After defeating in a match against Argentina in the Qatar World Cup, Saudi Arabia was widely criticized in the football world. I think since then Saudi Arabia has been taking various steps to bring more changes in football. As this country is financially self-sufficient, they are ready to take any player to their clubs even if they pay the most according to the demand. Especially after Ronaldo joined the Saudi club, now other players have also started to arrive. Benzema joined the Saudi club recently and it got more attention from people in the football world. By the next few years, these Saudi clubs will rise to the highest level in terms of eligibility. The world's biggest star players will be waiting to play in the Saudi club.
It's only a matter of time before the Saudi Arabia league's planning becomes as popular as European championships. Their autonomous professional source of resources and finances will influence their approach to football, as they will use what they have to search for what they desire. Saudi Arabia has a poor record in the 2022 Qatar World Cup. Although they consistently failed to go beyond the group stage in major country events, the more essential thing was to brighten their domestic league. Improvements and signing of significant personalities in the football world.

The reason why European players troping the Saudi Arabian League is because used clubs has the money to get this player and with time the Saudi Arabia League will be very interesting League because of the players they can afford to be in their league. Next season will be very interesting because more European players will be playing in the league.
the arrival of some of Europe's top players will build the Saudi Professional League even better. especially to the attention of foreign media. which maybe not many television stations have cooperated for the broadcast rights of the Saudi Professional League. and the competition will also be more interesting. Events like this will boost morale for local Arab players. especially when it comes to upgrading skills.- Arab league broadcasting rights up
- Sales of team merchandise will increase
- Arab league coverage in major media
- Ticket revenue. Etc
What is certain is that it cannot be denied that the Arab League will be even more exciting and interesting to watch. I also admit that Ronaldo has indeed succeeded in becoming a magnet so that European players are interested in playing in the Arab league at the end of their careers. The best league for superstars who are about to retire. Maybe this is also one of Saudi Arabia's visions and missions to change the center in 2030.
In one factor, Benzema's belief was the thing that made him interested in playing in the Saudi Arabian league. Apart from that, in terms of age and salary, the offer is a second choice for him to play in an easier league due to the aging factor. Also another thing is the existence of the figure of Ronaldo, who is likely for him to be one of the challenges to accept this offer.
Al ittihad are the reigning champions this season and they seem to be continuing to make changes in the squad to increase their strength for next season. With the arrival of kante and Benzema I think they are relatively strong next season even Al nassr will most likely find it difficult to stop Al ittihad in the next season. There are still a lot of players who are likely to join the SPL this season.
I think the money is the only reason and nothing else. I mean this dude won't be making this much in his life, for a few more seasons as player and nothing else after that, this dude will not make this much money ever, he was offered money he wouldn't earn ever again.Al ittihad are the reigning champions this season and they seem to be continuing to make changes in the squad to increase their strength for next season.

That is why he didn't turn it down, there aren't that many players that would be worth 100 million euro as a transfer fee let alone as salary, famously the biggest one is 60 million and mbappe if I am not wrong, with the loyalty bonus (signing fee) that becomes a bit closer to 100 but still not there. This dude is making 100+ million a year easily, that's just unheard of, and he is almost at retirement age as well. I am pretty sure that there aren't that many players who would reject that, only like handful of players who would and they are mostly young (and apparently Messi as well).
More stars have arrived since Cristiano Ronaldo arrived at Saudi clubs. Ever since Karim Benzema joined the Al Ittihad club a few days ago, the massive discussion has come to a head. Of course, Saudi clubs are ready to get bigger stars because they have brought in players with the most money shortages. Once upon a time, Saudi clubs would be filled with stars as the tragic joy worked within them and ready to take the clubs to the pinnacle of development. The audience is just waiting for the match between Ronaldo Club and Benzema Club to take place.

It's a very good move for Benzema to join Al Ittihad. Benzema as a player has achieve almost everything in football, especially towards the end of his career. He is a legend for a club as big as Madrid. He's also the player that has won the most trophies with Madrid. That's a pretty big achievement. So taking an offer that gives him a lot of money in a country he would be comfortable in is a wise move. There's also the fact that Al Ittihad has a very good project. They are recruiting the right players and they will still try to get more God players.
It's going to be interesting to see the rivary between Ronaldo and Benzema.
A bit surprised that if saudi clubs are willing to get two EU coaches. Mourinho has been linked to the al hilal.Mou's track record is very good in EU competitions while gerard is always having bad result in the EPL as a manager.
I don't even expect it these clubs were even willing to sign two coaches from european competition. The competition gonna be even more interesting if mou and gerard will be agreed to come to the saudi pro league as soon as possible.
Saudi clubs are going so crazy these days. So many targets must be meet by them before transfer season end.

