The 24-year-old Portuguese attacker is not having a good time in the Saudi Pro League. He has been enable to feature in the League games because of rules that limit more than eight foreign players from playing in the domestic league. He had just managed to play just three games in the last two months in AFC Champions League. Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou knew the ability of the young player when he was the manager of the Scottish side Celtic where the striker scored 28 goals and gave 26 assists. I doubt if Tottenham Hotspur will be able to get this loan deal because Al Ittihad has the financial resources and the player is an important part of the team. The English side is doing everything possible to revitalize the team after its performance depreciated due to injury woes.


After the exploits of the Saudi Pro League in the last transfer market I no longer doubt the capacity of the clubs. With money and other incentives, any player can be attracted to the League. Lukaku might not come to Saudi but Salah might consider coming maybe because of other reasons. Europe might be a prestigious league but we have seen how top players left the league and moved to SPL. Players like Modric have won almost everything both as a team and as an individual. If he has no good offer in Europe, I think he might consider moving to the Saudi Arabia league to make more money before retirement.

In simple terms, if Al Hilal really needs Neymar, its not just his popularity, its impossible for Al Hilal to just keep quiet after seeing Neymar suffer a long term injury and if Al Hilal wants contributions from star players, he certainly won't care about Neymar and demands to terminate the contract, but look at the facts, Al Hilal does not mind this and one side without Neymar Al Hilal is strong enough and all Al Hilal wants is popularity to help increase the big name of the SPL and when it comes to money I am sure Al Hilal does not have a problem with that amount.

I am not sure that these 4 quality players from europe will accept an offer from any saudi arabian team as has happened before, such as Lukaku who has rejected the offer and Salah has also rejected an offer from an arab team and this is all because the league in europe still looks better. even though the SPL is almost the biggest league, the league in europe is still a prestigious career for quality players, so it won't be that easy to get quality players from europe.

I don't know if Al Ittihad is going to agree to a loan request. Because they need the player. And they also have enough money to buy players that they want. I think that giving away the player on a loan is not in the best interest for them.  But on the other hand, Tottenham will definitely improve and also get benefit from the player if they can actually get him online. And I also agree that they are not trying to buy him.  So it is not any kind of loss for them. But the bigger question is, are they going to be able to get him?

They are trying to get him on a loan, and not trying to purchase him. So it is different. Ivan Perisic and Manor Solomon are currently injured and therefore Tottenham Hotspur is on backfoot now. They want Jota in their squad until Perisic and Solomon becomes ready to play again. I am not sure how Al Ittihad will react to this request. Anyway Jota is not part of the regular squad and he has so far played only 5 matches for Al Ittihad in the Saudi Professional League (played a few more matches in some of the other tournaments such as the Arab Club Champions Cup).

We heard before about the Saudi teams hiring top players from Europe but now for the first time, it seems Tottenham is getting interested in hiring Jota from Al Ittehad.
This Portuguese played jonied Al Ittehad in the summer for 25 million pounds and he played in eight games for this team and now Tottenham wants to get Jota for a loan.

If Neymar doesn't contribute to the team, what Al Hilal expects from him? I think Al Hilal spends too much money if they only want to increase their popularity and increase the sales of merchandise by having Neymar in their squad. Neymar often gets injured for a long time, he is egoistic, and he sometimes makes problems. Al Hilal deserves to get another star players. If they only want an old or experienced players, they can try to negotiate with Muller, Salah, Modric, or Lukaku. These players should be more useful than Neymar.

Yes, there will be a big match between Al Hilal and Al Nassr. It will be in Al Hilal home. So, Al Hilal has the advantage and has a higher chance to win the match. But they can't underestimate Al Nassr because Al Nassr showed great performance lately. Moreover, their star players are very productive in the last few matches.

Al Nassr and Al Hilal squad comprises of European players that can be able to deliver in league matches, good news for both sides. Eversince signing Ronaldo, they become more hunger to sign more european players. Ronaldo will deliver in all instance, that's why we called him the GOAT of our present time in football. Cristiano Ronaldo made the best choice when he exited Old Trafford and move to Saudi Arabia football, the team that signed him have been fortunate enough since then and they're currently preeminent rival against Al Hilal for the SPL title this season.

