Topic: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 - page 656. (Read 118759 times)

Today is the 1st week for Gerrard as coach of Saudi Arabian Club Al-Ettifaq, Steven Gerrard has started targeting players to fill his squad. The first Gerrard target is Henderson. The player who currently still has 2 seasons remaining on his contract with Liverpool, so far there is still no news on how much the transfer fee will be proposed by Gerrard, but if this is successful, the Arab League will increasingly be filled with players from the top European leagues, after previously Kante who had joined with Al-Ittihad. Ronaldo makes Arab as the new home for old players from Europe Grin

The arrival of Steven Gerrard has made the Saudi Arabian league even more popular, especially if Steven Gerrard can successfully bring in Henderson, of course the Arab League will be filled with top European players. I believe the Arab League has a special goal of bringing in top European players with big salaries.

It is good that these players are moving to the Saudi professional league but many other players in the league already, talking about the local players in the league will not be completely happy because they will have less opportunity to play and lesser attention on them, they will have little opportunity to be scouted by another club for a possible move to another league because of little playing time as the new players that these clubs are bringing from other leagues will get the most attention and will be giving more opportunity to play since they were gotten for a big price.

I saw this coming that Saudi Arabia wants SPL to be as competitive as other leagues and they also want to get all the attention that is needed worldwide. Many European players will be moving into Saudi since Gerrard is now a coach in Saudi. As for the local players they need to seat up and challenge themselves by improving in their performance for them to be able to fit in a with this superstars coming from various leagues. I see this as a big improvement in SPL,I still look forward in the next three years to see Saudi Arabia clubs buying almost all the best players because they have what it takes to be successful with this plan.

Steven Gerrard joined the club in Saudi Arabia like every one else these days and signed a contract with Ettifaq. Things will not be easy for him there.

Gerrard was always having hard days in EPL. He never had great achievement in EPL. Gerrard can at least break all of bad opinions toward him by changing ettifaq to be a better club under him. Gerrard has been determining the first target to be bought by ettifaq after he has been officially joined in ettifaq as a new coach.

It has been reported by sempre milan if divock origi becomes the first target by gerard.

Quote

As has been reported on Twitter by Sacha Tavolieri, Al-Ettifaq are contemplating making a bid for the Belgian striker who Milan are very keen to sell this summer.

Origi joined Milan last summer on a free transfer from Liverpool and there were hopes that he would rival Olivier Giroud for the main striker role throughout the campaign.

Divock is not having a chance to play in the regular club. He is rarely getting regular time to play.

Cuadrado is presently a free agent and has been offered to Lazio multiple times, but they have consistently declined his offer. Cristiano Ronaldo is the primary player of Al-Nassr, and he has more equal rights than the coach and more senior players in the club before him. Cuadrado and Ronaldo do not have that link as former teammates; they presumably had troubles in the past at Allianz Stadium in Italy, but the outcomes of their fights were kept discrete, but it appears that they will be made public very soon. Al-Nassr is keen on bringing the Colombian here, but will only do so if Ronaldo gives the board the go-ahead; despite the fact that he is not greater than the club, anything can happen in the transfer market.

Juan Cuadrado signed a deal with Chelsea in 2015 (for a huge amount of £23.3 million), but as a result of his disappointing performance they loaned him out to Juventus in the same year. He managed to get a contract from Juventus two years later and that lasted till early this year. Now he is not contracted to any of the clubs and is being trated as a free agent. Anyway, if Ronaldo doesn't want him in Al Nassr, then the club management is not going to hire him. And I don't think that any other club within Saudi Professional League will be interested either.

Most chances he will not go to Saudi League because right now he feels good about himself and want to play in Europe instead of going to in any other league even situation is looking not good with his agent is talking with few clubs but until now we have no positive sign for him to be joined in any club and as he already joked Cristiano Ronald don't want him into Saudi League it's another problem for him.

His career is also not good but mostly feeling he is average player which and have chance into any competitive league but if he fails to have anything from here then most chances he will go to MLS which is also good for the player like Juan Cuadrado, or he has to fly back to his country where he can join any club as well.

It seems like that there was a personal problem between ronaldo and cuadrado in the past. that's why ronaldo dislike him. I think that it's quite better for al anssr to find replacement for cuadrado. It will be far better rather than bringing conflict into the club that will be destroying the chemistry. I do support ronaldo to avoid it. He is making good decision by telling its club not to sign him as a new player.

