The most interesting part of this moves is that they are still requesting for more good players and I wonder if they had plans to move all the European players to Saudi Arabia. Look at the players they are signing from the season transfer window opened, most of them may look older but most of them were all present in the Champions League last two season before the just concluded one, Saudi pro league has never go public this way before and I still wonder where they source this money.

I am also interested in this league but there is restriction of language barrier, everything they do always prescribed in Arabic and make difficult in entertaining, I don't enjoy watching ball more if everything they do is in language I don't hear, commentators the same thing. Even in laliga, Seria A and Bundesilga still speaks english for the world to understand but English is hard thing Saudi will every adopt.

Why has everyone started noticing this now and attributing high salaries as an influence to Saudi Arabia? Look at the transfers a year or at least two years before the SPL became popular, the prices were slightly lower but also extremely high, including the salaries paid to the players were insane. Prices are going up, and that's normal. Saudi Arabia only pay huge money to Ronaldo at the moment. Naturally I'm not talking about transfers, but wages. Transfers at the usual level, at the European level.

Due to his lack of desire in playing for Inter Milan or Chelsea, Lukaku did not completely respond to all transfer rumors. Despite the lack of attackers in the league, few teams were interested in signing him.

As the campaign to sign Osimhen is not progressing as well as Mbappe, it will be a nice deal for Chelsea.

Exactly. After Ronaldo, many European team players transferred to the Saudi Arabian league with peace of mind. I'm sure many of them have met with Cristiano Ronaldo and have resolved their concerns. Benzema may be one of them, after all. Now that Mane has joined, I can follow Al Nassr matches in the Saudi Arabian league with pleasure

According to some media here, Vlahovic Lukaku can be a deal done before the end of this week.

Lukaku + 35/40m for Vlahovic.

They will be unjust, in my opinion, if they do not allow this deal to go through and allow Harry Kane to join Bayern Munich. This player has performed admirably for them, and because his luck is not with the team to win a trophy, they should enable him to try out for other teams as well. Since Harry Kane joined Tottenham, the team has consistently been one of the best in the Premier League, which could be due to Harry Kane's remarkable performance each season. He was once one of the top scorers in the league, but he never won a trophy. This is the appropriate time for him to depart.


Many people refer to them as Arab money since they are extremely wealthy and have the ability to influence the football world, which they already do. We thought China could change the narrative of the top paid leagues for football players a few years ago, and while they did, it didn't really make their league more popular throughout the world. Saudi Arabia became well-known after acquiring Ronaldo, which paved the way for more players to join the league. I believe they will change the narrative this time and compete with European football in the coming years.

There were a few players before Ronaldo, just no big star as he is. Ronaldo has so many fans, many 100 million, so he changes a lot and he has in the last 10 months. Now finally Sadio Mane Go away from Germany, that should have happened long ago. Al-Nassr should have a good chance to win the title next season, they brought 4 new good players.

Looking at the situation no one will blame Tuchel because he did what he planned on the other hand this will also not blame Mane for leaving because there is no reason for him to stay in the middle of his condition which is not really needed in the squad and only fills the bench.
Now they just have to focus on their respective goals with Mane focusing on his new club and Tuchel focusing on improving Bayern with the plans he will do.
Many people regret decisions like this but of course this is the right decision for both parties.

Of course the transfer fee for a talented young player who is famous for his current skills is too ridiculous. I didn't expect Joško Gvardiol to be worth that much, but madness is only always possible when a team as strong as Manchester City financially actually force a transfer.

Not only Manchester City, I think a lot of other Premier League teams are also doing this big business out of control. Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea are some of the teams that tend to spend a lot of money on star players, as a result many expensive transfers occur among them. Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​​PSG and a few other teams in Europe are doing it too, but obviously only if they really expect the player to join them.

The more players who are in the Arab league this season, the more they will get exposure and indeed now with the money that Arab clubs have, it is clearly an easy treasure trove for some of these players.
On the other hand now it is clear Liverpool must look faster. Fabinho although quite old but he is one of the most central players and rarely replaced at Liverpool.
Even if it is possible that his position can still be filled by Arnold where Klopp's experiment last season was successful but still this must be a worthy replacement in the end.
On the other hand, there is still the name Curtis Jones who is predicted to be able to contribute as well as Fabinho's successor but of course this also still needs to be proven.

