The good news is that we will see Ronaldo and Messi meet again in a friendly match and it will be scheduled in February.

How not these star players will meet in one field with different clubs not in European matches anymore but Al Nassr vs Inter Miami which will be held in Riyadh as a season cup.

Obviously this is really interesting and seeing the ability of both of them again, statistically of course Al Nassr is superior to Inter Miami, it's interesting to wait.

Regardless of what we are going to see from the performance of these two teams, I think buying Messi and Ronaldo had many financial benefits for these two teams.
After Ronaldo joined Al Nassr they could use this popularity and have better marketing power, also this game will have good financial benefits for both teams since many people from all over the world will watch this match.
It will be a good preparation match. Both teams must have already decided to play the friendly match together because of the match between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Even though it is a friendly match, this match will be followed around the world because these two players will meet. Saudi Arabia has now become a center of attraction. Football can change everything.

While scrolling through the newsfeed, a news suddenly came in front of me that it is said that Al Hilal is going to cancel the contract with Neymar and the Saudi club will sign another player in place of Neymar. I don't know how true this news is, but I have come across such a news, so I shared this news in the forum. If anyone knows any accurate news about this then definitely share. When Neymar was sidelined for a whole season due to injury, I saw that Al Hilal players were talking about Neymar's side, so why is the club suddenly taking such a decision?
Have not come across the news doh but of it is true what must have been their reason to terminate their contract with neymar he his actually a very excellent player, or might be as a result of all the injuries but I will still check if its actually true. I enjoy how Neymar plays skillfully. And am just thinking if Saudi Arabia is to sign another player who would the player be, am just imagining who would want to play Neymars position. And the Saudi club will want to do what will favour the Condition of the club. So let's wait and hear from the horses mouth if it will actually be true, I won't be happy if it is actually true, because I love Neymar.

Well.. this happened sometime back. You are late. When Neymar got injured, Al Hilal wanted him to stay back in Saudi Arabia. But he decided to travel to Brazil instead. There was a lot of unease in Al Hilal over this. And in the end they decided to get him deregistered. This would mean that they will be able to get a replacement for Neymar from some of the foreign leagues (as already they had reached the maximum overseas player cap of 8 per club). Anyway, I am not very impressed with Neymar. He is being arrogant and unfair.
Such news about Neymar came to my attention yesterday so I am posting here today to confirm about this matter. This season, Neymar left PSG and signed for Saudi club Al Hilal, but after playing very few matches for Al Hilal, he suffered a major injury that looked set to miss the entire season. I heard that Neymar has a daughter which is why he left Saudi Arabia to stay in Brazil but if the club asks him to come to Saudi Arabia again and if he agrees to come to Saudi Arabia then it is natural that any club will be strict against him. You are right here Neymar shows arrogance and stubbornness. Neymar should have returned to Saudi Arabia and tried to heal himself in Saudi Arabia. Now Neymar may have to look for a new club because according to the rules he is not currently contracted to any club.

I have not found any news or reports from the media that say that the Saudi Pro League is a league that makes big profits or at least has earned the same as what they have spent by buying several stars from leagues in Europe. Maybe money is not a problem for Arabs because they are rich countries as long as oil continues to be used but of course, they also expect a return commensurate with the expenditure.
I never think a match like this is interesting to watch even though it is a match where Messi and Ronaldo will compete, but the pressure will not be visible in a match like that, and usually, only the fans of the two players will be more excited because they will mock each other on social media  Grin

Ronaldo and Messi provide benefits for both clubs, not only financially but also their abilities and experience in playing football, even though they are no longer young, they both still perform well in their respective leagues. There is no loss for the club that recruited them, they are players. stars who should be appreciated even when they retire.
The Saudi pro league has become famous since Ronaldo arrived at the Al Nassr club and this has become an advantage not only for the Al Nassr club but also a good advantage for other Saudi clubs because Saudi clubs will become more famous like European clubs.
Their meeting will definitely be much awaited by football fans and I also can't wait for it.

Very good information guys. This is what I want to see. Seeing two of the best players that I really admire in the current era of football. In a few years maybe these two players will retire. So the next few years will be their last moments. Bringing these two players together will definitely be very interesting. I personally will be on the side of Al-Nassr. But that doesn't mean I don't like Messi. But I rarely follow MLS matches. So I don't really know Inter Miami.

The current Al-Nassr should be more favored. Because there is a combination of Mane, CR7 and Talisca which is very difficult to stop this season. But it's a shame we have to wait quite a long time to watch this match, which looks like it will take place in February 2024.

The two greatest players of their generation will meet up in a friendly once again? This game will definitely bring out a lot of views.

After the FIFA World Cup and with Lionel Messi winning the Cup,  I never expected there will be more talks about the goat debate.  But, the goat debate still goes on till date. 
The fans have time for something the players don't even have for themselves.  It is football,  a game for everyone. That's have been said, Al Nassr has better players that can assist while attacking they will just have to warn their players over the dangerous Lionel Messi. The game will be fun.