Al-Hilal are hoping to bounce back from the disappointment of missing out on Lionel Messi, as he instead moved to Inter Miami, and Mourinho is now being targeted as their new manager,

Al-Ettifaq are reported to have made an offer to Gerrard, with the Liverpool legend out of work after his departure from Villa. Reuters claim that the former midfielder is considering it, although he has yet to make a decision.

We agree, maybe the main reason Benzema is willing to accept Al Ittihad's offer is the fantastic salary, at the end of his career in football. besides that, Benzema has an interest if we refer based on his beliefs. so, I wouldn't doubt if Benzema can adapt well, in fact it looks like Benzema will achieve chemistry quickly with his new club. because, culturally, he knows very well the conditions of the Saudi Pro League. and, most likely if Benzema will be a tough competitor in terms of scoring goals in this competition. thus, there will be tough competition between the two former stars who have both played for the Real Madrid club. looks like this league will be more interesting. in fact, it is not impossible, if Al Shabab, Al Hilal, Al Ahli, will bring in other stars to enliven this increasingly competitive competition. although, basically their goal is nothing but promoting Saudi itself in the eyes of the world. at least, we have a new spectacle besides the European league competition. unfortunately, Messi prefers MLS rather than enlivening the trend to this competition.

However, it's absolutely clear to everyone that Karim Benzema's main reason of going to Saudi is because of the financial package that comes with the deal. Benzema is aging and would soon retire from football and it's very wise of him to chose money ahead of any other football related reason at this time of his career

You can count on it that it is just a matter of time before this competition will be full of European top players, or at least good players. I find it strange anyway that it has taken so long for someone like Ronaldo to come to this country. The amounts you can earn there, you have to play football for a few years in Europe or perhaps the rest of your career. I read somewhere that Benzema will soon earn about half a million euros a day. That is a considerable wage, Ronaldo will probably also be around that rate. Those sheikhs can easily afford that. This competition will only get stronger and stronger.

Maybe Al Nassr failed in all competitions this season but it's not the end of everything including Ronaldo who is not worth blaming because he comes in the middle of the season, if Ronaldo played since the beginning of the season, the situation might be different. Just info Ronaldo might leave this league next season but it's only for a while not forever, he will return if his job in Newcastle is finished.
First, Al Nassr made a mistake by sacking Rudi Garcia when the competition was nearing its end. after the dismissal of Rudi Garcia, Al Nassr fell to Al Hilal and lost in the King's Cup semifinal match against Al Wehda. after that, Al Nassr was only able to win 3 of their 5 matches, the other 2 matches ended in draws. meaning, the new coach needs time and chemistry with the players to build a system that works the way he wants. however, that decision actually made Al Nassr even further away from the Saudi Pro League championship trophy.
at least, if there will be a change of coach, it will be done after the competition is over. anyway, Rudi Garcia isn't so bad. Unfortunately, internal problems in the dressing room turned out to be a rash decision. which in the end, the Al Nassr players needed a new adjustment to the style and the new coach system. as a result, as we see that Al Ittihad has ensured the Saudi Pro League trophy.
On the other hand, I don't blame Ronaldo. but it seems, Ronaldo needs more time to adapt to the Saudi Pro League style of football. one more, like you said. Ronaldo arrived in the middle of the season, so it's only natural that he couldn't live up to the expectations of the Al Nassr supporters.
well, regarding Ronaldo to Newcastle, I think it's all still just rumours. so, it is very likely that Ronaldo will stay at Al Nassr.
In another order of ideas:
Luka Modric will decide on Real Madrid future soon amid Saud Arabia rumours
Quote
After Karim Benzema, Luka Modric is the next Real Madrid player facing the possibility of a summer exit.
The veteran midfielder was highly expected to pen a renewal at Santiago Bernabeu earlier in the year. But the renewal has not materialised yet, giving Saudi Arabia the opportunity to try and lure the player to the Middle East.
According to a recent report from COPE, Saudi Arabia have increased their offer for Modric and wants him to join the Saudi 2030 Project, following the footsteps of two of his former Real Madrid teammates Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.
Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr earlier in the year while Benzema recently signed a contract with Al-Ittihad. Now, the Saudi Arabian clubs are ready to make the bet on Modric, as part of their plans to sign all the recent Ballon d’Or winners.

