The UAE Football Association's Disciplinary Committee penalized United for two compliance failures during the club's President's Cup participation. The decision made United the most heavily sanctioned club among the UAE teams covered.
The decision concerned compliance with medical and administrative requirements, rather than the outcome of a match or the conduct of players.
United's fine covers two separate breaches
AED 30,000 of United's fine followed the club's failure to comply with the Sports Medicine Committee's decisions. United also failed to submit the approved medical notification form. The committee imposed a further AED 10,000 penalty because the club had not updated its location data. Al Bayan independently reported the same breakdown of the AED 40,000 total.
Medical reporting accounted for most of the fine. The remaining amount related to United's records.
Two clubs fined and seven warned
Al Bataeh and Al Dhafra were each fined AED 10,000 for missing the required deadlines to update their location data. The committee issued formal warnings for the same type of organisational breach to Al Arabi and Khorfakkan. Gulf United and Fort Virtus also received warnings.
The available independent report records the sanctions but does not mention an appeal by United, a cancellation of the fine, or any later change to the decision.
The ruling places a direct cost on missed medical and administrative requirements. The fines and warnings show that the committee is enforcing those obligations.
