Mancini, who previously enjoyed success with Italy, couldn't replicate that at the helm of Saudi Arabia, struggling to secure victories and facing a disappointing Asian Cup exit.
The SAFF's official statement highlighted the mutual decision to end the contract, citing considerations regarding Mancini's performance, particularly after lackluster results like the draw with Bahrain.
Mancini’s tenure sparked questions about his fit for the Saudi team, especially after winning only 7 out of 18 matches and managing a challenging World Cup qualification scenario.
This move comes as Saudi Arabia appears to be seeking stronger leadership to enhance their football standing, given the team's recent underachievement under Mancini's guidance.
