Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[shogun47]

Al Hilal will attempts to buy Galatasaray player Nicolo Zaniolo that it say they are willing to pay 120 millions salary for 4 years and he has contract with Galatasaray until 2027 but this summer he was rumoured to moved from this team because reported Juventus are interested want to bought him from Galatasaray but apparently huge amount of salary which is offered by Al Hilal might be will tempting him to moved to Saudi Pro League and actually Zaniolo has arrived to Galatasaray on Feb this year but he has impressive performance and can able to help Galatasaray to get Turkish league title however Zaniolo is still 24 years old so he still have good potention to playing at european clubs and i think he should be thinking twice to accept the offers from Al Hilal

Saudi clubs are doing their best to improve their league. This is why they are bringing the world's best star players like Ronaldo and Benzema to the Saudi club. At the same time, the Saudi clubs are trying to take various young players from the world. Because they know very well that if the clubs improve, the Saudi national team will improve. They will become more experienced. Al Hilal is trying to move Nicolo Zaniolo to the team. Quite talented player Nicolo Zaniolo. But he is still young. And so Nicolo Zaniolo will probably try to go to a Serie A or Premier League team. If he can't move to a renowned team in the Premier League or Serie A, we'll probably see Nicolo Zaniolo at Al Hilal next season.

They are not bringing the best stay players to the Saudi Professional League, they are bringing players to the league who once used to be the best or one of the best, but are now looking for a big cheque to make their declining years taste even better. They are still far away from bringing the best players into the league who are in their prime time at the date of the transfer. Not sure if anything has ever become public, but I would like to know whether these Saudi clubs also tried their luck with players like Mbappe or Haaland and how much they offered them if they now came to Saudi Arabia Who knows maybe the managers of the players said no immediately when they received a first offer, but it would still be interesting to know if they tried it.

When players are getting older and may retire soon, I think they won't miss a chance to play in the best place where he can still play regularly and get good amount of money. In many cases, if the old players stay in Europe, they probably get a lower salary and smaller chance to play regularly. Most clubs will prioritize the players with ideal ages, the players who are above 35 like Ronaldo will be no longer the priority. Everyone must remember that Ronaldo became rarely play when he was still in Man United. It also experienced by other old players, they are not in a good situation. Now, Saudi offers interesting chance for them, we can't blame them if they move to SPL (Saudi Pro League).

Yes Sir, more or less like that ! The players will not miss a golden opportunity with a big salary and regular playing time. This league given a real big offer for old players, they appreciate players who have achievements with abundant money, which they hope can also be a good example for young players in Saudi. I mean young players can learn a lot from the great Europa players they have signed. For the future of the younger generation of Saudi footballers, this is quite worthy because if one day there are many young talented players in this league, I think then there will also be a lot of income in terms of player transfers.

[dezoel]

True, the aim of the saudi league is to become the most popular league in the world and they will not care about the harsh criticism from all those who do not like their way of attracting the attention of European players using money. Maybe no one would have thought that there were so many European players who were interested in joining the Saudi league team even though they could still be considered productive at their age and of course they had calculated well before deciding on their career here. Regarding the transfer market, there is still about 1 month left and that is still long enough for the Saudi league team to continue to bring in other European players. I think a big investment will also bring a big return and that is what the Saudi league is aiming for.

If these recently signed players do not demonstrate their most outstanding competence, the squad will undoubtedly suffer. The Saudi Arabian league would be a formidable and competitive competitor to European football. Saudi signing these tremendous names over, and checking the caliber of the players, it's pretty clear that they're not playing for the passion, love they have for the club, but rather for the money. Perhaps it's not such a bad notion; at the very least, they'd develop the desire to play for these Saudi teams with all their hearts, voluntarily giving their best performance at all times.

Right away having comparison between leagues is never been ideal because it's not going to happen with Saudi League is relatively new and just going through for their start with new players and have time to bring for competitiveness and European Leagues are without any doubt one of the best in world and their version of Champions League is amazing because it's dream of every top player in the soccer world.

As of now, Saudi League is going ahead for the better future and their first goal is having intention form the world about themselves as well as the competition and having better results in it's long run but here surely I agreed right now mostly players are going through for the money instead of quality or competitiveness because for this all we have to wait how things will be gone in near future.

An amazing journey of Saudi football by bringing in quality players and coaches. Yes, all their efforts are aimed at orbiting young stars to strengthen the National Team in the future. Their best moment as i can remember was when the Saudis beat Argentina 2-1 in the 2022 World Cup. Second after the game was over, Ronaldo made a new milestone by joining Al Nassr in the SPL.

