The deal will be a good and prosperous way to end a career filled with success and some challenges. The 32year N’Golo Kante has been nicknamed the player with two hearts because of his strength and consistency. But in recent times injuries have been his biggest enemy. He is humble and easy going and there has never been any record of him having problems with any player or coach. I wish he seals this contract because he will need the money to enjoy his retirement.

He might not have off-the-pitch economic value like his fellow French player Benzema but Al-Ittihad will benefit from the experience, strength, and prowess o,f the French world cup winner. Younger players will be able to benefit from his experience and good character. Al-Ittihad seems to be more proactive than Al-Nassr because they want to keep dominating the Saudi Arabia Professional League. After losing Messi, SPL will still get more attention next season with the signing of Benzema and maybe Kante.

Indeed, there was a lot of talk about Kante's arrival at Al-Ittihad and it seems that what Kante has experienced this season could become his stumbling block that made him fail to join Al-Ittihad. The injury problem experienced by Kante is very complex and learning from what Al-Ittihad has done can be an important reference for them because bringing in Kante must be proportional to the salary they will spend later. But I still hope that the injury problem will be resolved soon, however, for the SPL team to be able to get a football star like Kante and not too old is already very good for the development of football in the Middle East.

Kante has not yet signed the final contract. I heard that if the medical problem has become the main problem that was preventing the final deal to be agreed by both of parties. In my opinion if the final agreement will be made once kante will be successfully passing the medichal check up.
As you know that if kante has ever absence from chelsea for almost 6 months. That's why ittihad is still trying to learn whether that potentially gives problem to the ittihad in the future or not.
In my opinion if the chance for final deal to be made is very big. I think that the hamstring injury that has ever happened with kante already solved. Kante was also able playing in the several match.
Since kante will be paid with a lot of money by ittihad and the club wants to make sure if kante will not be facing injury once he will be officially joined as ittihad's player.

We know that Kante has a pretty bright history of the previous team, before he experienced a decline in the last season.
Of course, if Kante has a bright opportunity for a career in Al Ittihad if the performance returns full, and does not experience injuries so that it makes a fairly high loss for the team.
But what Al Ittihad found today found a pretty good game, and today became the peak leader, of course, with the arrival of Kante will make Ittihad better and maintain his dominance on the Arab land gridiron.

I think that the Arab League will be very fun and very competitive, because there are many world players who compete or join the Arab League team, it seems that the media's attention will be quite shifted.

I heard that Modric has an offer for 80 + 20 million (I don't remember the details, but 20 is bonuses) and he is still thinking about it. Maybe now that Messi, in a sense, has increased the free budget for purchases by leaving for the MLS, a better offer will be made for Modric. In general, there is still a whole summer ahead, and there are already so many high-profile transitions. I hope the Saudis don't slow down 

Saudia is a rich state and can invest millions and billions on the players. they would also be great host and would treat their players with respect.
Life is Saudia is good too. Messi has joined inter miami now - had he been coming to Saudi Professional league there would be great matches football fans would be viewsing now all our hopes have died.

Messi's move to the miami already finalized, and that's why intermiami already announced him as officially signed by intermiami. So many criticism has been coming towards intermiami. Even intermiami's keeper has been also critizing its team about how bad the facility that owned by intermiami itself. I just see that how kun aguero was sending the current standing if intermiami already placed at the bottom. Messi will stay there. Messi has been helping miami to gain its popularity even though messi has not been playing for intermiami.
As far as i know that if the tickets for the next seasons already sold out. CMIIW.

Messi brings so many effect to the intermiami. I think that the partnership with apple becomes a key why miami was able signing messi.

There was a documentary I read about the main reason Messi accepted Miami move. Although all the issues in the article were treated as a speculation and the heavy part of the speculation was that Messi had a deal with David Beckham about franchise and ownership of the club. I didn't get the real gist, either I read it when I was tired or sleepy. So, I am asking now if there is anything like franchise right that is included in Messi's contract with Inter Miami.
The only strong reason Messi gave was settling with his family purpose as he is getting to the age of retirement.

I thought his moving to Miami has been finalized, the saudi Arabia team needed him but he choose to play for Miami. Well if his moving to Miami is a rumour we will still get to find out the main destination of where he is going, but if it is Miami it will really help the club to gain popularity just as  how Ronaldo made his Club to be more popular now .

Messi has made his choice and we must agree with him on that. Benzema made his choice by accepting to play in the Saudi Arabia because is a muslim country, Ronaldo join because he wants to transform the league to top five in the wold, which is making wave already. because of Ronaldo effect people are now considering offers from Saudi Arabia. and within five years from now, the Saudi pro league will be filled with big stars from Europe, the taxations and the city is quiet impressive.

