Red Sea Global renews Al-Ahli sponsorship as AMAALA takes shirt front

CONSUMER NEWS

Red Sea Global (RSG), a PIF company and regenerative tourism developer, has renewed its sponsorship of Al-Ahli Saudi Football Club for the 2026-2027 season, extending a partnership that began in 2023.

Under the new agreement, AMAALA will feature on the front of Al-Ahli's first-team shirts, replacing the Red Sea Global brand as the partnership enters a new phase.

“When we signed with Al-Ahli three seasons ago, we made a commitment to be an active partner in the journey of Saudi sport. Today, as AMAALA opens to the world, it is fitting that our partnership also enters a new chapter. Both sport and wellness are built on the pursuit of performance, wellbeing and human potential, making this a natural partnership. By bringing the AMAALA name to the front of the team's shirt, we are introducing one of the world's most comprehensive wellness destinations to millions of football fans across the Kingdom and beyond,” said John Pagano, Group CEO at Red Sea Global.

RSG became Al-Ahli's Platinum Sponsor in June 2023. Since then, the club has won back-to-back AFC Champions League Elite titles in 2025 and 2026, along with the 2025 Saudi Super Cup.

The branding change reflects AMAALA's shift from development to operations following the arrival of its first guests earlier this year. Located on Saudi Arabia's northwestern coast, AMAALA combines luxury hospitality, wellness, culture and marine experiences.

Four Seasons Resort and Residences AMAALA and Six Senses AMAALA are now open, with six additional resorts expected to open in the coming months.

Fabrice Bocquet, Chief Executive Officer of Al-Ahli Saudi Football Club Company, said: “Renewing our partnership with Red Sea Global extends a relationship that has proven its value over three seasons, accompanying the club's journey and its achievements. For our first team to carry the AMAALA name is an honor that reflects the club's standing and connects our fans' passion with a global Saudi destination. In this next phase, we look forward to a deeper partnership that serves the club, Saudi sport, and the aspirations of our loyal supporters.”

The renewed sponsorship supports RSG's strategy to raise AMAALA's profile across Saudi Arabia and the wider region while contributing to Vision 2030's goals of connecting tourism, sport and national development. -TradeArabia News Service
