Saudi Arabia is set to build three new stadiums and give a major overhaul to four others ahead of hosting the 2027 AFC Asian Cup, says the Kingdom’s football federation.
The stadium building projects were announced by the Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) as it was revealed the Kingdom would host Asia’s premier international football tournament.
The SAFF have given a first look at the upcoming Riyadh Stadium, Qiddiya Stadium and Dammam Stadium.
SAFF said the Riyadh Stadium would be built near to a metro station and has the possibility of increasing capacity.
The Dammam Stadium is designed to fit into the “region’s environment, enhance the fan experience and achieve aesthetic satisfaction”.
As well as building the Qiddiya Stadium, described as one of the masterpieces of the Asian Cup in 2027 renovations are also planned for existing stadia in Saudi Arabia.
