Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[ajanwalker]

I think we will see Saudi League teams in European cups in the future. If the Saudis succeed in this, higher quality football players will come to the Saudi League at a younger age.
The guys have a lot of money because of oil and they do not hesitate to invest it in football.
I follow the league and the best quality foreign referees are currently playing in this league. I think we will see Arab teams in European cups in less than 5 years.

Cristiano's getting $204m each year playing for Al Nassr but ppl are saying he won't play for them again. His contract's expiring next month. He hasn't renewed a deal so which team's going to buy him ?

I don't know if the news I read on the Portuguese news channels is true, but according to the news channel I read, they say that Cristiano Ronaldo will renew his contract but that the agreement will be for him to earn 182.4 million euros per year, which would be 15.2 million euros... per month in salary.

But the source of the news doesn't say how long the contract will be and honestly, I don't doubt that these Arabs will do that, maybe they can even offer him more money than what the news channel is talking about, because we all know that without Ronaldo, this league will go back to being little known, so the Arabs really need Ronaldo and Ronaldo wants to continue playing and with a high salary.

Al Nassr is definitely an elite team that anticipates in winning trophies and will do everything within their reach to stay on the top.Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best players in Europe and also placing himself as a high standard player in SPL. What more can we attest to? Firstly, we should not believe or thrown ourselves for the media because there are so many untrue stories. Most of these football journalists and bloggers have time to post and attract traffic, there are more comprehensive links for them.

Information circulates the internet and we don't seem to agree with the whole idea of this scene about Ronaldo keen on exiting Al Nassr at the end of the season. We both are familiar with the target he's trying to accomplish and will do everything within his reach to make sure its a reality of 1000 goals tally.

Al Nassr defeated Khaleej 2-0 at home to increase their points to 67.The first half of the match ended scoreless and in the second half Ronaldo failed to take advantage of a penalty in the 65th minute.Jhon Duran scored the winning goal in the 75th minute and in the last minutes of the match Ronaldo took the ball again to use the penalty shot. This time Ronaldo converted the penalty to give his team a 2-0 lead and even decided the result of the match.Al Nassr need Qadsiah to lose points to finish 3rd in the league.Qadsiah will play Al Hilal Riyadh in the last week, so a draw seems likely in this match.Of course, Al Nassr must definitely beat Al Fateh.

Al-Nassr football team played very well in that match and that team did 2 goals in this match. Two players played crutial role in this match because opponent team could not do any goal in this match. Durán was a person who did first goal of the match and he did this goal at 75 minutes of the match and before we saw no goal by that team .  We saw no goal by players of Al-Khaleej Club team and they could not do excellent effort in this match and match was ended with one sided game . Ronaldo was a person who did second goal of the match and he did this goal at 97 minutes of the match when it was requirement of team and all team. Players did excellent effort in this match and shots of Al-Nassr team were more in number and possession percentage of that team was excellent in this match.

Cristiano's scored 935 career goals. He's 40 y.o but doesn't want to retire. If he leaves the SPL where's he going to play ?

It is undoubtedly true that his goal tally has already reached 935 but earlier this year we read in the newsfeed that he will be linked to the club until 2026. However there are already rumors that he wants to leave the club but no clear news has been presented on this matter yet, I mentioned before that he wanted to go to a Brazilian club but that's not entirely true. My guess is that even if the Manchester United manager allows him to move to the Saudi Pro League in 2022, the Al Nassr football team manager may not allow him to move to any other team.

He said sorry to Al Nassr fans after scoring the penalty because he missed the first.

Just a few days ago, against Al Khaleej, it was witnessed that Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty but later in the same match, he was able to correctly complete a penalty in extra time, maybe it was payback for his mistake.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Currently AL Nassr must focus on playing against Al Khaleej, statistically Al Nassr is better than Al Khaleej, Al Nassr is also quite strong when playing at home. This can be seen in the last 10 home matches, they only experienced 2 defeats when playing at home. So I will bet on AL Nassr's victory in this match, because for Al Nassr this match must be won.