But did you know that by doing that Ronaldo acts like a club owner and his friends probably didn't like what he was doing I mean it can trigger jealousy , if indeed Ronaldo has information about Cuadrado should not be known by the public he can meet the club owner in person that way is certainly safer and more comfortable. After Marcelo Brozovic Al Nassr doesn't have new players anymore? wonder why they are not active in the market Huh

I am one who believes that Mane will eventually move to the Saudi Pro League maybe not this season but maybe next season, it would be better if the club from here get Mane for free, right? so they can use the transfer budget to pay higher salaries. On the other hand, as we know Mane is very suitable to play in the Saudi League he understands the structure and the situation. By the way don't expect the market value of old players to increase, it will not happen bro, just look at Ronaldo whose market price is only 15 million even though he once occupied the position of the most expensive player, obviously age is the standard for determining market value.

After having poor season with Bayern Munich right now his career is having bad time because Bayern Munich is targeting Harry Kane in case of complete deal they will offload Sadio Mané even right now we have few suitable deals for him in top clubs of Europe which can bring his career back on track as well but for this he has to change his behaviour as well which is creating problems for him in last few years.

With few Saudi League clubs are also trying to have contract with him specially Al-Ahli which is newly promoted and already signed Firmino as they want to reunite him with Sadio Mané but currently nothing is predictable because his main focus is European club with Champions League spot is still his focus.

Will we see a coach derby between Gerrard and Lampard in Saudi Professional League?

They both are not excellent coaches and got some failures in their coach career so far. From stories of Lampard and Gerrard, we can see big differences between player and coach careers. They both are very smart and had legendary player careers but as coaches, they were not able to have good management and results for their clubs.

Once they're popular, these players have their involvement in each and everything. Cuadrado also said there are options and we'll analyse about it and go with the best. Ronaldo and Cuadrado have played three seasons together.

The Saudi Arabia Pro League have opened doors for the soccer players all around the world. More switching were taking place from the European Leagues as the contract comes to an end. Popular players increase will surely have big expectation on the upcoming season.

Cuadrado is old already and it will be more easily for him if he moves to Saudi Professional League which has less competitiveness than big leagues in Europe. He is still useful like he shown in Juventus and will be useful for clubs in Saudi Arabia. One thing I really like about Cuadrado is his professionality which has been proven through his career. At all clubs he has played so far, he is very professional, no drama from Cuadrado.

Another news related to the league is Cuadrado being rejected by Cristiano Ronaldo which refused to see him playing with Al Nassr. They played together in Juventus and I assume they didn't get along with each other? Otherwise why refuse him with them..

Yes sir, 31 years is the average age of European players who join the Saudi League. Regarding Mane price it continues to fall because his performance at Bayern Munich is not very good for a striker like Mane, also maybe the incident Sadio Mane punched Leroy Sane which triggers the price of Mane further down. Could be the right decision, but also not. Because although Mane price has dropped dramatically, next season it might be able to increase again, if Mane shows good performance for Bayern Munich.
But it seems that the Bayern board doesn't really like Mane, because last season he was not as expected so I'm not too sure he will stay at there, and there is still a possibility he will join the Saudi League. Although Mane agent confirmed there was no offer from club in this league but this summer transfer window is still open Wink

I am one who believes that Mane will eventually move to the Saudi Pro League maybe not this season but maybe next season, it would be better if the club from here get Mane for free, right? so they can use the transfer budget to pay higher salaries. On the other hand, as we know Mane is very suitable to play in the Saudi League he understands the structure and the situation.

I believe the Arab League has a special goal of bringing in top European players with big salaries.

In the past, the top players spent their retirement years in the Chinese league but now they have all switched to the Suadi Arab league. Maybe people will say Chinese and Arabic are different. Now I'm going to tell you the facts, football is not just a sport, but an industry where there is a huge flow of money. there is capital, there are expenses and income, and their income can be from selling merchandise tickets for TV broadcasting rights and many more, even sponsors don't want to come in if the club doesn't benefit them. remember, football is a business, as far as I know it is in the same class as Italian Serie A, TV rights worldwide are dropping since 2020, now I don't know. I wonder whether the Arab League can compete with Europe's top leagues, it's only a matter of popularity first, if the quality is very different.
What do you think the aim of the owners of Arab League clubs is to squander money without profit?

I think because they are in a state of building their league to be stronger so it wouldn't surprise us if a saudi arabia team splashed out big on signing top European players in this transfer window. Even if you look at the current progress in the SPL, of course they already have progress in terms of audience and broadcast rights from every well-known television channel that broadcasts their league.

Now, Gerrad presence is increasingly becoming one of the big hype in this transfer window because the Saudi Arabian team really wants to drown out news about other leagues such as the Chinese league or the MLS league. so they are talked about a lot for now in almost all the media and it will make their league more popular in the next season for sure everything is a business and that is what is being built.

