As far as I know, compensation from FIFA is more of a formality than a really significant amount.
As for Al-Hilal, on the one hand, they have reason to consider themselves deceived, but on the other hand, this is the well-known (in a bad sense) Neymar, the risks were known and understood in advance. It seems to me that many wrote here that this is a strange transfer, and given Neymar’s salary, it is unprofitable. But Al-Hilal decided to take risks and they were unfortunate in that these risks were realized.

I believe Al-Hilal are not going to be very bothered about whole Neymar situation, like you said I believe they already knew the risk behind signing a player like Neymar into their team before they got him, Neymar is an influencer off the pitch so asides from his performance on the pitch they'll still benefit from his influence to the Club, players like Neymar attract the eyes of the media to the team therefore making them more popular, well aleast they'll be compensated by Fifa for the lose of their player due to an injury.

Neymar didn't really create much impact on the pitch for Al-Hilal before he got injured he's not a player they could really depend on to win a match, they still got other good national team players that could replace Neymar till they sign a new replacement and also there striker Mitrovic is still very fit and active currently, however they're be on a great lose paying him a hefty wage bill while he's away from the squad.

What actions do you expect from Al-Hilal? What should they think about? I think in deals of this size/level, all options (including serious injury) should be covered.

Al hilal deserves compensation. Neymar injured during FIFA calender. So, fifa has to taken care of responsibility to pay his salary according to the rules. The injury of neymar has already covered but this is not what al hilal wanted from him.
The club was willing him to play and that's it. Having neymar play the game will also increase the engagement to the his fans as well. This is why losing him due to the injury is a big lose not only for al hilal but SPL too.
Neymar being recruited to increase the popularity of club and league.

The text of the contract is not available to us, so we can only guess what will happen next. Previously, such injuries (especially at that age) automatically meant the end of a career, now medicine has advanced far, but knowing Neymar, I’m not at all sure that we will see him on the field again (at least in adequate shape).

It's according to the rules of FIFA. The compensation was not that big but that's still worthy enough. The problem was not about neymar's career but al hilal feels like being scammed. The club paid a lot and it doesn't get worthy return

Cristiano Ronaldo was a perfect player years ago when he was playing in Real Madrid and he was younger but he is not in a good mood anymore and this Ronaldo we see in the Saudi League is far from what we were hoping to see.

Cristiano Ronaldo have earned his moments and glory in European football, moving to Saudi Pro League was whole lots of new experience for him but he was fast to adapt to the pattern of game. Ronaldo is classified as a robot because he's never tired, rather asking to secure a goal for his team. He is one of the Greatest Player in the modern world of football. He's 38 years old and still very much active and competitive as if he was in his early 20s. Ronaldo is strong enough to deliver at crucial moments in Al Nassr, he has been doing it in Europe so SPL won't be an exception for him.

We can dislike Ronaldo for his behavior, selfishness and emotional instability, but as a player he's great, a real hard worker.
At 38, he is the top scorer in the Saudi League and has already scored 40 points in 37 games! We can say that in every match he has a productive action and this at his age is just great.
In the last match his free-kick was executed like in his best years, with the wall and out of reach of the goalkeeper.

Yes, maybe for some people very ambitious behavior is an unwelcome behavior, but I think his ambition is balanced with what he can do.
He has been a figure who has lasted more than a decade with a very good record, even breaking several records during his career. Manchester United were lucky to have him at a young age, then he went to Madrid to set fantastic records there and then went to Turin. But unfortunately, when he returned to Old Trafford the atmosphere was much different, and he had to go to Arabia. Now he's quite happy here and he'll probably extend his contract soon.

Al hilal is fine without him but the main problem is the money used to sign neymar will be useless caused by he was always being injury. I think that al hilal shall think about neymar. Al hilal will be getting compensation from FIFA regarding injury that happened with neymar but that's not enough caused by neymar has a very big salary. It's a loss for al hilal caused by neymar was a very important player being recruited by paying a lot of money to the PSG. Im very disappoint to hear how neymar was getting ACL injury again.
It's a very bad news to hear yesterday. I thought that if al hilal must be doing something. The international break was destroying neymar's career in SPL. It's caused by he got serious injury that was ruining his career for almost a year starting from this time.

Al Nassr very good results in yesterday match managed to get a win against Damac even though it only ended with a narrow score but fortunately Ronaldo scored 1 score to save the victory for Al Nassr. I also admire Damac even though they are considered a weak team in the SPL but with the strength they have they are able to withstand the attacks of Al Nassr who have stronger strength and Al Nassr should be able to score more than 2 but with Damac Ronaldo defensive ability it is difficult to score more again.

