Omar Artan to Referee UEFA Super Cup After World Cup Setback

11 Haziran 2026

Somali referee Omar Artan has been appointed to officiate the UEFA Super Cup clash between Paris St-Germain and Aston Villa later this summer. This appointment comes after a disappointing setback where Artan was denied a spot at the World Cup. His selection for such a prestigious match highlights the faith UEFA has in his abilities, and it serves as a redemption opportunity for the official. As he prepares to oversee this high-profile encounter, the football community will be keenly watching how he manages the match, especially given the stakes involved for both clubs.
