Maybe not so much when they are young, anyone who goes to Saudi league before 35 would be players who are not good to be at the top clubs to begin with, and Ronaldo was playing so much better than his current performance during those ages, hell even last year he had a hattrick at United, he was definitely good enough.

I think this is a valid option for two type of players, one of them is the player who rather get paid a lot in Saudi league instead of a lower level European league, like why be in Norwegian league or Danish league or Irish league when you can be in Saudi league for x10 more money? Secondly players like Ronaldo, who already proved himself in bigger clubs as the best, and can get paid for his last years.

Nice to see that the interest in Saudi Professional League is not restricted to the matches involving Al Hilal and Al Nassr. Al-Taawoun has performed credibly so far this season. They are just one rank behind Al Hilal, and at 5th place in the points table. Al-Fayha on the other hand is at 12th position. Unlike most of the other clubs, the lineup for Al-Taawoun mostly consists of native players (not taking away the fact that Cameroonian Léandre Tawamba remains as one of the pillars of their attack). Aschraf El Mahdioui of Netherlands and Kaku of Paraguay also add some foreign power to Al-Taawoun. Among the local players, Hassan Kadesh and Fahad Al-Rashidi have been in good form for this season.

This is becoming long stretched discussed topic Ronaldo dod this did that and everyone knows that after his end in Manchester United and Portugal team and how things ended was really rough and even their interviews were not good so Ronaldo had no future in Europe.  And additionally Al Nassr proposal was too good financial wise so he opted this option for his betterment.

Tomorrow there will be a match between Al-Taawoun vs Al-Feiha, we know that the host Al-Taawoun previously lost against Al-Nassr and that will certainly make Al-Taawoun want to get 3 additional points in this match. Meanwhile, their opponent Al-Feiha is in 12th place in the standings, of course they also don't want to lose because they have a target to climb to 9th in the standings. Prediction for a score of 2-1 for Al-Taawoun's win and if I bet for both teams to score goals.

Due to the inclusion of one well-known player, Cristiano Ronaldo, the Saudi Arabia league is growing in popularity every day. He established impressive records in European football, and he now hopes to do the same in the Arab league. Both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are well-known football players; if they played in the same league, the GOATs would face stiff competition. They are both top athletes who won their trophies when they were still young. Now that they are older, it is time for them to play football for fun and to unwind after the countless hours of practice and dedication it took to get to this level.

From the standings so far, there are 3 teams that have the same opportunity, namely Al Nassr, Ittihad FC and Al Shabab, only the third team has played more matches, but all three have the same points and the goal difference is not much different, it's quite interesting to look forward to will Al Nassr be the champion this season even though this is not a big league like the other leagues but with the existing standings it makes it more competitive

It is plain and simple. Players will opt for the club which offers them the highest salary, similar to the case with any other job. If I am working in a specific sector within the job market, I have no reason to continue with a job that offers me one-sixth of the salary that another employer is willing to pay for me. Those who complain about it are just jealous that he is earning this much. And I have watched a few matches in the Saudi Professional League (especially those involving Al Nassr and Al Hilal). Surprisingly the matches were of high quality. And nowadays I am finding the European leagues quite overrated.

How do you know that Messi is going to A Hilal? The rumors about what Messi is going to do next are as vast as the universe. You can find articles from the same day where some state he is going to Al Hilal, some state that he is going to extend his contract with PSG and some state that it is possible he is going back to Barcelona...

And when you say that it can't be for the money when players like Ronaldo or Messi go to the Saudi Professional League, you are very wrong. If you have a net worth of 500 - 700 million and you worked for that your entire life and someone comes around the corner and offers you 300 million per year and even a role as some ambassador afterwards (which is literally zero effort) with tens or hundreds of millions on top, what are you going to do?

Many players went to the MLS and that was the time when Saudi Arabian soccer wasn't yet as lucrative, but now more and more players will go to Saudi Arabia exactly because of the money. There were rumors that Messi is going to play for Inter Miami, but I think that Inter Miami won't ever have a chance to outbid the rich Saudi clubs.

On another note, everyone now thought that Ronaldo will dominate every game and score two or more goals after he had this perfect game last week with four goals, but see, he didn't score again. He is also just a human and even in the Saudi league he can't just take the ball and score. That is a sign that the quality of the league did improve, but the sheikhs are willing to spend so much that I wonder whether they do have any limits whatsoever.

We can see the improvement in the quality of football in the Arab League after Christiano Ronaldo into it. He gave a clear statement that European Countries are at a higher level in football and the Asian countries are in need of improvement. What he had said is the reality of football, and Messi moving to Al-Hilal Club can't be for money. Think his net worth, more than enough for his life. Two players into the league makes the league more interesting and more people starts watching it.