I just came across a post on social media claiming to have come from the official page of Inter Miami disassociating themself from the friendly match. They said the owner of the team have not publicly or privately made a statement concerning that, so they’re not going to be playing any friendly match- Riyadh Season cup which is just within three teams; Inter Miami, Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal. They said it was inaccurate and are not participating in the competition.

There is some confusion related to this. Initially Inter Miami CF put up a statement claiming that the claim is false, but after a few hours the statement was deleted from their website. They claim that the club is yet to finalize the 2024 preseason schedule, but some informal talks maybe going on. Anyway, it looks as if Saudis are still pursuing Lionel Messi, after the failed attempt to get him play for one of the Saudi Arabian clubs. These two players - Messi and Kylian Mbappé were their prized targets and they still can't accept the fact that they were unable to get them onboard.

If talk about when you were young like Ronaldo, when he was the same age as Haaland, he could have become topic of conversation throughout the world among football fans, Ronaldo greatness even showed new football fans or fans who started to appear to idolize him.
All of this happened because Ronaldo had become great player and when he was with Manchester United it was clear that Ronaldo had career and achievements that were much better than all the Manchester United players at that time.
Now he is playing in the SPL and has brought big changes to the SPL especially for Al Nassr, the team he plays for.
Yes, he started his professional career in Sporting but he became popular in Man United. He is getting popular in Man United after he was selected as the successor of number 7 left by David Beckham. From this, we know him as CR7, then became an idol player at Man United. He won almost all trophies with Man United, he was a really sensational player at a young age. But before he moved to SPL, he got his best era at Real Madrid. He ever joined Juventus and Man United, too. Now, in SPL, he also created another great individual record, too.  Wink

Yes, these two players are both players in the attacking line, but you can see that the difference between the two is quite significant.
Maybe those football fans who haven't seen Ronaldo development since he first joined European football team will never know all this.
Sure, they are different type of attackers.
That's why I assume they cannot be compared.

Anyway, people who don't know Ronaldo well, very possible to assume Haaland is better. Those people may just know football recently.

 The Saudi Arabia league was the best one for the football players,because it was supported by the government of Saudi Arabia.So the Saudi Arabia was not worry for the funds shortage to requite and football players to their team.The Saudi Arabia Club had employee the many football players who had huge experience but at the age of the retirement and Saudi Arabia league was giving the settlement deal to the football players by making the contract with them at their last years in the football.The Saudi Arabia league had employee the world famous Mbappe and Ronaldo in the two big team was the unique stand of the Saudi Arabia clubs.

Honestly, I don't understand what you mean by this post. Really I didn't get the essence of what you said, forgive me for that. However, if you talk about funds for the needs of the players who compete in this league. It's very clear isn't it, I said it in the post above. that there were four clubs that were acquired by the PIF which is under the auspices of Prince Mohammed bin Salman and who is also the leader of the Saudi work. that way, they will not lack funds to bring in any player they are after. However, for what purpose, let's try to think broadly and look at it from all sides. Of course, they have a big project in bringing in top European players, especially those aged 30+. Not only that, PIF does not only operate in the sport of football. Yep, referring to several sources I read.

But to be honest, I don't understand that the Saudi Pro League is the best league for football players. which football player do you mean, who plays in this competition? if so, absolutely yes. moreover, for former top European players who are paid fantastic salaries. one more thing, Mbappe plays with PSG and not for the Saudi Pro League.

Ronaldo brought SPL to the lime light after he was signed, because it made other European players to see reason why they should move down to SPL and make the competition there very high compare to the way it was before the signing of Ronaldo. Ronaldo is an outstanding player and in any club that he is playing for, he always add an impact to the club positively and that is what makes him to be a great player.

The Saudis knew the potential of Ronaldo and that he can be used to bring the world to SPL and SPL to the world which was what they were looking for and now they have the opportunity to buy any player that they want that accepts to move over to the league, because it is not that the league is not recognize but it has become popular die to the caliber of players that are playing in the league. I believe that as time passes on SPL will be more interesting with high competition.
The Saudis visionized the benefit of Ronaldo in their league and ever since his arrival he's helped the league to be a focus for fans too, he was the first international signing for the league and other players have been seeing reasons why SPL should be considered in their next transfers.

 The league itself are eager to expand more as they have eyes on quality stats all around Europe, Ronaldo made wave at his first game in the league and he's been doing exceedingly well. Al Nassr recorded a huge increase in the normal of views they have on their social media handles at the instant his signing was complete.

 No doubt, there's what they call "the Ronaldo effect", Ronaldo a world star helped SPL grow in recognition and SPL are playing their part in ensuring that they keep that track of recognition and focus, and with they way they're going if they finally succeed in getting into the UCL like the rumours claim, they could become better than some European leagues.

