Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

To end this speculation, here's what Mane's manager said: Sadio Mane’s manager denies rumored move to Saudi Arabia

It has been said that Chelsea wasn't on their options either but Mane's transfer is already rumored because Bayern might not able to allocate all the forwards in the team because they are on the hunt and the thing is, Mane's camp aren't even denying that. So, it did seems that it will all happen this summer. Meanwhile, Manchester United remains steadfast and shows their interest to acquire Mane.

So basically everything might look certain after Bayern Munich got Harry Kane. Because if he comes to Bayern Munich, it is possible that there will be more Bayern Munich strikers and there is an option to sell if they judge that the player has failed to make a big contribution to the team. Al Ahli is the front team that can get Sadio Mane, but it depends on Mane whether he is ready to leave the European stage or still wants to stay in Europe next season.

For now Bayern Munich probably won't think about Mane or the offers that have come their way regarding Sadio Mane. Bayern Munich have been more preoccupied with the Harry Kane transfer saga as Bayern Munich have made a second bid increasing their bid to €80 million plus add-ons.

A few days ago I saw some news that some Saudi teams want to hire Buffon while he is still under contract with his team Parma and he left other teams to play there and get retired from the team where he start his career but according to some news, he was absent in the training cap and this can maybe a good reason to say he is getting closer to leave his team to the Saudi teams.
However, the Buffon we know, respects his team and he won't join Saudi teams even for the money he can earn there.

Saudi's offer is very interesting but buffon shall aware if he is an old guy right now. It will be far better if he can enjoy his life without getting big pressure. Buffon can announce his retirement as soon as possible to make everything clear.
He will not accept saudi's offer consider his age is not young again yet there's no confirmation came from buffon. I hope buffon is gonna retire and enjoy his life. It has been a very long time since he was playing at the top of his performance in serie a.
Buffon needs to think about that. He must think about his condition. He can't force his heart to work even harder. His health is not the same as when he was young.

[Volgastallion]

For the only thing i want to see Bufon going to Saudi Arabia and playing its to reach the finish of the contract with 47 years and after that he make a renewal and reach the 50 years old playing at some good level, he can be the first one to reach that age and still playing.

I know in Japon one guy still playing with 58 years but i dont know how much he play.

Let's see how it will be going on. Buffon is confusing now to determine which decision shall be taken by him. Retirement is not good enough for him consider his age is old. Saudi's offer is not that bad on his age right now. Buffon can still make a lot of money.

His age is affective his performance. Buffon becomes less responsive. Buffon shall not take the wrong decision. It will be bad for him if he take wrong decision.

It is too soon to talk about it with Buffon. With his postion, goalkeeper, and his professionality, he will be able to play very long and till 50s is possible if he want. He must accept to sacrifice his time for family and to play at lower quality leagues when he gets older. If he accepts such things, he will be able to prolong his career further into his 40s and maybe his 50s.

I know in Japon one guy still playing with 58 years but i dont know how much he play.

He is King Kazu Miura who was a most successful Japanese football player before Hidetoshi Nakata made his good career in Europe in 1990s and 2000s.

His full name is Kazuyoshi Miura.

New rumour recently appears that Paul Pogba was into Arabian clubs radar and reported his agent Rafaela Pimenta has went to Saudi Arabia to talking about this transfer although Pogba himself has been refuse this rumour because he still not interested to playing at Arabian Pro League but Juventus will thinking possibility to sell him if a good offer comes to them especially Juventus still needed money to gets more players to strengthen their squad

We all know Pogba has come to Juventus with free transfer status from Manchester United and he is expected to play well like he did before but long term injures has been ruin his performance that last season Pogba only playing 10 times and he hasn't give any significant contribution for Juventus so it's normal if Juventus want to sell him although probably he doesn't want to playing at this league but maybe huge money will change his decision and Juventus this summer was aiming Sergej Milinkovic-Savic from Lazio so if this transfer happened Milinkovic-Savic will be threaten Pogba position on the squad

If i were silva and it will be so hard to reject saudi's offer.

Bernardo Silva is being offered three times his Manchester City salary to move to Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal, sources have told ESPN.
Silva earns around £150,000-a-week ($191,205) at the Etihad Stadium but he is being tempted to move to Saudi Arabia with a deal worth closer to £500,000-a-week.

I think that anyone will be also thinking the same as what saudi offer to him is far above what already received by him now. I think that manchester city is also trying to make sure silva gonna decide what's gonna be his future.
Silva must try to take a decision as soon as possible. It's hard to determine his future. I can understand if that was a very big amount of salary offered by saudi club.

