Football’s governing bodies in Saudi Arabia do not want the arrival of big names in their championship to be just a flash in the pan or a passing fad, especially given the current state of Chinese football.
For this reason, according to “Footmercato”, They have hatched a plan with surreal undertones.
Almost a year ago, Saudi Arabia made a sensational entry into the transfer market. Al-Nassr of the Saudi Pro League recruited Cristiano Ronaldo and Desert Football rose to the elite level.
The Portuguese has been free since leaving Manchester United and is the first major star to agree to take on this new challenge. CR7 is certainly at the end of his career, but he remains an exceptional player and a personality beloved around the world.
The perfect signing to highlight the Saudi championship and the Gulf state that wanted to organize a World Cup. This will also be the case as Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 World Cup.
Until then, the country wants to expand its national championship and for that it has Cristiano Ronaldo, but also Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kanté, Riyad Mahrez and many others like Neymar Jr. once he returns from his injury.
This winter, the Saudi teams want to continue to be very active in the “Mercato” in order to attract new stars for their goals, explains “Goal Arabia”.
To achieve this, Saudi Pro League clubs want to develop internal transfers and have come up with a pretty crazy plan this winter.
Under the leadership of Al ShababThe thirteen clubs in the Saudi league agreed to exchange contracted players who were not successful at their club. The idea is to give these footballers in Saudi Arabia a way out so that they don’t fail and keep the stars they sign, no matter what.
Therefore, The SPL wants to “turn its stars” or to its foreign players, as Arab media also report. We can imagine one iota no longer interfering in Al-Ittihad’s plans that has exceeded the quota of admitted foreign players per team. The Portuguese are followed by Tottenham, but could be affected by this revolution.