Messi, just want to enjoy life in the USA, the Inter Miami is too small to have such a star, their stadium is an open one without security, they lacks so many facilities to have a player of his kind. But his family priority first.

I don't know whether Messi is off so much worse because he declined the offer to go to the Saudi Professional League and instead joins the MLS. A couple of details are coming to light and he will share revenue from Apple+ subscriptions and soccer related revenue in the US from Adidas merchandise sales. The marktet in the US is anything but saturated. He will probably not reach the 500 million that are said to have been offered to him in the SPL, but he will still be making very good money. I am sure they did their projections and maths beforehand and then made the decision.

But the question is still unanswered whether this approach by Saudi clubs can ever be sustainable and how far they will go. Are they going to sign a dozen of players, or a hand full per team? Where are the limits? If they pay Kanté 100 million, how many are going to follow with such a salary?

So Messi is a smart guy - he visited the places with family to decide where he would be going. Now he will play in States.
Al Hialal just failed to sign deal with him. However Al Nasser management was strong to have signed Ronaldo.

Saudi Arabian clubs are completely willing to pay exorbitant sums if they are interested in a player. They did it for Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, and N'Golo Kante, and they made even larger bids for Leo Messi, who declined because he's a different breed of player, always performing at a greater level than others. The Saudi pro league has already begun to develop, with the primary objective of becoming one of the top leagues in the next five years. Despite the fact that there are rumors of another deal. Wolve crucial defender Joao Moutinho is interested in joining the Saudi Arabian squad to play alongside some of the best players in the world.

N'Golo Kante will be a free transfer player this month because his contract with Chelsea will end on June 30 but there is no news about the new contract
Al Ittihad who knows Kante's status is trying to make an a offer $100 million but Kante hasn't made a decision he is still waiting for the update from Chelsea
reportedly Chelsea are willing to release Kante because he is more often injured in the last 2 years.

Messi won't take long and retire, i'm pretty sure of that, he would either retire in Miami or maybe go back to either Barcelona or even Newell's Old Boys and reitre there, but there are still other players that they can bring to lift the league even more and make it more interesting to foreigners like Di Maria, Modric...etc

It won't happen. Messi already agreed to join with intermiami rather than al hilal. that makes al hilal will be trying to find another target that can be brought to the SPL. I see no chance for hilal to get messi now or at least until the end of transfer season.
Some players like busquets and suarez were also following messi to join in intermiami as well. This club owner by beckham was the weakest club in MLS. bekcham hope with the come of messi will able to change everything right now.

Let's talk about another player that may be possible to come to the al hilal very soon. In my opinion that if al hilal will be able to find another super start to join in its club.

Al ahli and nassrs are still trying so hard to buy more players from EU. Ittihad has been successfully securing kante and benzema but it's not enough.

I think they will keep chasing Messi because at the end thats the legend they would be needing

Actually money can buy everything because in this case, Messi is going to get a better deal at MLS than the Saudi Arabia league. The Saudis came with offers that'll only benefit Messi instantly but the offers of MLS would benefit Messi for a life time. He's going to get a share in apple share and adidas and might also be getting similar deal to David Beckham deals that'll give him the right to buy a club for much lesser market value than the club will be valued as of when he wants to purchase the club. Messi deals hasn't been fully revealed but there's every chance it was the better deal than what the Saudis were offering. I'm glad too that Messi didn't go to Saudi Arabia because that would have shifted the whole attention to the league and it would had spoiled football.

I'm not happy Ronaldo is playing there either, he should look for a way to come back to Europe and entertain us because football has been boring lately (nothing special is happening in Europe). No spectacular display anymore. Kante moving to Saudi Arabia is understandable and the same thing with Benzema because this guys has nothing left to offer to football in Europe, Kante is wornout and Benzema needs to give room for younger strikers to shine at Real Madrid to help them compete with clubs like Manchester city in the champions league.

Ngolo Kante has fully recovered from the injury that caused him the better part of last season and kept him sidelined from delivering those world class performances he's known for.
He'll surely be a good signing for his new Arabian club because of the fact that he knows how to quickly adapt to new environments and club just as he did when he left Leicester to join Chelsea after helping the latter win the English Premier against all odds.

As we have things right now most chances Saudi League could be good for the many players those are not able to have their required response from the UEFA clubs with mostly prefer to this league because of quality and competition level but as Saudis are doing most chances they will be also able to have positive results in coming years but still living here is never been easy for players because its completely different place with few stick rules we have few reports about Ronaldo's wife is also having complaints, but they are trying to adjust just because of this Messi is also not here.

But, now with the money and influence things could be good and surely Saudis will also try to increase quality for having better player from around the world here in this league.
