Al-Arabi Club accuses KFA of mishandling Hamdan transfer
KUWAIT CITY, July 6: Al-Arabi Club has formally written to the Kuwait Football Association (KFA), expressing surprise and concern over the association's lack of response regarding the removal of defender Hassan Hamdan from Al-Arabi's roster. The letter highlights the involvement of KFA President Sheikh Ahmed Al-Yousef, who urged the prevention of violations to safeguard club rights and maintain the association's reputation among sports fans. Al-Arabi accused the KFA of ignoring a notarized contract and attempting to issue an International Transfer Certificate (ITC) without proper authorization. On June 19, Al-Arabi submitted Hamdan's new contract to the KFA for registration and authentication, proving his ongoing contractual ties. Despite responding promptly to KFA's July 3 request for additional information, Al-Arabi discovered through the Transfer Matching System (TMS) that their name was removed from Hamdan's records. The club claims the KFA issued the ITC before receiving their reply, violating official procedures. The letter alleges deliberate delays and obstruction aimed at undermining Al-Arabi's contractual rights by processing the ITC before the new contract was officially approved, raising concerns of bias and unfairness. Al-Arabi warns that the KFA's silence could strengthen the player's position and potentially lead to future arbitration disputes, damaging the reputations of both Al-Arabi and the Kuwait Football Association. The club holds the KFA fully responsible for any legal or sporting consequences arising from this inaction. Separately, Al-Arabi is preparing a formal complaint against Al-Ahli Club of Jordan for engaging in unauthorized negotiations with Hassan Hamdan despite his active contract with Al-Arabi. This follows a previous failed negotiation with the Al-Ramtha Club of Jordan last June.

St Mirren transfer genius as they land 200 grand for star man with weeks left on his contract
The 27-year-old flew out to the United States at the start of the week to finalise his move. Toyosi Olusanya has completed his medical and is expected to complete his Houston Dynamo move before the close of the Major League Soccer signing deadline. Record Sport broke the story last week that St Mirren had accepted a £200,000 bid from Dynamo for their striker. The 27-year-old flew out to the United States at the start of the week to finalise his move. Personal terms have been agreed and the club is down the road for a work visa. The deal is set to be rubber-stamped by MLS and then go through the Transfer Matching System before the American primary window closes tomorrow. It is a brilliant bit of business for the Buddies as their forward only had two months left on his contract and was expected to leave for nothing in the summer. This has been Olusanya's best campaign, as he has netted 12 goals for Stephen Robinson's side in all competitions. He moved from Middlesbrough on a free transfer in 2022.
