There are some problems with the Saudi Arabian club's policy of charging European players quite high prices. One of them is Lukaku, I found news that Lukaku is currently having difficulty getting a new club. Although some problems also started with him, Chelsea are struggling to sell him at the moment. Reportedly there was a sizeable value agreement from the Saudi Arabian League, but indeed Lukaku refused because he wanted to play in Europe. But as a result, Chelsea are currently struggling to sell him or go on loan. This is because Lukaku is not in the Chelsea coach's plans.
I think Lukaku still has arrogance after causing problems for himself so currently he is confused about wanting to go to any club which in reality has no interest in recruiting him, even several European clubs are currently not eyeing this player and for me when Lukaku rejected the offer from the club Arab has become a mistake that he should accept for a few seasons if things improve and a European club wants him to buy him he can accept the offer again.
I don't know what Lukaku is thinking at the moment, although I know that players who are not yet old still have big ambitions to compete in Europe, but at least he also has to see how the Saudi Arabian competition has now had big changes after many reliable players moved to Arab clubs like Ronaldo but it seems like Lukaku is a football player who is difficult to control and arrogant in his own stance which will lead him astray.
I think next season the Saudi Arabian club will not make any more offers.

Actually, there is no harm in trying to join a Saudi Arabian club because the Arab league is currently experiencing an increase in popularity so that in the long term this Arab league will become a big league.[/left]

It depends on the player's perspective sometimes they think that if they choose to move to the Saudi League then their career will be over, Oscar is one of the players who experienced this, when he decided to move to the Chinese League in 2017 then no European clubs were interested in him, even though we knew in 2017 that Oscar's career was very impressive and one of the most expensive young players unfortunately his career was trapped in the Chinese league, maybe this is what Lukaku and other players think.

All leagues use the power of money to bring in players so there is no reason to exclude the Saudi League it's just that the Saudi League is a little late in using the power of money, not only Saudi even the American League also uses the same method. Now young players and old players have their own place to compete imagine if there was no Saudi League maybe we wouldn't see Ronaldo and Benzema playing again.
We can't blame the Saudi League because they are buying various players from Europe for money. There is nothing wrong with the fact that the clubs that are in the Saudi League have the financial power to use that financial power to bring players from Europe to Saudi Arabia. When Manchester United began to ignore Cristiano Ronaldo, no other club in Europe expressed interest in signing Ronaldo. When no team in Europe showed interest in taking Ronaldo, if Ronaldo had not received an offer from Saudi Arabia, his football career might have ended there, but because of Saudi Arabia, we still see Cristiano Ronaldo on the field. Now maybe most of the stars come to Saudi Arabia at the end of their career but after a few seasons it will be seen that many young footballers will come to Saudi Arabia to build their career.

Well, if we're talking about the league in Europe, it's somehow safe to say that clubs that has money is indeed not interested in acquiring Ronaldo anymore but for the smaller clubs, they want him as it's hard to think that they are not, it's just that they cannot afford Ronaldo that is why they are just silent about it. Furthermore, there are also some clubs in US soil that are keen to have him. Let's say if he wasn't called out by Al-Nassr, he would be playing in US, just like Messi because there, their talents are still worth it.

It seems you missed some important news Chelsea really wants to let Lukaku go but no club wants to buy him permanently except the Saudi League but Lukaku is not yet interested in moving to this league because he thinks he can still compete in Europa League. Now Lukaku has found a new club, he has been loaned to Roma and there is no point in linking Lukaku with the Saudi League except in the coming season, If Lukaku fails to contribute to Roma then Lukaku will have to think again about the offer from the Saudi League.
It's too early to speculate about where Romelu Lukaku will be in the next season but it doesn't matter if we talk about it early because this is a hot topic of discussion at the moment and I'm a little sure that in the next season it won't be between Inter, Juventus or other clubs in europe giving a big offer to Lukaku, I think this player will be forced to accept the offer from the Saudi Arabian club and try to appear with other European players who have been here earlier.

