The 2023–24 Saudi Pro League (known as the Roshn Saudi League for sponsorship reasons) is the 48th edition of the Saudi Professional League, the top Saudi professional league for association football clubs, since its establishment in 1976. Fixtures for the 2023–24 season were announced on 15 July 2023.[3]

Al-Ittihad are the defending champions after winning their 9th title last season.[4] Al-Ahli, Al-Hazem, Al-Okhdood, and Al-Riyadh join as the four promoted clubs.[5] They replaced Al-Adalah and Al-Batin who were relegated to the 2023–24 Yelo League. The league now has 18 teams for the first time as opposed to the 16 teams of prior seasons.[6]

Overview

Changes

On 14 April 2022, the Saudi FF announced that the number of teams would increase to 18 starting from the 2023–24 season. Therefore, only two teams would be relegated from the 2022–23 Saudi Professional League instead of the usual three, and four teams would be promoted from the 2022–23 Saudi First Division League.[7]

In June 2023, the Public Investment Fund acquired a 75% stake in Al-Ahli, Al-Hilal, Al-Ittihad and Al-Nassr.[8]