The Saudi Arabian league is now very well known and of course we are familiar with the names of SPL clubs such as Al-Hilal Al-Nassr Al Ahli and others, I think
Cristiano Ronaldo has made good decisions so far because he is no longer young In my opinion, joining the SPL is the best way and of course Cristiano Ronaldo is very great at taking advantage of this opportunity because he gets a good salary and I think if he doesn't take it, it would be a shame.

and Cristiano Ronaldo's performance has not faded to this day and the Saudi Arabian club's decision is very good in looking for talented players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Aleksandar Mitrovic, K. Koulibaly and others.
Ronaldo was of course so great at pioneering that in the end many people followed in his footsteps and joined the SPL. I remember when Cristiano Ronaldo first joined.

Ittihad has been out of form since start of season and that’s quite worrisome especially as they’re the league’s defending champions. Now they play Khaleej and Benzema is back on pitch of play and the comtroversial coach is out, I think Ittihad will bounce back after they got winning ways with this match to kick start their winning streak.

 Khaleej are not pretty good and that’s going to be a win in the bag for Ittihad and I think after winning this match, they’ll take some cues from this match and apply in subsequent matches so as to get  the team back in the mouth of the fans, they played very impressively to get a very good scoreline and that's going to help boost their confidence level, thank goodness Benzema who's not really in a good form managed to score a penalty goal in that match, it would help build his confidence as well.

The only thing I regret about this competition is that we had difficulty finding the latest information regarding the two teams. as for information or reporting on this League, it is presented in local languages. and that, will make us difficult. there is no choice, but we measure it from the available odds plus the team's performance. or, when this match starts to be held. thus, we have a clearer picture. It's just that, sometimes the odds change quickly.

But okay, let's discuss the battle between these two teams. In fact, I have reviewed both teams, whether Al Hilal or Al Nassr.
For the current position, Al Hilal is at an advantage with their advantage based on points. thus, technically, Al Nassr will be more insistent on reducing the point difference. which means, Ronaldo and his colleagues will go all out to achieve victory.

Meanwhile, Al Hilal, apart from being the home team, can play more casually to lure the Al Nassr players out. after getting an opening, they will counterattack quickly and deadly. but this is only part of my scenario, although there are many other scenarios. but what is certain is that we will find out before this fight takes place.
If we refer to the H2H meeting between these two teams, Al Hilal slightly dominated the victory. but now, Al Nassr is filled with competitive players. Likewise with Al Hilal, although not as famous as Ronaldo. Straight away, my estimate is that this match will be won by the home team. Even though the match is going, it looks like it will be quite tough.

Cristiano Ronaldo has made a great impact in the League because when he move to Al Nassr, many people tends to start given the league attention, and as a result of that, the league became popular and many players from Europe top teams joined some of the teams  and as a result of that, the league become popular and it is consider as a top league in the world right now.

Saudi Pro League is competitive and we have strong hopes that these SPL clubs will start playing against European clubs in less than no time. After all they have gain the necessary popularity in the world of football and its now time to grow the league to become one of the stable and most viewed league. Cristiano Ronaldo was and will be the greatest player in the history of football. He's enchanced with incredible qualities and he's worth every hype he's currently getting from football. Saudi Arabia provided a path for the undisputed GOAT to come over and he accepted after crashing out with Manchester United headcoach, Erik Ten Hag.

Well, this is the match we are looking forward to and finally, 2 top Saudi Pro League clubs will fight each other and prove who is the strongest. To be honest, I don't expect both teams play draw I want to see one of them winning, especially Al-Nassr so that the competition is more fierce with only one point adrift. If we check based on the gambling market Al-Hilal is more favored yeah it's normal because they play at home and at the top of the standings but Ronaldo and his team will not let it be easy and they have the ability to do it. Who do you think will win, or do you agree with what the bookies offer? the following is a screenshot to place a bet.