Damac is an average team so this seems like a certainty of victory for Al Nassr but if we look at the statistics it really shows that Damac put up quite a strong resistance to Al Nassr, they managed to take the lead in the first half injury time and the number of attempts they succeeded in was much more than Al Nassr, but because Al Nassr is filled with better players, the two opportunities they had were successfully maximized into goals.
If Ronaldo scores a goal in every Al Nassr match it could be said to be normal because he is the main target for the Al Nassr midfielder to be able to provide excellent passes so that Ronaldo will execute the pass into a goal, that's why even though there is Sadio Mane but Ronaldo will be the focus of the team's attacks when scoring goals made Mane look unproductive, but Talisca and Mane were always players who could be relied on when the team was deadlocked in scoring goals, so both of them had the same number of goals, namely six goals and Ronaldo had more with 11 goals.

Despite his age, Cristiano Ronaldo scored more than 40 goals in 2023. In the match they played against Damac, they won 2-1 with 2 magnificent free kick goals. Talisca scored an unexpectedly great shot from the first free kick. The second free kick goal came from another master, Cristiano Ronaldo. Here, a player from Damac did not jump, the ball went over him and into the net. If you are defending, you should take precautions when taking a free kick.

It is a bit unfair to compare number of goals at different leagues.

The European leagues are way more competitive, and scoring there is way more difficult.

A goal is not the same everywhere basically, for CR7 it is clearly easier now than before.

Agreed, every match he had been playing for Al-Nassr we can understand how good he's playing and the way he had got adapted to the team. Every match we were able to experience the quality and the experience. In the match against Damac, the first goal came for Damac at the additional time of first half. This means during the break it was 1-0. Soon after this two consecutive goals came for Al-Nassr from Talisca and Ronaldo. Some other player means they'll pressure themselves, but his experience makes him stand high and confident even at the last minute of the match.

Falling behind did not mean that Al-Nassr would accept the result easily and they managed to stage a comeback win with a score of 2-1. As hosts, it was natural that Al-Nassr could win, but they had quite a hard time dealing with Damac and had to fall behind by one goal before the end of the first half. Luckily, Al-Nassr often receives violations from opposing players and Al-Nassr's two goals in last night's match all came from free kicks. The two players who brought Al-Nassr to victory were Anderson Talisca and Cristiano Ronaldo. Both of them took beautiful free kicks and brought victory to Al-Nassr.

For Cristiano Ronaldo, he took a free kick that couldn't even make the opposing goalkeeper move an inch and his free kick reminded us of his free kick against Spain several years ago. Cristiano Ronaldo recreated the iconic free kick and the fans cheered as they saw his shot fly towards the goal. This result made Al-Nassr occupy 3rd place in the standings and succeeded in shifting Al-Ahli's position and was only separated by goal difference.

Yes, that's right, Ronaldo created another free kick which was impressive and resulted in a goal and Telisca also had a free kick which was very right on target and I was quite entertained by this match even though my bet lost but I saw Telisca's performance and Ronaldo was very satisfied and this is what I want to see talent kicking a ball that is difficult for the goalkeeper to guess results in a goal.
In fact, several times Ronaldo had the opportunity to score but was still not on target. In fact, the pressure continued to be applied by Ronaldo and Mane, but I admit that Damac FC's defense line is very strong and the goalkeeper is also very good at catching the ball.
Maybe if I counted Ronaldo's total chances if he managed to score at least 4 goals which would almost be a big score but this failure didn't make me disappointed because the satisfaction of Al Nasr's victory and the interesting goal made me feel satisfied.

It seems that what was expected was that Al Nassr would be able to beat Damac even though they were trailing 1 - 0 in the first half in the final minute of added time.
And when the second half started everything turned around where Al Nassr launched an attack and began to dominate the game until he was able to have two shots which actually managed to penetrate the defense of Damac goalkeeper Zeghba.

This is the umpteenth time Ronaldo and Talisca have managed to become players with major contribution to Al Nassr victory.
Even though there are other players that Al Nassr can also rely on such as Mane the ones who show the most enthusiasm for achieving goals are Ronaldo and Talisca.

Now Al Nassr is in third place and in the next match they will face Al Feiha.
If in the next few matches Al Nassr can always win there is big possibility that they will be able to catch up with Al Hilal points which is only 4 points away.

The match was interesting even though Al-Nassr was 1 goal behind in the first half, but in the second half Al-Nassr managed to score 2 goals and were able to win.

Yes, Talisca and Ronaldo were able to form a solid partnership so that they were able to perform amazingly when facing various kinds of matches faced by Al Nassr, so their efforts should be appreciated with this victory.

The Al Nassr vs Al Feiha match will be quite an exciting match because currently Al Feiha is not performing too badly. If Al Nassr ca not win, it could be that Al Feiha will hold a draw because currently Al Feiha has achieved the most draws in these 10 matches so Al Nassr must take advantage of opportunities to get full points from Al Feiha.

Even in the match against Damac last night apart from 1 goal he managed to score via a freekick. Actually, Cristiano Ronaldo also scored several other goals. maybe 2 or 3. But unfortunately everyone was in an offside position.

