Yes market close tomorrow but that doesnt mean new transfers arent gonna happen, if you look closely you can write some players and with only that you can still negotiate with them for a little bit more (i dont remember how much more), for taht we are gonna se in this day so much transfer closing and agreement deals, and some big names being book.

Yeah, most European leagues will be nearing the end of their transfer window between September 1-2 while in the Saudi Pro League it will close on September 20 meaning players with free agent can still move into this league before September 20. It looks like no more of Europe's top players will move as the deadline approaches, is it possible for the moving process to occur in 2 days while having to go through a contract inspection and medical test?

Transferring players near the close of the transfer window sometimes does happen too, so of course they will do it faster, especially to complete medical tests. Because anyway, with them having completed the medical tests then of course, they will also easily and quickly to take care of the contract of course. But yes, if there is a difference in the time for the closing of this transfer window, then it is clear that clubs in the Saudi Pro League do not have much time left to recruit players who play in Europe. But even so, conversations and or negotiations over interest will certainly continue, and of course they can make the transfers in the next transfer window as well.

I learned a funny thing just yesterday: it turns out that the Arab Champions Cup that Al-Nasr recently won is a friendly tournament (since FIFA does not recognize the existence of a football organization of Arab countries), so formally the title and goals scored in this tournament do not go to the "official" offset. It is clear that these are bureaucratic nuances that do not devalue this title in any way, but it was fun to watch the next wave of confrontation between haters and fanboys of Ronaldo on this topic.

I wondered why FIFA did not recognize this organization. Even though Cristiano Ronaldo is not considered an official match, he proved himself with the goals he scored. It continues to prove itself day by day. It's amazing to get such a performance from a 39-year-old actress. It still shows its quality. We are very lucky that he came to world football.

Probably because this is really a "club of interests" (political) and it is unlikely that clubs that are suitable geographically (probably Israel) but not politically suitable can participate there. On the other hand, this is a serious competition of professional clubs. Why is it necessary to follow some delusional FIFA ideas in order for the competition to have official status? In my opinion, this is illogical.

Cristiano Ronaldo's slow start to the Saudi Pro League season isn't the first time we're gonna experience such from the Portuguese superstar but the good thing about it is just like we've seen in his last two games for Al Nassr, he knows how to come back to his best even when he's least expected to come back.
Cristiano is a fifth best scorer in Saudi Professional League 2022 - 2023 with 14 goals for Al Nassr. It's only 7 goals less than the best scorer Hamdallah even Cristiano joined the league in its last second half after World Cup 2022.

Now in this season, he is leading it with 5 goals and I am very sure he will be a best scorer of the league if he won't get injuries and miss too many matches in this season.

With the rate at which Cristiano Ronaldo is scoring goals, he will undoubtedly be the best and highest goal scorer in the Saudi league this season. Ronaldo has only been in the league for two seasons and has already made a significant impact on his club while also winning a title. The squad and management will be tremendously proud of him and will never forget the day they agreed to sign him on. I'm not sure how this season will end for him, but if things continue as they are, he'll win awards and dominate the league as the best player in the competition by the end of the season.
The Saudi league has been able to come so far by the hands of Ronaldo. If they didn't get Ronaldo, they wouldn't have gained so much popularity. After his arrival, other players got a boost there. Currently new players are flocking there. Ronaldo has become a goal scorer this season.

Yesterday Ronaldo scored a great goal against Al-Shabab in 12 munities and we got another goal through him in the 18th minute but unfortunately that goal was disallowed after VAR test but already Ronaldo celebrated the goal after scoring. He seemed a bit annoyed. However, he is sure to shine this season. His goal in every match is a real joy for Ronaldo fans.

I am not sure what they are going to do with Mohammed Al-Rubaie. Yassine Bounou is their first choice goalkeeper, while they also have Ahmad Abu Rasen, Mohammed Al-Owais, Abdullah Al-Mayouf and Habib Al-Wotayan. If they want Bounou as the regular keeper and Rubaie as his injury cover, what they are going to do with all the others?
Al hilal's plan for these players is to have them sit on the bench and collect their salary until their contracts expire.   Cheesy
Due to the fact that Hilal owned a surplus of goalkeepers, many of them will become obsolete.