You are absolutely right, at Al Nassr they have developed that sense of belonging , of Making their Home advantage respected, that is something I like, as for what you say I Would also like them to finish 3rd , but they have to win and win from now on everything they have left, I don't know , but for me Al Nassr needs to have 1st level defenses, it has been proven that a great forward line is no Guarantee of winning matches and competitions.

That news about Ronaldo wanting to leave Al Nassr for another club is false, there is no legit source that has talked about this after searching in various legit sites, and if you have a link, share to me.
Ronaldo is comfortable at his current club and Al Nassr too are good with him not only because of the contributions but also the revenue they're generating because of his presence in the club.  
It will be difficult to see another club willing to offer what Al Nassr is currently paying Ronaldo considering his age at 40, he will most likely retire in Al Nassr maybe after the 2026 world cup.

Al-Nassr team which defeated Al-Khaleej in a great way, was also great at home to increase their points and improve their standards because Ronaldo did not perform particularly well in this match, but in the very last moments, Ronaldo caught the ball and tried to score a goal. But since they have a good rhythm, if we look at their previous record, they have always played a good game and have good players. Their vision and strategy are very good for Al-Nasr team. But since their next match is going to be with Al-Fateh, I think the Al-Nassr team will have to defeat Al-Fateh to maintain their points surge, because only by doing so will they be able to maintain their record. if Al-Nassr keep playing on the previous strategy with their true devotions then definitely they will win

There is a lot of speculation regarding Ronaldo future, in my opinion it is very reasonable because it is triggered by Ronaldo contract with Al Nassr which will soon end. Most likely Ronaldo will stay, Al Nassr management is reported to have prepared a new two season contract for their star. Convincing Ronaldo to stay is the same as maintaining the existence and prestige of the Saudi Pro League.

Logically, there are only a few teams that dare to offer a luxurious contract for a player who is already 40 years old, because Ronaldo has a very big influence, Al Nassr will continue to try to make him stay. If a new agreement is reached, it is certain that Ronaldo will retire at Al Nassr. Ronaldo chances of playing in the 2026 World Cup seem very slim.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Many players who played with Cristiano Ronaldo talk about how hardworking and quality he is. He would do extra free kicks or shooting drills after training. Cristiano Ronaldo was always the first to arrive at training and the last to leave. It is inevitable for a player who loves to work so hard to be successful. He also wants success in Saudi Arabia but has never been able to achieve success at the club level. I think the fact that his other players are relaxed also plays a role in this. Yes, he didn't play well in every match but if he is still one of the best players on his team at the age of 40, I think we should all agree on his hard work.

That is very true , in fact we Sometimes have the belief that a Person of his age is Already old when in reality he is in his prime ,  you can not Compare the speed of someone of 20 with CR7, probably CR7 will beat the Young man of 20, then the method of CR7 is much more rigorous and therefore has good results, the envy of many does not leave or Admit that he is still a monster, the bad thing about AL Nassr is its defense that was always the Great Weakness that they never corrected.

At this point, I won't be surprised to see a contract renewal in the coming days considering the impact Ronaldo has had on the face and the overall league as well. I think he would just continue to play there for 2-5 years then retire while he's still at the top. He doesn't need any more drama by going to another club. I feel that ship has sailed.

We will see what will happen in the next days but getting an excellent wage + bonus in from of shares is an opportunity that might be unique and he will be the first one to do it as far as I know.
Al-Nassr main problem is returning back to the third place to give a good reason for Cristiano Ronaldo to stay since they will play AFC Champions League, otherwise they might not. The problem is Al-Qadisyah must lose against Al-Hilal which failed to win against a team near the relegation zone!

The club management wants to persist with the coach Stefano Pioli, while Ronaldo wants him out. From what I heard, apart from the topic related to the coach, Ronaldo has given a few more ultimatums to the Al Nassr management. But personally I am still optimistic about Ronaldo staying with Al Nassr for at least 2 more years.

Even if Al Nassr truly applied their previous strategies with integrity, they might not be able to achieve much fame now because in the previous match, they won against Al Khaleej through great competition and hardship. The current season of the Saudi Pro League may not last much longer, as we can see that there is already only one match left. When Al Nassr played in the home match, it seemed like Cristiano Ronaldo's body language was different after the match because I think he was probably embarrassed about missing a goal in that match. Al Nassr has already won the Arab Club Champions Cup, so I firmly believe they will touch this trophy again in the future.