This thing about the great players taking revenge on the Saudi league is something phenomenal, Benzema is one of those who are saying yes, I hope that if that can happen, that league deserves it, besides that it is so that they continue to have the opportunity To show his mastery, here the one who paved the way for this league was CR7.
Yes it's very possible that more famous players would join and i think with Cr7 introduced into the Saudi Pro League has made the league very interesting to watch and the competition would be very tough this season cause they've attracted top European players like Karim Benzema from Realmadrid, Ngolo kantar from Chelsea fc, and several others and are currently bidding for the likes of David De gea, wilifred Zaha, Sergio ramos, Di Maria, Hugo Lloris and many other and Al hilal was on the brink of getting the signature of the famous world cup,Uefa,balon d' or winner Lionel Messi from Paris Saint German fc before he choose to go to the MLS in USA.
The Saudi Pro League is becoming more tough and ranked one of the most competitive in Asia and in the near future would attract lots of fans, due to the current world class players currently involved in the league for instance Cristiano Ronaldo has million of fans who are willing to continue supporting him wherever league he goes to, which in return would make more fans and investors to give more interest to the league and his style of play would also be influential to his team mates helping them improve and become tougher opponets.

I think Benzema is the second star after Ronaldo coming here.Benzema said I am a Muslim and I feel at home here so I talked with my family and they are happy for this decision I took.He maybe is there because of the money and say such things to justify his move which he has gotten to Al Ittihad which is the winner of this last season there and Cristiano is with Al Nassr,making this league at least somewhat more strong and beautiful to watch.An interesting fact is that both players have been Real Madrid ex players,with Ronaldo coming from United while Benzema straight from Real Madrid.Now the only one missing in this league is Messi

A number of teams will become strong, but what's the point of playing in a strong competition if you can't do anything internationally? They can never play against other top teams from other countries, they can participate in the Asian Champions League, but you don't have to expect serious opposition there. It's not just about making a lot of money, you also have to be able to deal with the culture and rules of the country. I think that is something that keeps many footballers from playing football here, because financially it is of course very attractive to play football there.

I see now that Moutinho from Wolves could be the next to join the Saudi League. It’s a real shame Messi didn’t go there but that just proves that money can’t buy everything. It’s a really different life out there but it doesn’t seem to be stopping multiple older stars from swapping Europe for Saudi Arabia. Will be really interesting to see how the league develops over the next few years.
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. 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?
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.
Sorry but you can't tell me that you seriously believe that Benzema went to Saudi Arabia because it is a Muslim country. What were the reasons that he didn't go there ten years ago? What kept him from never going to Real Madrid but instead go straight to a country where the Muslim religion is prevalent and practiced? Do you know what all these players would do if someone offers them a billion to play soccer for a year in Antarctica? They would get a snow suit and fly there immediately. This is about money and not about religion. If it was about religion, Benzema shouldn't have waited 20 years before he goes there.
I think Benzema is the second star after Ronaldo coming here.Benzema said I am a Muslim and I feel at home here so I talked with my family and they are happy for this decision I took.He maybe is there because of the money and say such things to justify his move which he has gotten to Al Ittihad which is the winner of this last season there and Cristiano is with Al Nassr,making this league at least somewhat more strong and beautiful to watch.An interesting fact is that both players have been Real Madrid ex players,with Ronaldo coming from United while Benzema straight from Real Madrid.Now the only one missing in this league is Messi .
One reason maybe indeed because of money, also at an age that is no longer fit surely will be very happy if it can still exist in the world of football, although not playing in the best league. With the presence of Benzema maybe we can also say Ittihad is currently the strongest competitor again for the race title next season, and I think Ronaldo and also Al Nassr are likely to difficulty again if they play against Ittihad at next. .
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.
My question is what if Chelsea don't extend his contract while his contract will expire in the next 3 weeks would he be without a club?
Al-Ittihad could have signed Kante but on additional conditions related to the injury, I honestly remain optimistic that Kante will move to the Saudi League although he would not play since the start of the season because he doesn't have much choice, except for Chelsea to extend his contract.