Or if you doubt it to bet on the market 1x2 then there are still other options such as both teams YES but the odds are lower because the chances of winning are higher the odds are only 1.43 not bad, I will go with this bet. By the way, Al-Ahli won today by scoring 6 goals and Al-Ittihad also played today they scored first in the first half but still 1 goal is not safe because I saw Al-Khaleej also playing aggressive, let's look forward to how this battle ends.

Sometimes, it is good to move on when you are not needed. Ten Hag was clearly against him and that is why he decided to leave, and his intention to go to Saudi Pro League is a good move because he have another dimension of football apart from all the time he spent in Europe.
His move to Saudi Pro league has improved the League audience and fans and also give other players confidence to move to the League without any tension.

Have many bad issues with Lionel Messi achievement trophies from winning World Cup 2022 until last individual trophy after becoming the winner of Ballon D'Or 2023. I think never have end words when debating about which one the best between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, both of them are the best players in the world and keep dominance until their age have been over exactly with Cristiano Ronaldo have been 38 years old but still consistent score many goals on every match.

Both of them Ronaldo and Messi keep hard work although they are not with top european teams but still have magic when both of them playing for their club, I am little agree with Lionel Messi move to MLS League are not compete than Saudi Pro League exactly with Lionel Messi failure make his team qualify to playoff round and make him absent for longer time until new season begin on February next year.

Benzema has always been an amazing "finisher" but for him to finish you need to bring the ball to him at that position, don't get me wrong he is amazing and probably one of the best at what he does, dude won ballon or by doing it, and that's an important situation, however that doesn't mean that we are talking about someone who can get the ball, dribble to the post and score, that's not what he does.

You pass him the ball anywhere around the lines, and he shoots it to score, but if you can't get him the ball then it is not going to end up working for him or you. The team was built with just some fame in mind, not tactics, they could have done better and yet they decided not to, which is an issue and they should be considering the situation a little bit risker at the moment, I think it would make more sense if they could end up with a better result during the winter break, they need to get some players that could make this team a lot better than how it is right now.

I believe, Ronaldo decision to leave Manchester United is the right choice, and I think this is not about how Manchester United perform after Ronaldo departure. Because anyway, even last season Manchester United without Ronaldo but Manchester United managed to finish in the top 4 although indeed, this season Manchester United experienced bad results again but Manchester United bad results this season were not because of the loss of Ronaldo. But ya, at least Ronaldo can still play well at Al Nassr and I think it is also certainly a good result for Ronaldo as well as the Portuguese national team. Therefore, I think at this moment it is no longer appropriate if we still associate Manchester United and Ronaldo, because it has passed.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a living experience that proves that hard work leads to success. He always says that he works hard. Messi is enough to prove to us how talent can be born in the human body. I admire Ronaldo because he has incredible ambition to push himself to this level. If there is anyone to take as an example, I think it should be Ronaldo. Because it is not in our power to be born like Messi.

But the reality is that we are talking about an impressive talent no matter how hard he trained. Because reading some of the posts of how he was not born like Messi and had to work for everything, it implies that everyone working as hard could become like Ronaldo (which I highly doubt) and second of all it also implies that Messi didn't work as hard. But to be honest how do even know how hard Messi worked? He is just not the kind of guy who posts his training routines all over Instagram. I couldn't tell for sure whether Messi worked less hard than Ronaldo. Maybe they worked on different things.

That Ronaldo stands out in the SPL after he played for all those clubs is really no surprise. I doubt that anyone thought the opposite could happen and he would be sitting on the bench because he becomes so bad.

I believe it's the fruit of his hard work that has allowed him to survive until now. I've even read in some news sources that he always spends time training when his teammates have finished or in other words he adds to his own training portion, something we rarely find.
I've even seen on social media, that Ronaldo is a player who was born not because of talent like Messi for example, but he managed to make himself at a very high level as a soccer player.
Indeed, effort does not betray results.