Nothing takes away the fact that the performance of Al Nassr was pathetic in this season. No.3 position in the table would have been unsatisfactory, but now they are even behind Al Qadisiyah at no.4. They managed to win against the weak Al Khaleej by a margin of 2-0, but before that they conceded a draw against another weak team (Al Taawoun). Fans would be angry, and in the end this precipitates down to the players. Ronaldo might be reconsidering his plans to stay with Al Nassr, and we will get the confirmation soon.

[Pandorak]

You are absolutely right, at Al Nassr they have developed that sense of belonging , of Making their Home advantage respected, that is something I like, as for what you say I Would also like them to finish 3rd , but they have to win and win from now on everything they have left, I don't know , but for me Al Nassr needs to have 1st level defenses, it has been proven that a great forward line is no Guarantee of winning matches and competitions.

Since Cristiano Ronaldo move to the Saudi league, there have been many positive changes that we can see from the clubs there, Ronaldo not only brings a competitive spirit but also the motivation to make each club stronger, as evidenced by many clubs that have brought in European players to strengthen their clubs, because they know Ronaldo is not an ordinary player, even though at an age that is no longer young, his performance is still very good and proven to be able to compete with young players.

In the next match against Al Fateh, if we look at the statistics, the chances of Al Nassr winning are greater in this match, the potential for Al Nassr to be able to qualify in third place is greater than Al Qadisiyah, because we know their opponent Al Hilal is a very strong club, so this will be a match that is not easy to win.

Al Nassr will always been behind because they depend mostly on key players and forget to sort the current matters of enchancing the club with good names and not big names in Europe. Al Nassr have been completely hitting and thrashing clubs this season but not been able to win a trophy is definitely something to worry about don't you think? They've the desire players and still yet, they're unable to match up for the big winnings. Al Nassr will not comprehend decisions, they will always make good runs for big running and hitting streak winnings. Let's give them time and watch how the club will develop.

Wherever CR7 goes he is always the top scorer and wins trophies in the league, even at his old age he is still the top scorer in the SPL, and this season he will most likely return to being the top scorer in the SPL with a record of 24 goals. But unfortunately in the last 2 seasons with Al Nassr he failed to win the SPL trophy. Failing to win the title, maybe this is one of the worst steps in his career, even though with Al Nassr he gets a fairly high salary.

And unfortunately for this season Al Nassr will likely finish in a worse position, they are in 4th position in the standings, which is likely next season Al Nassr will only play in LCA 2.
With their failure to win the trophy this season, I am quite doubtful whether the mega stars still have enough confidence in the project built by Al Nassr.? Currently CR7 is at the end of his career, and people still hope that he will appear in WWC for the last time, meanwhile Al Nassr does not have a ticket to participate in the competition, so I think to realize this hope CR7 could move to another club.

Well, whether Ronaldo will remain at Al Nassr or leave remains to be seen. Like you, I think he would be staying because he has a much larger impact at Al Nassr than he will have at another club right now.  Of course, Al Nassr Management also needs to bring in other top talents that can collaborate and link up well with Ronaldo.

We will also see how things play out between Ronaldo, Al Nassr coach and the management in the next few weeks/months.

I know this rumor, Ronaldo wants a new coach for the next season. He may be unsatisfied with the way of Stefano Pioli managing the team. Or he has a problem with Stefano Pioli. So he expects to have a new coach. Well, Unless there is a big offer from other teams outside of Saudi league, I also think Ronaldo still has a chance to stay although Al Nassr keeps Stefano Pioli. Al Nassr actually has given everything to Ronaldo, he becomes the captain team and he is paid with huge money. Ronaldo can't ask too much on Al Nassr!

FYI, I heard a rumor that Ronaldo wants Ancelotti to manage Al Nassr. It will be great to see Ancelotti in Saudi league if it really happens. However, I think Ancelotti won't think about this for now. He must try to focus on Brazilian national team. It won't be an easy job to make Brazilian team be stronger.
