Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

I agree with you that at the club level, Mahrez has achieved everything. Recently, he won the UEFA Champions League for the first time with Manchester City. It appears that Guardiola prefers to play Bernardo Silva over Mahrez. The tactical mastermind seems to favor players who can be deployed anywhere on the field or versatile players like Silva, while Mahrez is more dominant when played as a right winger.

Considering Mahrez's age, nearing 33 years old, I believe it would be best for him to start a new chapter in the Saudi Arabian league if there are official offers coming his way. Sooner or later, it will become challenging for Mahrez to compete with younger players. Instead of being a backup for others, it would be wiser for him to accept a lucrative salary and enjoy full playing minutes by joining one of the Arab league teams.

Mahrez has passed his heyday in the highest caste by winning several prestigious titles, most recently he won the Champions League Trophy with Manchester City. I think it's time for him to seek a new challenge with a club that can guarantee him a place in the first team, he has been in and out of the City line-up and has always been on the bench. I think it's time for him to seek a new challenge with a club that can guarantee him a place in the first team, he has been in and out of the City line-up and has always been on the bench.

Guardiola has put more faith in Bernardo Silva ability which kept Mahrez on the bench in the FA Cup and Champions League finals and left out of the starting line-up in the quarter-finals and semi-finals of European competition. He will pay more attention if he plays in the Arab League with a guaranteed first place, the salary factor also needs to be considered to raise money during his career there.

Firmino is very close to join in al ahli. I think that he will be agreed to join in the club. It's better for him to play in saudi league as there will be so many superstars to come soon. I hope that firmino will not be wasting this golden chance to play for al ahli.
As reported by romano if al ahli already prepared medical test to anticipate if firmino will be giving green light to play in al ahli.

I hope that firmini will not be stupid enough to miss this chance. It's better rather than play for a mediocre club with small salary at this moment.
Al ahli has been giving him huge offer which is very worthy for him to play in saudi pro league as soon as possible. It's the time for him to shine again. Fi

I think this is the best option for now for Firminho after leaving Liverpool and there's no harm in trying a new league for next season. Al-Ahli was very good at taking advantage of a moment like this to be able to sign one of the Liverpool legends in the summer and it looks like that will happen soon if there are no other obstacles that make Firminho think again. With this, Firminho will team up with former Chelsea player, Eduard Mendy, who has previously made an agreement with Al-Ahli.

Firmino would be huge as he is one of the most underestimated players if you look at his performances for Liverpool and that he wasn't part of the first eleven often times. When you say it is about trying out a new league, I doubt that this is what drives any player who is going to the Saudi Professional League. They aren't going there to try out the league, they are going there to bag hundreds of millions.

With the level of attention and publicity the Saudi Arabia league is getting currently, it will be very difficult to refuse a contract from the league. Also, the pay the clubs offer is far above what the players based on their age and level of performance will get anywhere in Europe. The Brazilian forward is 31 and has had a flourishing football career, so moving to Al-Ahli as a free agent will be more profitable. The club is currently waiting for Firmino's response which will pave the way for his medical. He still had the option of returning to the Brazilian league because there has been some interest from there.

There is nothing attractive about the Saudi Legaue for now except the money. Most of these players are winding up their football career and SPL provides the opportunity of retiring wealthy enough to live a comfortable life. But as the league develops players might consider moving there to experience quality football. But this will happen only when the Saudi football association makes use of this uncommon opportunity.

After decide not to extended his contract with Liverpool Firmino was linked to several clubs such as Juventus and Real Madrid but seems this is only a remain rumour because those teams weren't made a movement to get his signs and besides that Firmino also has got the offers from several Brazilian teams but until now he hasn't decide yet which team will he choose

And recently Al Ahli came with good offers and i am sure if Firmino accept them and the salary will be higher than when he was joining with Liverpool and this summer Firmino hasn't gets many offers from european teams although some of Premier league want to used him but Firmino has been decide not to accept them because he was respect to Liverpool and the offers from Al Ahli will not come twice so Firmino should be carefully to decide whether he will accept or not however Al Ahli is promotion team apparently they were really serious to strengthen their squad and Firmino could be good recruitment for them

[asriloni]

I see that Mahrez has quite a chance to join the Saudi Professional League, personally he has reached the highest level in Europe having won the Champions League as well as several titles in the domestic league. Even though the contract is still active until 2025, if you get a suitable offer, Manchester City certainly won't mind letting him go, but with a note that Manchester City also don't lose Bernardo Silva.

Mahrez has been rejecting saudi's offer. It's now real madrid that is trying to approach him again. I remember that if madrid has been competing with PSG last yer to get him but madrid was failed to get him.
I guess madrid is now getting interest to get him from manchester city again but as per his statement if he wanna stay in manchester city even longer. That means if the chance for him to leave from city is pretty small at this moment.
His contract is still long and it seems like that mahrez wanna try to stay until his contract will expire next season. Manchester city has become strong candidate to win UCL again next season with almost same squad.
Mahrez has become a great combination with haaland. He was able performing perfectly last season. That's why i don't think he consider to leave from city in summer.
He will stay in city for next season.

Lets no bother more about Firmino to Saudi Arabia pro league, because there is no serious clubs in Europe, they are interested in him at the moment, the only option he has now is to join the Saudi Arabia pro league now, this league is a hot cake for players now, Ronaldo must be respected for this influence he as brought into the league. Al Ahli are serious in the market right now, the money is there for them to buy any players at the moment at new promoted club. Firmino should just join them, the league is attractive and competitive now.

