As part of their community outreach, players from the Saudi national football team took a break from their World Cup preparations to bring some joy to patients at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre (KFSHRC) in Jeddah
On Tuesday evening, the team visited the hospital, delivering gifts and flowers to patients, hoping to lift their spirits and provide a bit of comfort during their stay.
This initiative is part of the team’s community outreach
This initiative aligns with the team’s commitment to giving back to the community, even while they gear up for their crucial match against Indonesia in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers on Thursday.
The hospital is world-renowned and a leading medical institution in Jeddah
KFSHRC, a world-renowned medical institution with 2,500 beds, is a leading center for complex procedures like heart, liver, and bone marrow transplants. It holds the top rank in the Middle East for academic medical institutions, according to Brand Finance, and was named among the top 250 hospitals globally by Newsweek magazine this year.
