the French women's national team. The termination of the contract between Renard and the Saudi Football Association came as a surprise to everyone, as the French coach had a long-term strategy in place aimed at leading the Saudi team to championship victories. He had received all necessary support and provisions to achieve the successes desired by the Saudi public, amidst the significant development occurring in the kingdom, particularly in sports.
