Saudi Pro League is not as simple as it looks. Because there is more to do in these leagues. Clubs are very competitive. Al Hilal and Al Nasr are the only clubs in SPL who have managed to collect good points. Al Hilal and Al Nasr are two very strong and advanced clubs.
This league is popular enough and there is enough competition in this league that's why we talk about this league so much. There are many more leagues that we don't talk about that much but the main reason why we talk about this league so much is that many European players are playing regularly for various clubs in this league. Al Nasser and Al Hilal are not only two competitive teams but other teams in this league are also quite competitive. Al Ittihad We saw them win the title last season. If they didn't perform well, they wouldn't have beaten teams like Al Nasser or Al Hilal and won the title at all. It is clear that the competition in this season will be more competitive in the next season. Al Hilal Al Nasser and Al Ittihad as well as other clubs will probably add more to their squads this season.

Saudi Pro League is not as simple as it looks. Because there is more to do in these leagues. Clubs are very competitive. Al Hilal and Al Nasr are the only clubs in SPL who have managed to collect good points. Al Hilal and Al Nasr are two very strong and advanced clubs.
Looking at the numbers, there's no doubt to the fact that Cristiano Ronaldo have done exceptionally well to help his darling Al Nassr win trophies this season but unfortunately for the Portuguese superstar, his contributions weren't enough to help his club win any trophy in the just concluded season.
Saudi Pro League is not easy as it seems because there's more to accomplish. The clubs are highly competitive and not giving room for relenting resulrs. Al Hilal and Al Nassr are the only club in SPL that have proven to be strong enough to accumulate good points. Connecting Ronaldo stats and the previous season, he's been dynamic in all angles and have deliver his best for the club although we should admit the fact that Cristiano Ronaldo is suffering at Al Nassr when it comes to performance on the pitch. The club depends on the Portugal international for every single opportunity that comes his path.
Looking at the numbers, there's no doubt to the fact that Cristiano Ronaldo have done exceptionally well to help his darling Al Nassr win trophies this season but unfortunately for the Portuguese superstar, his contributions weren't enough to help his club win any trophy in the just concluded season.
Indeed. Ronaldo scored many goals in this season, he could score 44 goals in 1 season. No one doubt his ability as a machine goal, Ronaldo is still one of the great strikers in the world. However, winning a trophy needs a solid game of the whole players. It is useless if the defense is weak, Al Nassr still can't win the trophy although Ronaldo can be the top scorer. I don't know if it is about the unsuitable tactic but the quality of the defense of Al Nassr is clearly rather weak. It is normal if people blame the defenders of Al Nassr besides they blame the coach, too. The club management i think should go back to the drawing board and start try get more quality players to the team ahead of next season especially in the defense. Al Nassr's defense line I think is weak and if it can be strengthened, I think Al Nassr will definitely be winning lots of trophies come next season if Cristiano Ronaldo can as well continue with his impressive goalscoring form.
Al Nassr already has good quality attackers. I think they only need to focus on building their defense. The midfield line is also needed a big improvement if they want to compete with Al Hilal. Just look at Al Hilal, they only got 23 conceded goals during the season of 2023-2024. Meanwhile Al Nassr got 42 conceded goals. Considering the number of conceded goals, we can clearly know the difference of Al Hilal defense quality and Al Nassr defense quality. 
Here, the job also falls to the managers. Even if Al-Hilal maintains their squad, they already have a good enough squad.
~~
I've said it many times that Al-Nassr needs to strengthen its defense line, including the goalkeeper if they don't find the right players in this transfer window then there is no way to compete with Al-Hilal. We can check the standings Al-Nassr is only able to compete in scoring goals because they have some great strikers but look at the defense line Al-Nassr conceded 42 goals while Al-Hilal only conceded 23 goals that is enough to prove that Al-Nassr has a weakness there.
Reportedly Ronaldo asked Al-Nassr to bring in 2 players to strengthen their squad Casemiro and Nacho Fernandez are on the request list, Ronaldo definitely knows what the team needs it's just that so far there has been no further confirmation of this news. Actually, Casemiro had the opportunity to move to Al-Nassr because the situation was not good at Manchester United as we know, he is considered to have made mistakes in several matches.
The competition for the Saudi Pro League trophy will be even fiercer next season, because the other contestants will also improve their clubs too, and Al Hilal will still be difficult to beat. Meanwhile, I think Ronaldo request will be realized by the club, but it all depends on the players they are targeting. What is clear is that if Al Nassr fails to improve their defense, they will most likely fail again next season.