Since Ronaldo's departure and decision to go to the Arab League, there have been many rumors that have emerged saying that Leo Messi will go to the Arab League, I think Leo Messi will not go with Ronaldo to the Arab League, especially in terms of quality, many English clubs want Leonel's players. Messi he has pretty good quality, and that doesn't mean Ronaldo isn't good. Leonel Messi was going to go to the Arab League when he decided to earn more income, Maybe that was the reason that happened when he made the decision to go to the League with Ronaldo.

The best thing about all this is that CR7 continues to train and continues to give everything in the GYM and one thing I know is that as long as he continues training hard he will be able to give good results, age is something that we cannot go against but we can do many things to be able to get up, and the body reacts differently, let's remember that CR7 is a person who has very good physical condition, before being a player he is a great athlete, and as he is, he is fit and can develop them to be able to compete with 19-year-olds. twenty.

In the case of CR7, all these things are put to the test, he wants to break with the paradigms of age and that the mind must always control his body.

Saudi football for me was the best option for CR7, I feel that they respect and love him very much, on his 38th birthday they made him a good and delicious cake Saudi football for me was the best option for CR7, I feel that I respect and love him very much , on his 38th birthday they made him a good and delicious cake, this type of thing makes a person feel at home again, now that they give CR7 nationality with the intention that he can play for the Arab team like many They think, this is not, because he is very nationalistic, he would not play for another country, only for his soulful Portugal.


So far the ranking goes like this:

Actually, I'm not really interested anymore to discuss Ronaldo. but let's continue, the fact is, the big clubs of the Europa League do not want Ronaldo even though Mendes has offered him to many big clubs including being willing to reduce his salary by 30%. which in the end, Ronaldo was willing to play at Al Nassr. also, before Ronaldo came to the arab league. he was interviewed by Piers Morgan, that he was not like other players, not forgetting, he mentioned the name Xavi who played in the Qatari league. Ronaldo said that he could still play in Europe's top leagues and was not at all interested in playing in the Arab league. and that's a fact.

but at least now he has joined his new club. as a football lover, I am happy if in the end Ronaldo can lower his ego and play well with Al Nassr. and hopefully Ronaldo can create his new record in this competition with All Nassr.

We already had this discussion infinite times. My question is why should anyone else decide on which is the "wisest" decision to take for Ronaldo? I believe that he is completely capable of taking any such decision. And his decision is to leave European clubs and move to Al Nassr. And I am not too sure whether money alone played a deciding role in this decision. There maybe other factors as well. Anyway, it is his career and he has complete freedom to take whatever decision he want. For an athlete, his prime is quite limited in duration. And for Ronaldo, he is well past his prime. Now let him have the opportunity to wind down his career in a respectful way. 

Ronaldo is a great player,an idol to many,but going to Saudi Arabia was not the wisest of decision,but one could say it was because of money,on the other hand for someone who have lived with so much desire and passion for the game for more than a decade you could argue why he would choose money over individual honours and accolades..his goals will not count as much,neither will his trophies over there as was the case with xavi .

I won't be surprised if Lionel Messi is signed to Saudi league because he has already achieved everything he wants and Saudi league can do anything with money to bring big star player like Messi just to gain more recognition and more fans. Won't be bad if Messi join Ronaldo in the league.

Of course, there may be a possibility that Messi will go to the Saudi league. I thought the odds of Cristiano Ronaldo going to the Saudi Arabian league were low, but they managed to sign him. They can also give an astronomical price to Lionel Messi and transfer him. We are talking about a country with a lot of money. They are trying to be one of the brand countries in football. We may see more star players after Cristiano.

That is the whole transfer is about, I mean he is still providing, he still scored goals, he still assisted, like him as a "player" is definitely great transfer, there is no doubt about that, he is much bigger than Saudi Arabia league level, is he good enough to keep playing in United? Maybe not, I do not know, they look better without him BUT he is definitely much better talent than this team deserves.

However, that's not the point, that's not why he was transferred, the reason why he was bought was the fact that he is a world famous player, possibly the greatest football player of all time, either him or Messi, that's %100 sure, and they got him! That's amazing for them. Just look at this topic, didn't existed before Ronaldo, getting to 40 pages soon in less than 2 months.

That an interesting article. CR7 would not have thought that he would shift to an arab country and would have a lasting impact on the  history of soccer
ROnaldo is a champion and he will remain champion for ever. I have read the article you have mentioned in the link and it is interesting that presence of CR7 has ignite the interest of the fans in the league.

I have a feeler they will get Messi too - since he is near his retirement too.
The fame and money they got after having Ronaldo might have brought to their mind they should get big players as well.