Yes but its not so easy to build up a league to million of people and get them hooked after a few rounds, because you can spend thousands and contract a lot of players but if the games are shit you remain the same.

You can see after Ronaldo arrivals only some fanboys see the games but the whole normal football person still seeing the normals leagues and only see some highlights from Saudi Arabia.

No I think that the players from Saudi Arabia are ok with the new situation as more eyes are directed at the league and also at them because of the European stars going abroad. I think they have an increase in the audience from broadcasting, but also more attention on social media and more clicks on Youtube and other platforms. When they don't get enough time to play and show their quality, the reason might be that they are not good enough and then they wouldn't get an offer from European clubs anyway. All those players from Europe going there also leads to more infrastructure being built and improved, more well educated coaches and other professionals will also go there. I can only see advantages for all those Saudi players.

Mane going to Saudi Arabia "might" be a little to early, he could still play a few more seasons, majority of the players that went to Saudi Arabia has been young, there are only few players who got paid a lot of money and were still young, I guess most players who got paid those 50-100+ million per year contracts were old, Mane is not that old yet, he still has talent.

However, when you offer someone 100+ million a year, I can't really say who could say no to that, it might look like you are retiring if you agree to that, but at the same time we are talking about 100+ here, you could literally retire. What could he get per year, 20 million at most? For how long? Maybe 1-2 more seasons? With 100 million for just one year, he could make more than his entire career from this point forward.

Hm, I haven't heard any rumours that Mane might move to Saudi Arabia, it hasn't even been suggested, on the contrary, there are now suspicions that he will move to Chelsea. The English were in talks with Bayern in May about it, but since then nothing more is known, so maybe he will stay in Germany at all. Even if one considers the move to Saudi Arabia in theory it is strange, he is playing at a high level and could certainly do so for a few more years

To end this speculation, here's what Mane's manager said: Sadio Mane’s manager denies rumored move to Saudi Arabia

It has been said that Chelsea wasn't on their options either but Mane's transfer is already rumored because Bayern might not able to allocate all the forwards in the team because they are on the hunt and the thing is, Mane's camp aren't even denying that. So, it did seems that it will all happen this summer. Meanwhile, Manchester United remains steadfast and shows their interest to acquire Mane.

Hmm, well rumours are usually nothing more than rumours, so maybe the information about talks with Chelsea is just nothing. I think he would fit in well at manchester united if he moves there. The English Premier League itself is very competitive, unlike Saudi Arabia and more so the Bundesliga, so he can show his worth there, as he has done before

A few days ago I saw some news that some Saudi teams want to hire Buffon while he is still under contract with his team Parma and he left other teams to play there and get retired from the team where he start his career but according to some news, he was absent in the training cap and this can maybe a good reason to say he is getting closer to leave his team to the Saudi teams.
However, the Buffon we know, respects his team and he won't join Saudi teams even for the money he can earn there.

Saudi's offer is very interesting but buffon shall aware if he is an old guy right now. It will be far better if he can enjoy his life without getting big pressure. Buffon can announce his retirement as soon as possible to make everything clear.
He will not accept saudi's offer consider his age is not young again yet there's no confirmation came from buffon. I hope buffon is gonna retire and enjoy his life. It has been a very long time since he was playing at the top of his performance in serie a.
Buffon needs to think about that. He must think about his condition. He can't force his heart to work even harder. His health is not the same as when he was young.

To be honest, I rarely look for information or watch the Italian League. unexpectedly, this legendary goalkeeper still exists today. I tried to find some information and one of them, as reported by The Sun, Buffon has attracted interest from a Saudi Pro League club who did not want to reveal the name of the club. the club has offered a contract of 25 million Pounds, per year to this legendary goalkeeper.

Rumor has it, Buffon is weighing his options. Previously, it was believed that Buffon was planning to end his career as a footballer in an extraordinary way. Buffon could have finished his contract period at Parma, another option is that Buffon can retire now. and another option that Buffon can take is to leave Italian football and join one of the four clubs owned by PIF.
what exactly are they planning, I'm quite confused. but despite all that, all decisions rest with the legendary goalkeeper. nonetheless, it will be very interesting to see if Buffon is interested in joining the Saudi club. although, actually I also better hope that this legendary goalkeeper ends his career.

Gianlugi Buffon is one of the greatest goalkeepers of not just his generation but football as a sport in general. He's among the most capped European goalkeepers of all time and that goes a long way to explain how much he has offered as a goalkeeper in the beautiful game of football.
That been said, it believed that he went back to Parma so he can retire as a goalkeeper from his boyhood club. So I think it'll not honourable of him to change that decision because of the lucrative deals that Saudi clubs brings to the table