Considering the number of conceded goals, we can clearly know the difference of Al Hilal defense quality and Al Nassr defense quality. Ronaldo has been offered to play one more season for Al Nasser in the Saudi Professional League, meaning Ronaldo will definitely stay in Saudi Arabia next season. They didn't achieve anything this season but the regret of not being able to achieve has struck a chord in every football lover's heart. Ronaldo is a legendary player and we expect him to play and achieve as he did last season but unfortunately this season their team has not achieved anything good. This team will definitely start better next season and build on the achievements this team has into the next season. Ronaldo will perform better in the next season than what he has done for his team this season because his team depends on his performance a lot.
I don't remember that last season Ronaldo and Al-Nassr were able to win the title, whatever the title, because what I remember was that Al-Nassr failed to become champions of the Saudi pro league and also failed in in the Arabian King's Cup, but maybe I'm wrong.Ronaldo is a player who always wants to be the best, and being able to present a championship title for the team he plays for is like an obligation for him, only this time his journey has not been smooth, even though he can have several individual records but that is not enough to bring his club the prestigious title Saudi pro league, even buying Sadio Mane is not enough for Al-Nassr to become the best team here, so they should consider other options so that next season they don't experience failure again.

Cristiano Ronaldo has spoken to two his former team-mates in a bid to persuade them to join him at Al Nassr - Nacho Fernandez and Casemiro.
At this point, this man alone is creating a great future for Al Nassr. Well, I guess I cannot say Future. But definitely going to create a great team for Al Nassr. Al Hilal is still probably a better team. But if those players sexually join with Cristiano Ronaldo, Al Nassr is not going to be far behind. It is also clear that him not being able to win anything this season has hurt him even though he was the best scorer of the Saudi pro league. So he also wants to win things in the upcoming season. Let’s be honest, the craze that everyone has right now for the Saudi league is because of Cristiano Ronaldo. If he decides to retire, this craze is not going to be there anymore. Having Neymar is not going to be enough.

Just like i said before Nacho has uncertain future in Real Madrid because there is possibility he will leave this summer because his contract is expired so Al Nassr probably will gets him with free transfer status and for Casemiro actually he has contract until 2026 with Manchester United but since last summer Casemiro was linked to several Saudi Arabian clubs including Al Nassr and he might be will leave Manchester United and i think if Al Nassr is really want to buy these players then this transfer will be possibly to happend

Al Hilal had great success this season in the Saudi Pro League, they became champions without losing and only got 3 draws from the 34 matches they played. They only lost 6 points during the entire season. It's truly extraordinary what they have shown this season, they are very solid in all lines, from the defense line, midfield and front line showing equally good performances, so they can achieve extraordinary statistics.
No team can stop their dominance in the Saudi Pro League this season, Al Nassr, who is trying to provide competition, turns out to be no better than Al Hilal. And even in the few meetings they played, Al Nassr lost more than Al Hilal.
They really deserve to win the title this season, they showed that they are a champion team with their impressive performance during one season. Al Nassr must be able to improve even more if they want to compete closely with Al Hilal.
Al Hilal ended the season with great success at domestic level, they managed to win the trophy in an undefeated manner, but unfortunately that didn't happen in the Asian Champions League. Most recently, Al Hilal managed to win the Saudi Arabian King Cup by beating Al Nassr. This defeat automatically meant that Ronaldo and his colleagues ended the season empty-handed. I think Al Hilal deserved it, even though they won through a penalty shootout.No team can stop their dominance in the Saudi Pro League this season, Al Nassr, who is trying to provide competition, turns out to be no better than Al Hilal.