Ronaldo's impact was so big but we must also try to remember how much money spent by saudi clubs to get him. Al nassr has paid him with lots of money. His salary has ever broken the new record as the highest paid player in the world.
That's very sad to see how messi rejected an offer from saudi pro league caused by he can surpass the salary received by ronaldo. Im thinking about they will be trying to sign more great players in upcoming months.
I have expected all of them to get more. Several names have been linked to the saudi pro league like modric or even partey but no confirmation so far but modric seems interested to join in the saudi pro league.
Im waiting for him to go to the saudi pro league as soon as possible. Having Modric in SPL is good.

Luka Modric rejected a lucrative contract from Saudi Arabia that was worth £120 million a season because he felt that he still could play in one of Europe's biggest clubs. He signed a one-year contract extension with Real Madrid because he thought that he would still get more play and contribute to the success of the club. But his prediction was wrong because Jude Bellingham is now the focal point of the club's midfield and attack. It seems now that the Croatian international will only get the opportunity to play when the English young star is not available.
For now, there is no information about him leaving in January because Real's general director Jose Angel Sanchez said that the club has not had any current interaction with any club in the Saudi Pro League regarding Modric's transfer. So basically he might end the current season with Madrid and his future will be determined after his expires. For now, the midfield maestro will be focusing on winning maybe his last trophies in the European league. However, bringing Modric to the Saudi League will be a plus because he would bring a lot of experience to the League.
There's buzz that Luka Modric might head to Saudi Arabia once his contract with Real Madrid wraps up next season. The change in scenarios is due to his lack of playing time. Although he's currently contemplating staying in Europe, the idea of him moving to Saudi Arabia is quite possible. Madrid is heading towards younger players, and it's time for him to pass the torch. With Jude Bellingham rising in Madrid, Modric's game time at the Spanish club has become pretty limited. There's a significant demand for Modric to make the move to Saudi Arabia, especially considering he's achieved everything in Europe. It's hoped that Luka is ready to take on the challenge in Saudi Arabia in 2024.

If Luka Modric wanted to join the Saudi teams to earn more money and they retired there, he could do that even in the last season when he got good offers, but instead of accepting these offers, he rejected the offers and tried to stay in Real Madrid for a longer time.
I think even in this season, Modric won't join the Saudi teams and he will get retired in his team.

There are similarities between the results achieved by Al-Ettifaq and Al-Ittihad in the last 5 matches and both have 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses. But indeed in the standings Al-Ittihad is slightly ahead with a difference of 2 points. This week will be a testament to the two teams which contain great European players and will also provide exciting matches like the clubs in Europe's top leagues.

Ettifaq and ittihad were performing so badly in the last matches. I find it challenging to determine which club has a better probability of winning the game. Al ittihad looks a bit favorite compared with ettiefaq but the result is still remain unpredictable. I would like to pick ittihad in this match but the internal problem in that club is still doubting me at this moment. I will probably pick double chance for this. Three points are really important thing for these clubs. The perennially poor performance of Ettifaq raises doubts, but perhaps this time they will surprise us with a different approach against Ittihad.


Al-Ettifaq will definitely take advantage of home advantage and of course they know that currently Al-Ittihad has started to lose its consistency. However, their new coach, Marcelo Gaardo, will have a big responsibility in his debut with Al-Ittihad.
I think that playing at home doesn't matter a lot in this match. Ittihad is also having strong mentality when it was playing away.

However, bringing Modric to the Saudi League will be a plus because he would bring a lot of experience to the League.
I feel like it is not just about feeling like he still has some talent left to play in Real Madrid, it is 120 million we are talking about. I mean do you really think that Benzema would be fired if he didn't leave? Benzema could have played at Real Madrid for at least 2 more years, maybe more, if he stayed but he was offered 100+ million too and because of that he left, when a player is offered 100+ million a year, for multiple year contracts, the only reason to reject would be not being sure you would be getting paid, and we know they do.

So Modric just doesn't want to play there, that's the only reason, and that's understandable, culturally Saudis are very different from Europe, and that may make some Europeans not want to play there, it is fully understandable situation.

The decision to sign many football veterans from the  European scene I think can never be a long term plan to improve the quality of football in the Saudi League because most of these players barely have few more years to play professional football before retiring from the the beautiful round leather game. But I think the Saudi League is signing these players for another reason and that's to get global audience and popularity. At the moment, I think they've gotten what they really want when it comes to advertising the league to the world because at the moment, almost every part of the world now discusses about the Saudi League thanks the the presence of football superstars in the league.
Now that they've gotten what they want in terms of global recognition, I think it's now high time they start developing young talents in the country in other to remain popular in world football.

Of course, the Saudi clubs are actually trying to get older players into the club so that the overall popularity of the Saudi league actually increases. And they have been very successful in doing so. A few months ago, a lot of people didn't even know that a league like this existed. And now everyone is talking about Al Nassr and some other clubs. They have definitely increased their popularity. And now the next move should be to increase the quality. It is going to take time. But I believe it will happen. And if they actually can get themselves into the European competition, the improvement is actually going to happen pretty quickly.