At some point in the EPL most Club spent huge money on signing players and offer them huge wage bills to move over to their team and therefore the Saudi League shouldn't be left out because they're trying to do all they can to develop their league and make more popular than it used to be and i think they're created a chance for older players that still got football at heart to continue playing till they're due for retirement.
 So far the league is becoming more interesting every week and I they hadn't use their finance to establish themselves maybe not everyone would heard of Al-Ittihad, Al Taawoun,  Al-Nassr or even know about the team but the presence of this top players have created awareness to people all over the world, especially the arrival of players like CR7 and Benzema, especially Cristiano Ronaldo that's got alot of fans on his social media handles.

It is really well said that the players are not able to match themselves in European football or are failing to perform as before. For those players should go to places like Saudi league or MLS they will get good money and football career will be somewhat better.

That's really wrong. Did you think that if european leagus were just premier league, serie a, bundesliga and la liga. There are so many great leagues in european continent.
SPL would always become the last choice for european player to continue his career. Sometimes, money talk much for players which are aiming to get a high salary. The young players will always be prioritizing to compete in the european league rather than SPL. Even though someone like gabri veiga has become an exception.

Looking at Lukaku career, it seems that it is difficult for him to become a club legend, he never stayed with one club for long. I also doubt that AS Roma will make Lukaku status permanent after his loan period is over, especially if Lukaku cannot be a solution for Jose Mourinho attack line this season. Chelsea, as the main owner was previously reluctant to let Lukaku go on loan, but I think Mourinho closeness to Chelsea management was the main factor in his transfer being realized.

It really makes sense if Lukaku moves to the SPL next season, to be precise after Euro 2024. I think it's not just Lukaku who has the potential to follow in Ronaldo footsteps, there will be many European players who will continue their careers in the SPL.

Presently, there’s only one factor that makes Saudi clubs being, in a way superior and that’s in the case of funding. With their extremely deep pockets, they could try and entice any player they want into coming over to play. The issue of funding is a very important factor but that alone cannot even begin to make it superior.

Don't be jealous.
It doesn't seem to be a matter of jealousy but because the Saudi team has a large budget and is able to buy and provide large salaries for top European players it can make it difficult for European teams to recruit players in each transfer season because many players are starting to be more interested in joining the Saudi team.
It is not surprising that several European coaches have submitted suggestions to FIFA to regulate player transfers because it can also be seen that the development of player transfers for the Saudi League is superior compared to the European League.

Quote
If the players want to move from UEFA leagues to Saudi Professional League, then they have solid reasons to do so. I agree that money is definitely one of the considerations. Obviously in the recent past, UEFA clubs used their deep pockets to steal American, African and Asian players. Now Saudi Arabia is giving them a taste of their own medicine. Overall, quality of football in UEFA confederation is on the decline (would make an exception for France and England). And once the star players depart from their leagues, the quality will go down even further. 
The only main reason is that the money factor is large even far above the ability of European teams to provide player salaries but on the other hand the Saudi League is easier to get the championship trophy and is different from the European League which clearly competes strictly.
For example Ronaldo managed to win the title in just one season.

At one time the Saudi football leagues were not that advanced but now when a player like Ronaldo is included in the Saudi league, the popularity of the league is increasing day by day.  Going to its league, but now you see that many expensive expensive players in Europe are attracted to the Saudi League. When Neymar joined the Saudi league, the popularity of the Saudi leagues started to increase. The way Saudi football is working, maybe it will not be far away to the level of the European league.

Ronaldo has been known as a footballer with the biggest fanbase. I would not be surprised if he was able changing everything in the league. There have been so many great players with a lot of fans were also coming to the league like neymar.
There will be more big names to join in the saudi pro league next transfer season. I expect that if the rapid growth from saudi pro league can't be anticipated.
There have been various protests were coming from the european coaches like pep and jurgen klopp but i think this is a big progress being made by saudi pro league. It has beens tarted with benzema which has been deciding to join in al ittihad then kante was following him.
I think that slowly but surely SPL will be one of league that was dominating the asian. This league is growing a lot. It's even bigger compared with chinese league.
Even before the transfer market closed, M. Salah's name was reportedly also approached by an Arab League club. But Liverpool still retains him and M. Salah still has a long contract at Liverpool. In essence, I feel confident that in the next transfer market there will be more and more top European players who will be interested in joining the Arab League again. Because the popularity of the Arab League since CR7's presence last season has increased rapidly. In fact, this season we already have more star players as you mentioned. Even in Al-Nassr itself there are two European football superstars, namely Sadio Mane and CR7. In the past, I rarely watched matches in the SPL. But now I don't want to miss it like I watch other leagues in Europe. And making predictions in the Arab League was actually quite easy last season. But now that many European players have entered. I think predicting match results in the SPL has really become difficult. This is the same as in European leagues.

