Officials still plan to keep Donis, journalist says.

The Asian Cup's postponement to December 2027 prompted Saudi journalist Badr Al-Saqri to ask federation officials about Giorgos Donis's future. Al-Saqri says they told him they aren't considering dismissing Donis or hiring a new coaching staff, and expect him to lead Saudi Arabia at the tournament. Donis's contract ends in July 2027, before the competition begins, but Al-Saqri reports the officials saw no problem with extending it for another year. For now, the reported plan is to keep the coach through the delayed tournament.