Al Nassr really has to build better squad depth, if they have the ambition to win a trophy next season, while Ronaldo is still by their side. It's true that Ronaldo is no longer young, but he is still capable of scoring lots of goals, and his experience and mentality can have a big influence on the team. If Al Nassr can recruit quality players, I think they will be as successful as Al Hilal next season.
Financially, Al Nassr will certainly not be hampered by recruiting players from European competitions, where Ronaldo influence can also smooth out these plans. The defense line is the main priority that must be improved, they must be able to reduce the number of goals conceded. For Al Nassr front line, I think it is very sharp, because Ronaldo is still capable of scoring lots of goals next season.
Just after the season ended and we are getting close to the transfer window, some players are getting linked to the Saudi teams again and especially some older players like Salah and Robert Lewandowski, however, Lewandowski already said he is not going to leave and he prefers to stay in Barcelona, but the other player linked Al Nassrt in Nacho the captain of Real Madrid.
Nacho just won the Champions League yesterday with Real Madrid but Ronaldo contacted him and he wants to make this player leave Real Madrid for Al Nassr to end his career there. Nacho is a 35-year-old player.
Yes, the transfer market is getting closer so it is not surprising that many top players from European clubs who are quite old are linked with Saudi Arabian League clubs. Because if players from top European clubs play in the Saudi Arabian League, they will definitely be offered quite expensive contracts. However, when talking about Lewandowski, it is true that he will continue to defend Barcelona next season. Moreover, currently Barcelona has brought in Hansi Flick as a new coach. So this will certainly make Lewandowski feel more at home at Barcelona, because Hansi Flick was his former coach when Lewandowski was still in the Bayern Munich uniform.Nacho just won the Champions League yesterday with Real Madrid but Ronaldo contacted him and he wants to make this player leave Real Madrid for Al Nassr to end his career there. Nacho is a 35-year-old player.
Then about Nacho, currently I haven't heard any news about him. However, if you look at his contract with Real Madrid, it will end this season. So, if for example Nacho doesn't get a contract extension, I think it's very likely he will join Ronaldo at Al Nasr. The reason is that it seems like there is no other club in Europe that is ready to bring in Nacho. This is normal considering that he is quite old now. So it is natural that, for example, he did not receive a contract extension from Real Madrid or other offers from clubs in Europe. Therefore, the Saudi Arabian League could be quite an attractive option for Nacho before retiring.
Look, there is no Talisca, Ronaldo will clearly have more difficulty in every attack attempt because Talisca plays very important role in Ronaldo success in creating opportunities and making it easier for Al Nassr to win every match.
If there is Talisca then I sure that Al Nassr will be guaranteed to be the winner and can beat Al Hilal in the last match of the season as well as win the Saudi Arabian King Cup, they fought in the penalty round and Al Hilal who won with difference of 1 point, was superior.
Indeed, the loss of a player who has been a mainstay will also affect the team's play. However, the problem is that the club they are facing is Al Hilal and we know that Al Hilal's defense is also very good this season, so I don't think Talisca's presence will say much when facing Al Hilal's defense. I say this not without basis, because I saw their meeting in the previous match this season, so it is true here that Al Hilal is better than Al Nassr.If there is Talisca then I sure that Al Nassr will be guaranteed to be the winner and can beat Al Hilal in the last match of the season as well as win the Saudi Arabian King Cup, they fought in the penalty round and Al Hilal who won with difference of 1 point, was superior.
In fact, in my opinion, AL Hilal's game in this match was not as usual or they experienced a slight decline, but they were still able to win the match even though they had to go through a penalty shootout. I actually predicted that they would lose, but amidst my feelings or predictions like that I hoped that Al Nassr could provide a surprise, but that didn't happen and they had to accept their defeat.