Manchester City's defensive midfielder, Rodri, is now also commenting on transfers taking place in the Saudi League. He said this talent drain must be controlled in a certain way and what Rodri said was true. However, I don't think there is anything that can prevent it as long as both parties agree to agree on the transfer. He also added that it was a shame that so many young players were leaving for the Saudi league and he hoped for any party to quickly control this situation. In my opinion, if veterans join a Saudi league team, that's not a problem, but sometimes it's quite a shame if young talents leave just to make money rather than with the mentality of winning titles in Europe. Could there be a solution to limit young players going to the Saudi league? If so from you, what is the right solution for this?

We have seen some notable transfers from the Saudi League this season. Various clubs in the Saudi League have signed contracts with players like Neymar, Karim Benzema, Yassine Bounou, Sadio Mané, Roberto Firmino, Fabinho this season.  After successfully making these transfers this season, various clubs in Saudi Arabia offered big European stars for some more transfers, but they did not succeed in bringing those players to Saudi Arabia. They have managed to make a significant amount of transfers this season, I think the Saudi League will be able to make more successful deals from this transfer season when the transfer window opens next season.

Ronaldo had to make the most difficult choice, after which we see more players wanting to repeat this, and I think that in subsequent transfer windows there will be more and more of them. As a result, this can make the Saudi League much more interesting and more competitive. Also, when the players’ interest in this championship increases, the players’ fees will also decrease to more usual amounts.

It might be true. Saudi club was just running this big project the country has been controlling by a new king. The new king was just seeing football as one of the important thing that can help the country to attract more investors to come. I would not be surprised to see that the country will try to pour more money to lure great players to join in the club. American league was not as crazy as saudi. It's only happening with intermiami but you can try to take a look at the overall team.
Saudi is far crazy than MLS club. You might be only familiar with messi, alaba or busquets but you would be very familiar with a lot of european players that played in saudi pro league.

Currently it's the league dominating Asia because the Chinese league have declined drastically and is nothing to talk about whereas as lot top players have moved over to the SPL and made it more interesting to watch, because the fans of top players like Ronaldo, Benzema and Neymar have switched over to viewing matches concerning the league and we all know how large Ronaldo's fan base is, I think he's the footballer with one  of the largest and that's impacted the popularity of the Saudi Pro League.
 Also,according to the news, Al-Nassr head coach Luis Castro has hailed the arrival of this new top players into the league claiming that it's improved the domestic players because they're now trying to match these top players, also the director of the Saudi Pro League has credited Cristiano Ronaldo as well as other top players for the impact they've created on the league so far especially Ronaldo who's motivated many top players to switch over to the league and made it interesting.

That's the point. Ronaldo might have retired from active football by now, if there was no offer from Al Nassr. He was not very happy at Manchester United. And it is not an isolated incidents. European clubs have recently built up a reputation for mistreating their players. Remember what happened to Messi after he visited Saudi Arabia? Paris Saint-Germain management went mad and they asked him to apologize publicly. Is this the way to treat your best player? And despite the apology he was suspended for two weeks by PSG.

Jealous of what exactly? The deep pockets of the Saudis? That’s ridiculous

I’m not losing any sleep over players moving over to the Saudi league for whatever reasons as their decision doesn’t affect me. Also, I’m aware that money, being a strong deciding factor in the decision making of some players has always been used to attract players. It’s nothing new. The Chinese at some point, also had players from Europe come over to play for their super league until it didn’t seem to be profitable for them anymore.

Star players who are also starting to see the end of their careers and leaving for the Saudi league won’t affect the quality of European football. With the exit of these star players, younger players with amazing talents are also entering the scene.
