Somali Referee Omar Artan Appointed for UEFA Super Cup After World Cup Entry Setback

Somali referee Omar Artan has been appointed to officiate the UEFA Super Cup clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa later this summer.

The match, scheduled for 12 August in Salzburg, will see Champions League winners PSG face Europa League winners Aston Villa.

Artan’s appointment comes after he was reportedly denied entry into the United States, where he had been expected to officiate at the World Cup. The decision prevented him from becoming the first Somali referee to take charge of a World Cup finals match.

UEFA said the appointment was made after discussions with the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

UEFA president Aleksander Čeferin praised Artan as “an excellent young but already experienced referee,” saying football should be used to connect people and recognise talent across the world.

Artan, who was named CAF Men’s Referee of the Year in 2025, has been on FIFA’s international referees list since 2018.

Despite the disappointment of missing the World Cup, his UEFA Super Cup appointment is a major moment for Somali football and African refereeing.

For many fans, Artan’s story is now bigger than football. It is a story of resilience, recognition, and a dream that continues despite setbacks.

PSG Crowned Champions League Winners Again After Dramatic Final Against Arsenal

Paris Saint-Germain have once again written their name into European football history after winning the 2026 UEFA Champions League final against Arsenal in Budapest.

The final, played at the Puskás Aréna on Saturday, May 30, 2026, brought together defending champions PSG and an Arsenal side chasing their first Champions League title. UEFA had described the match as a historic final, with PSG aiming to defend their European crown while Arsenal hoped to become new winners of the competition.

The game ended 1-1 after extra time, forcing the final into a tense penalty shootout. According to live match reporting, PSG held their nerve and defeated Arsenal on penalties to secure back-to-back Champions League titles.

Arsenal started strongly, with Kai Havertz giving the English side an early lead. PSG responded later through Ousmane Dembélé, whose equaliser brought the French giants back into the contest. After extra time failed to separate the two sides, penalties decided the biggest prize in European club football.

For PSG, this victory is more than just another trophy. It confirms their place among Europe’s modern football giants and strengthens their reputation as one of the most dominant clubs in world football. Winning the Champions League once is special, but defending it shows consistency, mentality and a winning culture.

For Arsenal, the defeat will be painful. They came close to ending their long wait for European glory, but the night belonged to Paris Saint-Germain.

Cambodia Dismisses Viral Notice Ordering Kenyans and Other Africans to Leave as Fake

The Cambodian government has dismissed as fake a viral notice claiming that Kenyan and other African nationals living in the Southeast Asian country had been ordered to leave before May 31, 2026, or face arrest, imprisonment and heavy fines.

In a statement issued through the General Department of Immigration under the Ministry of Interior, Cambodian authorities said they had noticed reports published by some websites claiming that Africans with expired immigration waivers had been directed to exit the country by the stated deadline.

The department clarified that the information was false and misleading.

“The General Department of Immigration of the Ministry of Interior of the Kingdom of Cambodia wishes to clarify that the information published on those websites is completely untrue,” the statement said.

Authorities further urged the public, both locally and internationally, to rely only on official communication channels when seeking information related to immigration matters. The department advised people to visit its official website or contact its hotline directly for accurate updates.

The fake notice had claimed that immigration waivers previously granted to African nationals, including citizens from Kenya, Ghana, Cameroon and Uganda, would expire on May 31, 2026. It further alleged that those who remained in Cambodia from June 1 would be arrested at airports or other locations across the country.

The viral document also claimed that affected foreigners would face a two-year jail term and a penalty of $8,000, approximately Ksh.1 million, before being allowed to leave the country.

It further alleged that Cambodian police would begin operations targeting foreigners suspected of overstaying their visas or living illegally in the country from June 1.

However, the Cambodian government has now firmly rejected the claims, stating that the notice is not official and should not be treated as credible.
