Observation - It’s been going on as a gossip or will I say argument.
That players of nowadays are more focus on making money rather than playing for passion like the old days.
I also can strongly say that passion for football ends in Ronaldo and Messi ERA.
So many headlines has been flying around, about players either wanting to change clubs because they want to secure a huge paycheck. While others still in their current club demanding a pay rise to a new contract.
The Saudi Arabia side has now made it more obvious by opening the door to players who are more interested in money than passion to come in.
I need more clarity on this matter, which is the reason I brought it on here.
Please when commenting let there fact that will be helpful
Nothing new under the sun, I think. I know what you are talking about when you say the passion for football seems to have faded away with the end of the dominance of Messi and Ronaldo, opening a path to new players who may not be as interested in becoming legends, but only partake in football (and other sports) for the sake of profit and to get better contracts in foreign leagues.
One cannot blame them, though, it does not matter what profession one has chosen to earn money, one will always move towards where the best salaries and contracts are, one does not need to be a football player to experience that. if anyone in my family was given the opportunity to start from the beginning in a company, with a better salary, more spare time and even medical benefits, it would be a no-brainer, the change would be almost instant. The same is happening to the new generation of football players and sport professionals, before thinking of what the sport means to them, then need to secure their future economically.