The decision is in silva right now. City is only trying to push him to take the decision as soon as possible. City is not also under pressure to sell silva to the saudi club. I remember when pep said that if he is willing to see some important players to stay.

Is it possible that the Saudi Pro Liga is targeting audiences from Italy?, because he is one of the Italian players who is quite famous even though he is old and currently only plays in Serie B, because to be honest his age is no longer supportive for a club that wants to compete to become champions in the Saudi Pro League moreover, the salary offered will of course be very large and could be bigger than what Buffon got from Parma, so an offer from one of the Arab League clubs certainly has other targets because the Arab League is not only targeting to be more competitive but also famous and attracting many viewers on televised broadcasts of their matches are certainly one way.
But from the rumors circulating he hopes to retire in Italy so it is possible for him to refuse the offer even though the money offered can be very tempting and retire with a lot of assets of course the hope of many players

Currently it is indeed a serious conversation when a player is in Arabia and it is always associated with the Saudi league team in the end. However, some of the European star players are also Muslims, so their arrival to Arabia is of course for worship and not for talks with the Saudi league team. I think Paul Pogba felt quite guilty about his arrival last season which did not make a good impression on Juventus and therefore he chose to stay at Juventus to complete his responsibilities as a player after recovering from injury.

But if there is an offer from a Saudi league team for Paul Pogba it will be realized next year and for now he has no doubts about being part of the Juventus squad. Regarding the rumors of Savic, I think he is much better than Pogba at the moment and he could replace Pogba next season and make him have to wait his turn to play from the bench.

If i were silva and it will be so hard to reject saudi's offer.

A dilemma for Silva with a big salary or continuing career in Europe with Manchester City.

I think that anyone will be also thinking the same as what saudi offer to him is far above what already received by him now. I think that manchester city is also trying to make sure silva gonna decide what's gonna be his future.

The decision is in silva right now. City is only trying to push him to take the decision as soon as possible. City is not also under pressure to sell silva to the saudi club. I remember when pep said that if he is willing to see some important players to stay.

The Saudi League club's offer is more than twice the salary in Europe if the players choose money then the right choice is to move to the SPL, who will not be tempted by this offer of course a player wants a high salary but it must be thought again because it is not playing in Europe anymore.

The scenario that Bernardo Silva takes chooses an Arab club then he will be famous there but to return to Europe will be very difficult considering his age will not be easy anymore, maybe for now he is still productive with his performance now even starting Manchester City but something that Pep Guardiola hopes to stay.

I don't know if he will make a decision in the near future?

Players who have a sense of loyalty and thankfulness are not very common and in the case of Pogba staying at Juventus Turin because he thought he has to fulfill responsibility is questionable to say the least. Pogba in particular is a guy who is after the money and would go wherever the most is offered to him at least within Europe. When he was injured the reason for him to stay was that he had a good contract in that moment and that nobody was really interested in signing him for the same salary. Of course now he would say that he stayed because he loves the club... It's always the same. Benzema also said he loves Real Madrid, one day later he was gone to Saudi Arabia.

[rendravolt]

Al-Hilal is again targeting other European players and this time their target is a Lazio player, Sergej Milinković-Savić. It is reported that Al-Hilal has made an offer worth 40 million euros to be able to bring in Sergej Milinković-Savić from Lazio this summer and it is not long before the two parties will reach an agreement. Apart from that Al-Hilal is just waiting for the green light from Sergej Milinković-Savić for now and for sure Sergej Milinković-Savić will really agree to this transfer if the salary per season is also very large for him.

Lazio will surely be very happy if they get fresh funds of that size and they can spend it again to find replacements or buy players according to the club's needs. It looks like this will be another success for Al-Hilal having previously managed to get Ruben Neves and Kalidou Koulibaly.

Today is the 1st week for Gerrard as coach of Saudi Arabian Club Al-Ettifaq, Steven Gerrard has started targeting players to fill his squad. The first Gerrard target  is Henderson. The player who currently still has 2 seasons remaining on his contract with Liverpool, so far there is still no news on how much the transfer fee will be proposed by Gerrard, but if this is successful, the Arab League will increasingly be filled with players from the top European leagues, after previously Kante who had joined with Al-Ittihad. Ronaldo makes Arab as the new home for old players from Europe

Pogba couldn't perform well in the last season for Juventus and they could play in many games for his team also Pogba is getting old and since he is 30y old he is getting near to end of his career, especially with the bad performance we saw from him recently. That's why it is not surprising to see the news is true and now Pogba is planning to be in the Saudi leagues for the next season.
If he joins the Saudi teams Juventus can also save a good amount of money.