And as far as I know, the new contract between Rubaie and Al-Ahli was valid until January 2024. They are breaking this contract to bring him to Al Hilal. And why did Al-Ahli agreed to this? If Édouard Mendy gets injured, what they are going to do?
Since ahli and hilal owned by the same owner. I would not be surprised to see that ahli was doing it to send rubale to the hilal. Ahli is still having yami on its line up as a backup for mendy.

Of course they will still target some players as long as they still have the opportunity to do so.
The arrival of famous players makes the name of the league more elevated and there is also another thing that is obtained is that the competition is getting more competitive again. That's definitely one of the interesting things for us, especially for me to see what they (expensive players) can do in this SPL.
I'd like to see them be consistent with this, by which I mean that the movements of the Arab clubs are not just a few moments, but a long-term program that they are doing. I'm already thinking about the players who will be coming to the SPL in the coming season.  Grin
Of course, SPL clubs still have the opportunity to recruit players until 20 September. They can still do it when the European transfer market closes tomorrow, this is what Jurgen Klopp questioned some time ago. Sure enough, we are all curious about how players like Neymar, Fermino, Benzema and other former European players will perform until the end of the season.

Overall I think they can make a significant impact for the club, but so far Al Ittihad and Al Ahli are the two strongest clubs in the SPL this season. Al Nassr is still 6 points behind them and occupies 6th position in the standings.

It seems like they are all about business and not really focused on winning titles because after all, even if they are focused on winning titles too but the reality is. It seems like it will still be difficult because yes, there is Al Ittihad and also Al Hilal who seem to have better dominance than other teams in the Saudi Pro League at the moment. So yes, the transfers they make regarding star players seem to be just business and also, basically they have a lot of money which at least makes them free in making choices.

But if they can secure the title then the business value will be maximized it's no secret that the best teams will get the best offers from sponsors that's the reason why every club wants to be the best. Anyway, no need to argue to guess who the winner of this league because the owner of the 4 clubs is the same company they can choose which club will be the champion, just imagine if you were in that position I mean as an owner what can you do? what we do is just predict, the rest we don't know what they are doing behind the scenes.

This season the competition for the title is getting fiercer after the teams Al Ittihad and Al Ahli also have many top European players coming and currently there are several teams that have fairly balanced strengths so it is very possible that we will see quite fierce competition in the title race.
Al Nassr is quite dependent on Ronaldo's performance, but this season Ronaldo's performance could be better because there are several new players that Al Nassr has brought in to support Ronaldo's performance, such as the presence of Sadio Mane, this is quite suitable to be paired with Ronaldo so that it makes this team's performance even better.
as long as the transfer market is open and there is still time for sure the team from Saudi Arabia will continue to try to get reliable players from Europe to develop performance strengths in the Saudi Arabian team to increase the big name of the SPL to be recognized as part of the big league after Europe and the arrival of the first European players like Ronaldo made other European players believe that there was a big chance in the SPL to continue his career and talent in the long term so that Mane and other European players followed Ronaldo to join several teams in the SPL.
Of course they will still target some players as long as they still have the opportunity to do so.

Quote
Scoring 5 goals in his last two games for the club is a good way to silence his critics and my knowledge about the 5 time Balon D'or winner is that he'll go on to have a good campaign with Al Nassr this season
He has good ability to have two or three goals in a single match if he has a good match and he repeats its regularly. So don't score goals in a few matches is not a big problem for his race in the league best scorer. This habit comes with him along his long career and is one of his best value, a benchmark of 5-Ballon d'Or winner.
What suprises me is that at his age he still strives to be the best or ranked amongst the best so far he's scored up to 17 goals and would try as much as possible to reach the record of the best goal scorer but it's not going to come easy because Mohamed Al-Sahlawi got about 125 goals in his career for Al-Nassr and it would take Ronaldo about 4 to 5 more season to reach such amount of goals due to his age and i don't think he might last in football for the next 5 years that would be a suprise to me if it happens, anyways he's Cristiano Ronaldo a 5time Balloon D'or holders so it's not going to be difficult to hit 50 goal between now and next season.
 If he's able to score at most 2 to 3 goals in every game till the season ends i think he might get close or even get close to about 100 before he decides to retire, he's a player that loves breaking records wherever he goes to and even if he doesn't break the goal record of Mohamed Al-Sahlawi he'll be second or third.

