I see that Mahrez has quite a chance to join the Saudi Professional League, personally he has reached the highest level in Europe having won the Champions League as well as several titles in the domestic league. Even though the contract is still active until 2025, if you get a suitable offer, Manchester City certainly won't mind letting him go, but with a note that Manchester City also don't lose Bernardo Silva.

Kante judging by his actions is a great and humble guy and in Saudi Arabia he will be comfortable, but Benzema is still a star of another level, the attention to him will be more and it will probably be harder for him to adapt than Kante.

I would not say that Kante is a tough player. He is not afraid to go into clashes with the opponents and as a great midfielder-supporting did a great job, it was almost impossible to go through Kante, but it seems in his career he has never seriously injured anyone, did not break his legs. He's a tough midfielder, but not violent and didn't intentionally break other players out of emotion or anger. And I think other players respected him for these qualities, feared him as a competitor, because Kante always gave his all on the field, but always within the rules.
It is even nice that such a player can earn good money now and please the fans with his game for another couple of years.

We must also admit that the quality of the Saudi league will probably grow a lot with the star players who have joined recently.

Playing in saudi pro league will give less pressure to him. He will be able to enjoy his life to play together with his friend benzema in the same club. More player to come as al ittihad were also targeting some new player from serie a.
Kante has been taking the right decision for his career. He has been winning everything in his life. He won almost all of trophies even world cup. Kante is now trying to focus enjoy his life as he will be playing in arab. I hope he will be able to play very well in saudi pro league.
It's very interesting to see the match between al nassr and ittihad. The match between ronaldo and benzema. I can't wait for the upcoming season to come soon.
Saudi pro league will have so many new faces play in the league. It's very interesting to watch this league regularly as it's also very attractive after european league..

Everything is possible regarding Mahrez. For now he has a contract until 2025 and Manchester City isn't under pressure and has to make a decision. They are closely scrutinizing the transfer market themselves and if they find an opportunity to sign a strong player on Mahrez' position, there will probably be news following very soon because then they could sell him without weakening the team. But as I said time is not against them for now. Mahrez' profile would be another one that fits the SPL activities very well.

There is no recent news regarding this player, and his contract at Manchester City runs until 2025, but rumors are circulating that he is also interested in joining the Saudi Pro Liga, and seeing how English clubs see an opportunity to sell players who are over 30 years old to the league At this time, it is very likely that soon there will be an update regarding Riyadh Mahrez to the Saudi Pro League.
Chelsea have already managed to sell a number of players here and maybe City will also have success doing the same.

Kante is only 32 years old and his health allows him to still play. He played 26 games in the 21/22 season and only 7 in 22/23, but the competition at Chelsea is clearly higher than in the Saudi League.

He has a contract until 2027, he can work hard and until 36-37 years old he can really play at the highest level. In addition, he seems to be a Muslim and should easily fit into Saudi society, and since he is a really modest guy and is not known for scandals or parties, everything should go smoothly for him.

Do you remember that it was Al-Hilal who didn't succeed in bringing Messi to the Arab League because Messi preferred to move closer to Club Inter Miami. And at that time Al-Hilal turned his hunt to one of the Man City players, namely Riyad Mahrez. So, I'm curious about the latest news on this one, but I haven't found any updates regarding Al-hilal's offer to bring in Riyad Mahrez. Has anyone read the news regarding news updates about Al-hilal and Riyad Mahrez?

Maybe the goal of the Arab League is to bring star players to play in the Saudi Arabian league with the mission of making the Saudi Arab League famous and competitive. I salute Saudi Arabia, which is a rich country but progress is very fast worldwide.

First, we are surprised by the record salary that Al Nassr offered to Ronaldo after the 2022 world cup Qatar. after this competition was over, other clubs competed to bring in other top Europeans. Al Ittihad, the winner of the 2022/2023 season competition title participated in enlivening to bring in newcomers from European leagues. unmitigated, to bring in Benzema, Al Ittihad was willing to spend money as well as a fantastic salary. of course, we wonder why Saudi clubs are suddenly competing to bring in European stars even though Ronaldo and Benzema are no longer young.

After investigating, it turns out that these clubs have been acquired by the PIF company under the auspices of Prince Mohammed bin Salman. which means, clubs such as Al Nassr, Al Ittihad, AlAhli and Al Hilal, are owned by one person, namely the Saudi prince with a project built together with the Saudi kingdom. scenario, they want to develop Saudi football more developed. plus, introducing the Saudi world from the football side.

I think their goal is not really to win the cup like the AFC. however, more than that, maybe we can only speculate and assume. in fact, Ronaldo was signed and at the same time became the ambassador for the 2030 world cup for Saudi Arabia. that means, their target is to host the 2030 world cup. plus, at the same time introducing Saudi to the world that they are ready to be open both in the field of business or whatever that seems to be their project. that's why, there are many famous players they bring in. one of them as I said above. plus, the Saudis are targeting the attention of the world's eyes on them through football.

by the way, this is my assumption and has nothing to do with actual facts. So what I'm saying from my perspective, is most likely wrong.

Any player at this age can't have good performance in any team because is 32 years old and he is old enough to even get retired at any time. Just like any player who gets old, he moved to the Arabian teams just to mean some money at the end of his career because a player at this age can't play for more than 2-3 years even in the Saudi Professional League.

Yes, I also think Ronaldo's transfer was great for the Saudi League and even also for Saudi Arabia in general. There is something called nation-branding and that Ronaldo move was great for Saudi Arabia. They are not only getting a football player, but they show their country to new markets and millions of people. Ronaldo's salary is extreme but he is still great at this age, I can't believe it. Maximum level a football player can reach ambition, perseverance, stability, professionalism, diligence. And many more uncountable reasons. And this man is still playing, as on the first day, without compromising anything. He is the possibly the first person young players should emulate. Deserves so much respect. Saudis have made a good move by acquiring him even that amount of money.

You are right, Kante and Benzema may not have obstacles to playing in the Saudi League except related to language/communication and of course they already have a translator, For Kante playing in the Saudi League it means playing in his own country this means he was used to and understood the rules there and then he can focus more on improving performance and avoiding injuries. Kante is a typical hard player so it is vulnerable to injury he was never afraid when F2F with opponents in any situation.

With the current state of things, and the market force, Saudi Arabia pro league are topping in this transfer window, they are now competing with all European clubs in the market, this is just the beginning of what they will become in the next five years, the European media houses are making wrong predictions on the league just to reduce investors moral, but the league are getting more investors now than before, everyone wants to invest in the league, because of the international audience they have gotten ever since Ronaldo joined the league.
Europe should better watch their back, Saudi Arabia is coming, the taxations and the environment are the key factors players consider for choosing the league over some clubs in Europ.

Every player has times when he shines and times when he falters, but what matters is the ability to transmit back to form, which most players find challenging. N'Golo Kante's excellent tackling performance has faded long ago, and we may be seeing a new version of the Frenchman.  He's no longer consistent in games, which is one of the reasons he departed Chelsea, because a tough league like the Premier League expects the most outstanding performance from every player. Kante will fit perfectly in his new team, a new chapter for him and I hope he utilized his time smoothly.

I hope Kante will not have any more problems with his injury because if he has been injured for a long time he will be even more vulnerable but so far they have passed the medical which means Kante now looks fitter he will also have many minutes to play with Benzema who is the mainstay of striker Al Ittihad.