He's not young anymore. But he did play like a young man who was still in his 20s. He was even active enough to drop back and help out in defense occasionally. It was as if his stamina was endless. Talisca, Mane and Cristiano Ronaldo really provide classy game quality. I even like the freekick produced by Talisca. Cristiano Ronaldo outwits his opponent by pretending he is going to kick. But it turned out Talisca was the one who kicked and scored a goal.

Al-Nassr presents a different game. But Damac was smart enough to set an offside trap. Because if Damac is not good at making Offside traps. Maybe the game will end up being 4-1 or 5-1. But Damac's defenders were paying close attention to Cristiano Ronaldo's movements. So when Cristiano Ronaldo approaches the defense area. Defender Damac compactly stepped forward a little and put Cristiano Ronaldo in an offside position.
Both teams were extraordinary in this match.

Cristiano having a very good run right now, with goals in Portugal and in Alnassr in consecutive games, nice to see him replenish of faith, lets see how much time he can carry this fit.

When i see the alnassr, i cant believe how Lens let go Seko Fofana, he was their key player, and he is a great player.

If Cristiano Ronaldo was asked when the worst period of his career was, he would probably answer without a second thought that the worst period of his career was probably when he joined Manchester United. Manchester United did not give him a place in the starting XI, his performances suffered for a few days which saw him left out of the regular XI and placed on the side bench. Manchester United kept him on the side bench and that effect carried over into his World Cup matches. We have seen the manager put him on the bench in the last few matches of the World Cup tournament. True friends are those who stand by bad times. Cristiano Ronaldo joined Al Nasser club at a bad time in his career and the club supported him during his bad career due to which he quickly came back to his original form.

Cristiano Ronaldo contributed quite a bit to the mess that was going on at Manchester United after he joined them. I don't understand a lot of things about ten Hag, but in this case I understand that he didn't want to crown Ronaldo king from day one when he also had all these young players who were trying to find their own place and who were ready to fight for their position and take on the challenge. If someone gets a free ticket to the starting XI, it can cause problems in the team cohesion. But Ronaldo got his chances to start games and he didn't use them.

Al-Nassr supporting him is nothing spectacular. What did you think they would do after finalizing the most impressive transfer financially of all times? It's a difference to play in the Premier League or in the Saudi Professional League and Ronaldo knows that as well.

Cristiano Ronaldo may not have accepted ten Hag's contract with Manchester United in the second phase, he may have wanted a young player instead of Ronaldo, but the management signed Cristiano Ronaldo, so maybe the manager did not give much priority to Ronaldo in the team. I know there is a lot of difference between the English Premier League and the Saudi Pro League but a player plays well when he is mentally happy. Cristiano Ronaldo was never mentally happy at Manchester United which is why we have noticed a bad effect on his performance but he is very happy mentally when he came to Saudi Arabia which is why he is performing so well for Al Nasser.

Some other player means they'll pressure themselves, but his experience makes him stand high and confident even at the last minute of the match.

Benzama scored one of his usual goals with a header. He scored his goal in the 22nd minute, it was clear from the previous events that he would score this goal. Then, Al Taawoun scored from a corner kick and the same header, and the goals were scored one after the other. There were many more goals that Karim Benzama could have scored, but he could not score the other goal.

Clearly, a bad result for both teams on the way to the championship is not a score that will please anyone. I guess it was a strange match as Karim Benzama played for both teams today, I don't understand Cheesy

This Karim Benzema we see in the Saudi League is not like the Benzama in Real Madrid and he is not even near to it. Benzama is getting old and he can't have good performance anymore. otherwise, a player like Benzema is a team like Al Ittihad to win the Saudi League title while there is currently a six-point gap between them and first place of the league.

Karim Benzema's bad performance could be attributed to being under pressure or not having much work to do because he is not playing in a competitive league like the European Leagues. Another explanation might be because he is ageing and can't perform much better than what he is doing now; if he tries to do more, he might end up placing himself in a more difficult situation, which could impact his career in the Saudi League if he has a long injury that isn't necessary for his career now.

If he's underperforming now, I believe he'll improve after a while except he can't do more and his physical strength has worn out. Regardless of his current state, he’s still much needed in most of their matches because his presence in the field still add value to the club when they’re playing against other clubs.

Cristiano Ronaldo was a perfect player years ago when he was playing in Real Madrid and he was younger but he is not in a good mood anymore and this Ronaldo we see in the Saudi League is far from what we were hoping to see.

Cristiano Ronaldo have earned his moments and glory in European football, moving to Saudi Pro League was whole lots of new experience for him but he was fast to adapt to the pattern of game. Ronaldo is classified as a robot because he's never tired, rather asking to secure a goal for his team. He is one of the Greatest Player in the modern world of football. He's 38 years old and still very much active and competitive as if he was in his early 20s. Ronaldo is strong enough to deliver at crucial moments in Al Nassr, he has been doing it in Europe so SPL won't be an exception for him.
