A great referee shared his thoughts on possible transfers of the referee to the Asian region.
Mark Clattenburg came up with the idea of \u200b\u200b\u200b\u200ba possible performance of his colleagues from England in the championship of Saudi Arabia - reports the Times.
“I thought that I would still be able to go to the world championship in 2018, if I survived the competition at the international championship, and FIFA and UEFA insisted that I should not consider how the referee from Saudi Arabia Arabia, not Europe, and I don’t want to take anyone’s place. Therefore, referees need to be prepared before they may be blocked from access to matches of the Champions League, Euro and World Championships when they move there..
Of course, these are financial cities, but it’s a culture shock, if you’re there. You must adapt to another culture and respect it, there is no alcohol there, you organize your life around the hour of prayer, and Riyadh and Jeddah are also great places."
