Saudi Arabia Coach Denies Player Of Rolls Royce: Herve Renard, the manager of Saudi Arabia, refuted claims made by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman that each player will receive a Rolls-Royce Phantom following their victory over Argentina.
After their shocking 2-1 defeat on Tuesday, the nation was given the day off.
Saudi Arabia, ranked 51st in the world by FIFA, beat No.3 Argentina in their Group C opener, ending a 36-game unbeaten run.
In one of the greatest World Cup upsets ever, goals from Saleh Al Shehri and Salem Al Dawsari occurred after Lionel Messi’s opening strike.
According to some accounts, Bin Salman had promised the team a Rolls-Royce, with the price of the opulent Phantom starting at £363,600.
For Bin Salman, who reputedly has an $8 billion net worth, such a sum would have been equivalent to £9.4 million.
The manager of the national squad, nevertheless, says that the allegations are untrue.
Nothing about this is true, said Renard. The ministry of sport and our federation is highly serious organizations. Now is not the time to purchase anything.
