In fact, when he played at Bayern it didn't feel like he couldn't adapt to the team, I personally felt like he just didn't want to play in that team, like it wasn't his championship. At least it seemed that way from the outside. It's a different situation here, a brand new league, they pay big money, a lot of attention has been thrown at this emerging league, he could easily get noticed, unlike the situation in Germany.

We just cannot expect every player to stay in top level competition with low income when they are being offered big salary in Saudi league. They are professional players. And money is going to have a big say in everything they do. I actually like the fact that the players are currently thinking about money.

Not all the players are Messi or Ronaldo who will be able to earn as much money as they want wherever they go.

Not all the players are Messi or Ronaldo who will be able to earn as much money as they want wherever they go. For a normal player, it is going to make more sense to go to a league that is going to be him in a lot instead of staying at the top of the competition. The Saudi league has realised that and also acting accordingly. In two years, my prediction is that the Saudi league is going to be twice as big as it is now. But that does also mean they will have to keep giving the players huge amount of money.

It seems that big money has really changed the ambitions and big dreams of young players which basically playing in Europe, because previously they had ambitions to be able to play in the Champions League but it seems that this is no longer their target. Because of the current trend, it seems when they receive offers with big payouts they can also feel successful in their careers. Because after all, the fact is that Saint-Maximin is also just 26 years old and also basically Newcastle next season will play in the Champions League. But the interesting thing is, Saint-Maximin prefers to leave Newcastle and chooses to play in the Saudi Pro League for big money.

I had no doubt about Sadio Mane's ability to adapt to the the playing style in the Saudi League and that's because of the kind of how energetic and tactical he is as a player.
Many people had a contrary thought about the Senegalese star just because he didn't have a good season at Bayern Munich in his first year with the club. Sadio Mane's addition will ease the pressure on Cristiano Ronaldo and the club and that's why I think they'll be a big contender for the league title next season

In terms of quality, Saido Mane really doesn't need to be doubted, referring to his performance at Bayern Munchen, I don't think he is suitable for now. It is clear that the Bundesliga and EPL are the two best leagues in Europe, while the SPL is not up to that level for now. Of course, this fact made it easy for Mane to adapt to the SPL, thanks to his experience playing in Europe best leagues.

Al Nassr, Al Ettifaq, Al Hilal and Al Shahab are the favorite SPL clubs to win the championship trophy next season, and Mane can help Cristiano to bring Al Nassr to dominate the standings.

Al Nassr owns Ronaldo, the world's top star in the squad, which is the most significant difference between them and rival Al Hilal. But Al Hilal often won favorable results when clashing with Al Nassr. In the last 4 confrontations, the King Fahd Stadium team won 2, drew 1, and lost only 1 match. In general, it can be seen that Al Hilal vs. Al Nassr is considered to be quite balanced. If the two teams meet in the final, this is probably a match worth watching.
Recently, Ronaldo consecutively scored for Al Nassr, and He continued the race of top scorer with 3 goals, equal to his former teammate Karim Benzema. However, Benzema could not progress as Al Ittihad was eliminated in the quarterfinals. In contrast, the 38-year-old striker still has the opportunity to score more goals, and I believe Ronaldo will be the top scorer.

After the transfer of Saint-Maximin from Newcastle to Al-Ahli, Fabinho from Liverpool to Al-Ittihad and Sadio Mane from Bayern Munich to Al-Nassr, there isn't a big signing that occurred in Saudi Pro League.
There is Ibañez who play in Roma as a defender, is rumoured to move to Al-Ahli soon. There is also rumours about Franck Kessié from Barcelona and Mario Hermoso from Atletico Madrid who are linked to Al-Ahli too. I don't know about the other teams if they are wiling to recruit additional players or not.

Yes yes yes yes you are right about this, when it comes to Cristiano Ronaldo anything becomes big, yes maybe it is because of his big name that in the end every time he does will be the center of attention. Just like what happened with his move, when Critiano Ronaldo decided to go to Arabia many said it was the end of his career and a career decline. But I didn't hear that much when Messi went to Miami, in fact, if we judge objectively then it can be said that both of them were at the end of their careers when they left Europe and also certainly it was a career decline.

Only five clubs can sign ex-European players at the moment I think, Al Nassr, Al Ahli, Al Hilal, Al Ettifaq and Al Ittihad. It is possible that their funds are not enough to recruit them, because they are not directly supported by the Public Investment Fund (PIF). It is possible that in the future other clubs in the SPL will make gradual moves in the transfer market, to balance the domination of the five clubs above.

So many players are still associated with the SPL until now, because the new transfer market will close on 1 September. Many possible surprises will happen, they can do it with a fantastic offer.

sadio mane still hasn't managed to score a goal since he arrived at Al Nassr and from what I see the whole team is focusing too much on ronaldo instead of also making the other players manage to score goals, one cannot simply forget that sadio mane is a striker and his job is to score goals, it's not just giving assistance to ronaldo, if Anderson Talisca is moved to play on the right side then both Anderson Talisca and saudi mane became attackers who won't score goals and focused on assisting for ronaldo to score a goal, with that all attention will be turned to ronaldo, although the team will win games if that works, the problem is that the healthy mane will not be scoring a goal

and that will not be good for his career so much that when he goes to play in the national team of senegal he will not be able to help the national team of senegal to win games... it is true that he is having a high salary, but still I am wondering how is his individual career, in the news channels I have seen when Al Nassr wins a game and other players score a goal, the news channels ignore the goals scored by other Al Nassr players and just mention that Al Nassr won and ronaldo scored a goal. I have noticed this for some time, for example Anderson Talisca is a player who has already saved Al Nassr several times, the numbers speak for themselves. with 23 games, Anderson Talisca scored 20 goals only last season

but strangely that Anderson Talisca has a low salary when compared to many players that were recently signed, I hope that these Arabs are aware of this type of thing and do not forget the players that contribute most to the team winning games, I am asking how are the salaries of national players and what are the treatments given to the teams, because this race for foreign players is reaching a frightening speed, I say that because of the proposal they had made for mbappe to go play in the saudi league

In the end, Al-Nassr won 3-1 and they have an easy semi-final ahead of Al-Shorta. Al-Hilal, apparently, in turn, will easily defeat the winner of the Al-Shabab and Al-Wahda pair (damn what names I can break my tongue or fingers) and in the final we will see a confrontation between two Saudi teams.
By the way, Ronaldo scores the third match in a row
