More than 100 professional female footballers have signed an open letter to FIFA, demanding the termination of its partnership with Saudi oil company Aramco. The players expressed outrage over the recently announced deal, which grants Aramco sponsorship rights for the 2026 men’s World Cup and 2027 women’s World Cup.

The footballers described the partnership as “a kick in the gut” and called for a replacement sponsor that aligns with values of gender equality, human rights, and environmental sustainability.

FIFA responded, highlighting the financial benefits of the partnership, which they claim have been reinvested in women’s football globally.

However, the players remain unconvinced, citing concerns over Saudi Arabia’s human rights record and Aramco’s contribution to climate change.