I think Firmino will leave the Premier League now. His next stop could be Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabian teams, which paid huge salaries and collected world stars, have already made the league the best league in Asia. Now, some Saudi teams have enough quality squads to compete with other strong teams in the world. It seems that the Arabian league will attract more attention this season.

Many players have started leaving the Premier League, La Liga and moving to the Saudi League because they are playing for a Saudi club.
Firmino seems to have been tempted by the Saudi club's offer so he decided to leave Liverpool and move to Saudi.
He is a pretty good player this season when strengthening Liverpool to play in the Premier League.

It is possible that Firmino will also be a star in Saudi next season and there will be many interesting matches in the Saudi League.

I don’t blame Guardiola for leaving out Mahrez and play Bernardo Silva more often than him, they are both good players and it’ll be very hard for to decide who to start with and make amongst his first team line up. Amidst all that, he never gave Mahrez opportunity in the first team again which is very detrimental to a player of his caliber.

It’s now time for him to move on and join a team that’ll guarantee a position in the first team, it’ll improve him and could be amongst the best players in that league. Mahrez already won some trophies in Europe, I’m happy he’s joining the Saudi league and I’m optimistic that he’ll bond with them easily there and continue his career there.

Saudi Arabia's professional league became extraordinary after Ronaldo's arrival. They become the new attraction of star players who start in retirement. Perhaps another attraction is the incredible amount of salary. At the moment I only know some players in the Saudi Arabian league including Benzema and Ronaldo. There are also Cristian Tello, Ever Banega, Santi Mina who have played for clubs in La Liga. Perhaps Benzema's arrival in the Saudi Arabian League will shift the goal of players at mass retirement age not only to MLS in the US.

But since Liverpool continued to experience difficult times last season which eventually made his name rarely get minutes to play so his time ran out on the bench. Firminho is a top striker and he can be a good example for a saudi league team in the future. It is true that most European players come not because of the league but more than that which can make them happy without having to work hard for many seasons and that is indeed the main attraction for players as well as to try new things in new leagues that have never been exposed to before.

It is true that currently the Saudi Professional League has gained a lot of popularity only because of the world famous stars signing their clubs. Ever since Cristiano Ronaldo joined the Saudi club for an incredible salary in Saudi Arabia, they have had a massive following. Especially a few days ago, Karim Benzema joined the Saudi club after retiring from Real Madrid. And since Karim Benzema came to the Saudi club, Arab clubs have become more popular. But there are other players who have been in much better firms before. However, the way the Saudi Arabian League has started to bring stars to their clubs, they will definitely be able to reach a better level in the future.

Firmino is not underestimated at Liverpool, the club has always believed in him even though he rarely gets a place in the main squad. He not that he was never trusted to be part of the 11 players who played in the early minutes, Firmino was once part of Liverpool deadly trio with Mane and Moh Salah.
Firmino name is very well known in football circles, he has also been part of the Brazilian national team, he doesn't need fame anymore by moving to the Arab League. Believe it or not, a lucrative salary is the main attraction for any player, whether they are approaching retirement or not. It is very difficult to refuse a tempting salary offer, especially for players who have passed the age of 31 and above.

He is a top striker but I expected him to stay in Europe for at least a year or two. Since so many clubs are currently looking for a striker and Real Madrid even signed Joselu as a backup plan, Firmino would have been a much better choice in my opinion. But no matter what any European club would have offered him, if he wants to make big money the SPL is the way to go now and that is what he decided to do. But in terms of his quality he could have stayed in Europe without problems.

Agreed, but he has been taking a decision to join in al ahli. I remember if juventus and intermilan have been showing interest in him. Firmino could pick one from either of clubs but firmino is choosing to join in the saudi club rather than try to pick one between juventus and intermilan. Im sure if he is still having capability to play a bit longer in european league but it seems to me if firmino wants enjoy his life by playing with fewer pressures and big salary. It's firmino's decision. Leaving from liverpool has been giving him emotional impact to determine which club that will able to sign him as a new attacker. Waiting for official confirmation from al ahli about him. The negotiation is still running but firmino has not yet said yes for al ahli's offer. I expect the news will come very soon.

If the news is true, then Al-Ahli will most likely be able to compete for the title in the Arab league.
More and more clubs in this League are bringing in top Europa players, apparently Ronaldo's journey in this league is getting harder. Interesting indeed but maybe not for Ronaldo, before that Ronaldo and Al Nassr did not get the SPL title and unsuccessful in Final Saudi King Cup, maybe in the next season their chances of getting the title will be even smaller. Al Nassr must bring back many Europa players to strengthen their squad, if not I doubt they will get any title in the new season.

At the moment, Arab League clubs are still competing to get other top European players, even though they are not young anymore, but the salary offer is quite promising, so that has attracted a lot of interest from players.
Last season only Ronaldo was a star in the SPL but for the next season there will be more stars and this will of course be even more competitive while many European players are coming, Al Nassr did fail to get a trophy but they have now added new strength again with the arrival Hakim Ziyech added that their attack was even stronger. I believe this will attract more interest, including from the betting market.

[Leviathan.007]

Marcelo Brozovic is another player who is near the Arabian teams and Al Nasr is trying to hire this player for the next season also Xavi asked his team to hire Marcelo Brozovic for the next season, it seems like the Saudi teams got more money, and better situation to buy this player.
While Marcelo Brozovic couldn't play a lot this season because he was injured.