I don't know exactly, with the project initiated by the Saudi kingdom and the PIF company. simple logic, they know what they are doing. their aim, it seems, is not just to develop their football league and introduce it to the world. because, indirectly, what they are doing has become the center of attention from all the eyes of football fans around the world. Saudi trend, became very famous by bringing in top European players. then do they want to become a super league in a short time, the answer does not seem to be the case. whether their football will immediately increase rapidly, it doesn't seem like that.

I believe, if they are well aware of what they are planning. moreover, the Saudi clubs have poured out huge sums of money. but don't worry, because they have abundant resources to maintain this kind of hype for at least the next 4-7 seasons. anyway, if i'm not mistaken, there are some clubs that have their own football academies. it seems, they also plan to develop the talents of the younger generation.
well, according to the initial scenario, they also target to host the 2030 world cup. what are the advantages, I think we are aiming at the business sector which is their investment. not only from football, but football can be an entry point for them. by the way, this is just my personal opinion. most likely, what I said is not like the actual scenario.

Seeing the number of experienced and good players joining the Saudi pro league this summer, I must confess that I am now interested in following the Saudi league. Fabinho joining Karim Benzema And Ngolo Kante at Ittihad will further boost the team’s improvement for the coming season. I believe this league will be very competitive with the admissions this summer. Everything that was predicted when Ronaldo joined Al Nassr is happening.

Chelsea might had just shot themselves on the leg because rumour has it that Ugochukwu was the intended replacement for Caicedo by Brighton if a deal finally gets reached between the two clubs. Now if Brighton before would had considered a selling prize close to what they were asking for so they can use some of the money to sign Ugochukwu that won't happen again as Chelsea has bought the player. I'm with Pochettino on this this, we already have too many youngsters in the team and they'll be giving starting position so we don't need more young players but experience ones will be great so Chelsea hurry to sign Caicedo or go with other options that's been linked to the club.


Mbappe should just go to Saudi for the one year and return back to Europe through his agreement with Real Madrid (since he has already agreed to play for the club in 2024 as reported by numerous media and suspected by PSG). He has already stayed in PSG for August so he's eligible for his loyalty bonus. Now he should just go get the bag and return to real football next season. Chelsea doesn't need him if he's just going to leave us after one year. We can't build the club around him and he just leave us to dry. Todd Boehly should stop chasing after him unless he's just using him as clout to attract other players to the club. There's too much attention on Mbappe and that's won't be nice on a footballing level for the club.

Tuchel did not see Mane as a player of the first squad, so this transition is justified. And by the way, no one will accuse Mane of greed - as far as I remember, he donated a significant part of his salary to improve life in his village where he comes from. Given the poverty of Senegal, this was very significant, now after quadrupling his salary, he will be able to donate more (if he wants).

Some sources reported that Manchester City paid Am I the only one thinking that all the recent transfer fees are insane though. I mean yeah he is a great player but obviously he is no where near the cost of 90 million for a 21 years old player. If city paid around 50 mil or something, that would have already been decent price already

Haaland cost even less compared to Josko, all recent transfer's number are getting out of hands

If you would like to find out about my answer it is no. I don't think Bernardo Silva would like to leave Europe now. He has won his first Champions League title in his career with Manchester City. I think this will make him even more competitive to fight for increasing the number of his achievements.

He is going to be 29 years old eight days later and has two more years to go on his contract. I think he will stay at Manchester City at least until the end of his current contract. But I feel like he will even extend the duration of his contract soon as the potential offer by his team is said to be huge like I said.

Manchester city has reportedly reached an agreement to bring in one of the stars of the 2022 world cup who is now defending Leipzig, namely Josko Gvardiol. His cost is estimated at around 90 million euros and this week he will undergo a medical test before being announced as an official Manchester City player. Now for matters of Manchester City's defense line there is no need to be confused for a long time and Pep Guardiola is certainly happy to be able to get one of the talented players who is still 21 years old. I think this is the most successful transfer for Manchester City this season and Josko Gvardiol's choice was the right choice to join last season's treble winner.

And offers from several clubs in the Saudi Arabian League can make players from Europe tempted, especially since the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane and other stars can help allay other players' fears that their futures may be over if they decide to move to the Arab League. This is a new phenomenon in football after Cristiano Ronaldo decided to move and join Al Nassr

Salaries paid in the Saudi Arabian league have caused a redistribution of cards in the football world. Europe's leading teams will now have to pay big bucks to keep players on the team. Like a snowball, this will affect both the strong and the weak, and I think the football industry will fall into a great economic crisis. Saudi Arabia influences the entire football world.