Considering he is doing fine at City right now, that's the difference and he has no reason to leave. I am not saying what he was offered wasn't a lot, of course he was offered a lot but the reality is that if you got offered from a club that you did treble with, why leave? Not a lot of people would leave a club like that and I believe he will stay. Of course he may prefer money over success and he could still go if the offer is too big for him to turn down but I would understand it if he doesn't accept it neither.

If we were talking about a player from any other team, I would understand the situation but by the looks of it he is going to stay with the team that won UCL, and they are looking quite amazing at the same time as well.

Its hard to turn down this kind of offer, when you have already won every important titles in Europe, Bernardo Silva  is an important player in Pep Guardiola's squad. But if we wants to leave ,Pep has his replacement already. It's obvious Manchester city won't let him go, they can't lose him and Gugdanson this season. The two player makers can not leave in the same season. As you said, is left for him to decide. Because this offer is tempting.

-snip-

Mane 31 years including old players it is the average age of players who go to the Saudi League I mean European players, other indications can be seen from the market value that continues to decline compared to last season decreased from €60m and now €25m imagine if Munich holds Mane until next season is expected go down to 15m-20m so actually if the offer from the Saudi League is true then it is the right moment to release it before he goes as a free transfer because the contract will expire in 2025.

I remember what made us sure that Sadio Mane would move to Saudi Pro League was when Transfermarkt published rumors + includes local media, 3 clubs from this league are interested in bringing it but we forgot that it was rumors, until finally Sadio Mane's agent confirmed there was no offer    

Yes sir, 31 years is the average age of European players who join the Saudi League. Regarding Mane price it continues to fall because his performance at Bayern Munich is not very good for a striker like Mane, also maybe the incident Sadio Mane punched Leroy Sane which triggers the price of Mane further down. Could be the right decision, but also not. Because although Mane price has dropped dramatically, next season it might be able to increase again, if Mane shows good performance for Bayern Munich.
But it seems that the Bayern board doesn't really like Mane, because last season he was not as expected so I'm not too sure he will stay at there, and there is still a possibility he will join the Saudi League. Although Mane agent confirmed there was no offer from club in this league but this summer transfer window is still open

A few days ago I saw some news that some Saudi teams want to hire Buffon while he is still under contract with his team Parma and he left other teams to play there and get retired from the team where he start his career but according to some news, he was absent in the training cap and this can maybe a good reason to say he is getting closer to leave his team to the Saudi teams.
However, the Buffon we know, respects his team and he won't join Saudi teams even for the money he can earn there.

Saudi's offer is very interesting but buffon shall aware if he is an old guy right now. It will be far better if he can enjoy his life without getting big pressure. Buffon can announce his retirement as soon as possible to make everything clear.
He will not accept saudi's offer consider his age is not young again yet there's no confirmation came from buffon. I hope buffon is gonna retire and enjoy his life. It has been a very long time since he was playing at the top of his performance in serie a.
Buffon needs to think about that. He must think about his condition. He can't force his heart to work even harder. His health is not the same as when he was young.

To be honest, I rarely look for information or watch the Italian League. unexpectedly, this legendary goalkeeper still exists today. I tried to find some information and one of them, as reported by The Sun, Buffon has attracted interest from a Saudi Pro League club who did not want to reveal the name of the club. the club has offered a contract of 25 million Pounds, per year to this legendary goalkeeper.

Rumor has it, Buffon is weighing his options. Previously, it was believed that Buffon was planning to end his career as a footballer in an extraordinary way. Buffon could have finished his contract period at Parma, another option is that Buffon can retire now. and another option that Buffon can take is to leave Italian football and join one of the four clubs owned by PIF.
what exactly are they planning, I'm quite confused. but despite all that, all decisions rest with the legendary goalkeeper. nonetheless, it will be very interesting to see if Buffon is interested in joining the Saudi club. although, actually I also better hope that this legendary goalkeeper ends his career.

Ronaldo makes Arab as the new home for old players from Europe  

Yes, agree with you Cristiano Ronaldo became the first star player to open the gates to the Saudi Pro League, this does not mean that former European elite players did not play there before. But more to the influence of Ronaldo's existence in the League makes us find out more about them. And of course Ronaldo's reason for moving there is something that every football connoisseur must know.

Gerrard looks like he will need a number of players like you mentioned, maybe Henderson will be difficult to bring in from Liverpool and of course the price is very expensive. Gerrad wants his former partner in the team because they have a strong chemistry while defending Liverpool together. It is possible that the presence of Steven Gerrard in the coaching position will make it easier for the Club to recruit star players from various world's top leagues such as EPL. For coaching style and tactics I think he will change a lot of things the weather factor is one of them.
