Saudi Arabian’s billionaire mogul, Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, who was recently released from detention involving an anti-corruption sweep, told Arab News on Tuesday that he’s answering a government call to support local soccer clubs via a donation of SAR2 Million. 

A senior Saudi official confirmed to Reuters that Alwaleed was freed after a financial settlement with the attorney general, but no further details have been stated. 

The Prince tweeted a photo of himself watching the AFC Champions League game between Al-Hilal and Al-Ain on Tuesday

“Answering my brother Turki Al-Sheikh’s invitation to support Saudi clubs … I present 2 million Saudi riyals ($533,333) to support Al Hilal FC.” Al-Sheikh is the head of the General Sports Authority. 

The Al Hilal Saudi Football Club express their gratitude through the social media app