From the start, we already knew that even though there were obvious irregularities before our eyes, everything would be covered by the arrival of European players. The Saudi League only wants its league to be known by the wider public throughout the world and therefore they dare to make large investments so that it can become famous. Regarding the goalkeepers who have been mentioned, maybe it is just like eating a blind salary and is unlikely to have an impact on the team's winning results except for Yassine Bounou who clearly has better quality than the others at Al-Hilal. I agree that the dominance of the Saudi league will still be held by the two teams, but we also cannot forget Al-Nassr, which is slowly starting to catch up to the point difference.

After a slow start he just picks up the numbers and wins some big points for Al Nassr to get back into the title race. For me there is no doubt that he will be the best striker . In two matches he had some amazing results so i expect even more from him in the upcoming matches.
I also no doubt, Ronaldo will definitely be able to become best striker and add more goals in the upcoming matches, at 38 years old he can still play very well. Al Nassr also knows very well how to attract the audience interest, they place Ronaldo as a mainstay striker to become the top scorer in this Saudi Pro League. But unfortunately this season is really tough for Al Nassr to got the title, because Ittihad currently at the top on the points table and that team quite impressive, they have not conceded a single goal so far. Grin
Ronaldo is became an Al Nassr key player since last season that he has starting the league with scores 14 goals from 16 matches so this is really impressive performance if we see from his current age and after spend several matches without scores finally Ronaldo has found his touch again and after entering 3 matches currently Ronaldo is Saudi Pro League top scorer with 5 goals but Ronaldo target to gets Saudi Pro League trophy is quite hard because as defending champion Al Ittihad really showing fantastic performance and in the last 4 matches Al Ittihad have already collect 12 points and cleansheet status so if Al Nassr want to joining the race with Al Ittihad and Al Ahli they should be playing more consistent and they shouldn't be lose again
Cristiano Ronaldo's slow start to the Saudi Pro League season isn't the first time we're gonna experience such from the Portuguese superstar but the good thing about it is just like we've seen in his last two games for Al Nassr, he knows how to come back to his best even when he's least expected to come back.

I checked the transfer mark, yes they have 5 goalkeepers which is quite a lot in my opinion because usually a club will only have 3-4 goalkeepers, and Al Hilal has more players than other clubs such as Ittihad FC and Al Nassr which have around 30-31 players but Al Hilal has 34 players, which is like a waste because there will be many players who will only be on the bench.
It's a lot. Usually in a tournament like World Cup, Euro or Coppa America, teams only have three goalkeepers. In a long season, three goalkeepers are enough as mostly a club will use only one main goalkeeper and if he performs well as well as no injuries, very little chance for a second goalkeeper and almost no chance for a third goalkeeper.

In clubs, usually a third goalkeeper would be very young or old one because as said, they are very last resort of a club for that position and that player is comfortable with very limited chance to play.

Quote
Al Ahli managed to maintain their performance by winning the fourth match, so they along with Ittihad FC were the ones who managed to win the 4 matches, but Ittihad FC was more productive in the number of goals and was the only team that so far had not conceded a goal, a quite impressive performance. Two new players, Al Ahli, Roberto Firmino, and Riyadh Mahrez, have been quite prolific in scoring goals for their club.
These clubs get perfect results so far and they are creating more pressure on Al Nassr. They are racing for Saudi Professional League title and Al Nassr just lost two first matches that make them 6 points away from Ittihad and Ahli on the table.

Al Ahli will be more dangerous when Neymar is ready to play for them. In Al Nassr, they are improving and ready to reduce gaps with top clubs in coming weeks.
The fight for the title will be tight, because Alnassr,Al Ahli and Al-hilal are favorite for the title, Alnassr will win they have everything to make it. Ronaldo and Mane are doing wonders in the league. The partnership is very impressive. I would like to See Ronaldo  lift the title.

It seems Al Hilal is still spending money and they don't want to stop hiring players for huge amounts of money, this time Al Hila hired an Arab player from Al Ahli, and they hired Mohammed Al-Rubaie and now there are many goalkeepers in Al Hilal after hiring this player and Yassine Bounou from Sevilla.