But it would be extraordinary if it turned out that Nacho came here to the SPL. And gathered with other former Real Madrid stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema. but if his decision is to go to MLS then that is also a good thing for him. It's just that now there are definitely more people hoping that Nacho will go to the SPL. Because somehow I personally am always happy to see other great players join the SPL. And makes the SPL even more lively and has increasingly fierce competition from season to season.
SPL is the new trend for players that have zero zeal for the European football, nothing to proof but move straight to the winning phase. Real Madrid will missed out on experienced players this season, I know this is tough for Real Madrid but they will always survive because playing cooperative style of football, it should be their major stream in pushing and accomplishing their goals. Nacho Hernandez will make his exits and look into offers from Saudi Pro League because this is probably one of the close former teammates of Cristiano Ronaldo.It's also sad for Real Madrid because they have to lose another player who has been in the squad, but this will always happen in football, especially if it is related to their age which is no longer young, sooner or later they will lose that player. . However, Real Madrid's preparations are also very good at this time, because they have been preparing for a long time to have young players who they are preparing to replace players who will leave. This is a thorough preparation that Real Madrid has done well.
All competitions have been completed and there is only one final competition remaining for the Saudi Arabian King Cup which will bring together the SPL champions and runners-up this season and will be quite dramatic final match in the 2023/24 season.
Al Hilal and Al Nassr will compete in the final of the King of Saudi Arabia Cup which will take place tomorrow and take place in King Abdullah Sports City, I think it will be full of excitement and the match can be quite fierce.
This is the last chance for Al Nassr to be able to win the title this season, Ronaldo looks very enthusiastic and enthusiastic about this match and hopefully he will be able to score goals and win the match like before.
In the semifinal match Saudi Arabian King Cup and also SPL match, Ronaldo was figure who contributed greatly to the victoryvictory, I really want to see Ronaldo able to do the same thing in the final against Al Hilal.
Al Nasir is good at there play combined with the Ronaldo effect, it would have been an easy game for them but when you're considering a rival like Al hilal, you can't bet that Al Nasir have a high chance of winning the kings cup. From there performance in the last match they played, you understand that Al Nasir scored an early goal but spent the whole 80+ minutes struggling to get another goal but couldn't until mane conceived a late penalty that brought the game a a 1:1 draw.Al Hilal and Al Nassr will compete in the final of the King of Saudi Arabia Cup which will take place tomorrow and take place in King Abdullah Sports City, I think it will be full of excitement and the match can be quite fierce.

This current version of Ronaldo isn't all too good at managing pressure when it comes to a match as this that would want to win by all means. It affects his overall play and makes him to miss lots of chances and if he's not ready to work on himself before the start of the finals against al hilal and allows his emotions to getter the better part of him, he's going to face deficulty scoring goals fir his team and eventually winning the trophy. But a win for Al Nasir would had up a lots to the goats portfolio as he's already won the highest goal scored in a single season in the Saudi pro league.its going to be a tough game but let's just hope the best team gets to win it.
There were no significant changes but the match round two was really very dramatic, Al Nassr first received 1 red card for goalkeeper and had to play with 10 players but in the second half everything went very interesting because Al Nassr dominated the attacks.
Al Hilal defenders looked more overwhelmed and several of Al Nassr attempts were thwarted until finally in the final minutes of the second half Al Hilal received 2 red cards for the defenders, in fact it was clear that Al Nassr had chance to win but the result was not as expected.
Look, there is no Talisca, Ronaldo will clearly have more difficulty in every attack attempt because Talisca plays very important role in Ronaldo success in creating opportunities and making it easier for Al Nassr to win every match.

Nacho Hernandez will make his exits and look into offers from Saudi Pro League because this is probably one of the close former teammates of Cristiano Ronaldo. It is true that Al Nasar's quality of play in the Saudi Professional League was very poor.
Al Nassr finished the season as the runner-up. It is strange if you claim Al Nassr performance is very poor.I know Al Nassr failed again to win the title of Saudi league but it is untrue if they are very poor. They won't finish in 2nd place if they are very poor. Anyway, if you take a look the squad quality, Al Nassr has enough top players. As far as I know, Al Nassr is in the 2nd position if we count the market value of the squad.
Cristiano Ronaldo failed to show consistent performance in the Saudi Professional League. Al Nasar's performance was so bad because of him alone.
This is totally non sense! I guess you don't follow the matches on Saudi league. 
If you follow the league, you must be aware that Ronaldo becomes the top scorer this season. He even made a new record, he scored 35 goals in 1 season. As an individual player, Ronaldo performed quite well. He contributed better than the previous season. But Al Nassr still can't be the champion because Al Nassr has bad defense in this season. It is wrong if you blamed Ronaldo's performance.

Sure, guy! Next season is Al-Nassr's chance. Despite his strength, Ronaldo can't do it alone. Obviously, defense needs work. Open transfer window. This is their time to get great players that fit the system, lock down the defense, and allow Ronaldo shine up top.
Every season is Al Nassr chance. I hope they won't fail again. Sure. If Al Nassr want to be the champion, they need a better defense. Buying some defenders in the next transfer window is the way to improve it. But they must also improve a bit their midfield line, I think it looks not strong enough. In some matches, they failed to dominate the ball possession. It indicates the midfielders are not good enough to control the match.