I think these two things are the benchmark for us discussing the SPL today, the step to strengthen the SPL by recruiting former European players and former European coaches should be appreciated. Considering that besides making the League more competitive the Saudi State also gets various other benefits in various forms, such as increasing visitors to the country to watch their League.

I've almost forgotten about the Chinese League now because I'm enjoying following the latest developments in the Arab League, especially in player transfers. More interestingly, it's not just one, two, or 3 players, but they also bring in more than what I imagined. And it's not just one club doing it either, but those who have the money will not hesitate to hunt for players. Although there may be some players who are rumored and even I think it's a bit exaggerated with the price. But that's how a club with money does it. Lol

Haha we've forgotten about the Chinese League even one of the clubs is reportedly bankrupt, of course we don't want the same thing to happen to clubs in the Saudi League too pushy to bring in top players so that income does not match expenses, let's see how strong the clubs in this league are to bring in more top players. Reportedly 3-4 clubs in this league are owned by the same company which means all expenses will be financed by the company including 3-4 clubs I can't imagine how much money they have 

Many people have forgotten about Chines League but still miscalculating things as they are comparing them with the Saudi League here we have completely different conditions and visions as well for the both leagues here in Saudi League mostly clubs are control by just few companies which are having good support from the Authorities in this Kingdom which are working on for their vision of soccer world cup and surely as they are preparing things could be having big impact on many things for this.

Chines done few mistakes, and they lost their all big investments and now having few clubs near bankrupt but Saudi league is going on completely different way, and they could be developed their basic structure and also have good media intention as well which will bring good investment and people's interest which will help them for having world cup here with success.

[beerlover]

Talking about the money in the Arab League, personally I don't doubt their ability financially. Many of the clubs in Europe are owned by wealthy Arabs, so I conclude that they are financially well-established clubs. Although it is rumored that some clubs have debt, but in my opinion it is still in a reasonable category, because in fact the big and fairly rich clubs in Europe also have debt. As long as it is not excessive and still within normal limits, it is valid. What is clear is that most Arab businesses that have an interest in football are successful in their business.

I think it's not about the money but convincing issues. If you have to pay tens of millions of dollars (and in few cases over 100+ million) to convince a player to join your club, and paying 10x what others would pay, there is an issue at convincing that player.

Normally I would understand as much as double, so if a player was offered 5 million somewhere, and you offered 10 million and got him, that makes sense and I can understand that, but if he is offered 5 million and you paid him 30 million for example, that's not good, that's a bad business. They are 100% surely not making any profit at all, not that they need it because they are rich, but if they are not making a profit, then what's the point of having a business, it just doesn't make sense.

Yes, reportedly so but if so far these clubs are still safe, then of course they also do not violate financial fair play which is certainly a success for them. Indeed, I also previously thought that maybe only Ronaldo was willing to play in the Saudi Professional League and maybe, it would not make other clubs do crazy things like Al Nassr. But in the end, other clubs also have the same power to be able to bring in top European players and at least it is clear that the changes they make are not only done for popularity, but the changes made by these clubs are clearly to improve the quality of their football.

Haha easy to guess almost all of them would agree to move to this league when their career had finished in the Europa League and almost retired at the same time there was an offer to move with a high salary of course they can't refuse it, it is the right choice. but if the offer that can be made to a young european player is clear they reject it they prefer career over money, not only players even top coaches also refused to join. We'll see in the next 2 seasons whether the Saudi League continues to do this.

I would rather say the Saudi league are bringing in former best players who were at a time the best players to have played in Europe league. They’re not bringing in current best players who are still at their prime now, maybe they won’t want to join since they’re still valued at their teams and in Europe.

Even the addition of this past great players have added value to their league, I just imagine how many popularity and recognition the league will get more when young and talented players at their peak level joins the league.

At least, you should look for various news and information related to this discussion. I will explain a little, Al Nassr, Al Ittihad, Al Hilal, and Al Ahli, have been acquired by the PIF "Public Investment Fund" company which is under the auspices of the prince of Saudi Arabia, namely Mohammed bin Salman. This acquisition was carried out with a vision to advance and simultaneously improve football in Saudi Arabia.
PIF has a 75% stake in each of its clubs, this acquisition is part of the club's privatization and investment projects in Saudi Arabia.  PIF confirms that it will fully cooperate with the government of Saudi Arabia in this acquisition. they made sure, no rules were violated regarding club ownership.

In Europe's top leagues, there are rules that prohibit one person or party from having more than one club fighting in the same competition. The Premier League implements this, as well as the European Champions League. however, in Saudi Arabia, apparently this is not enforced. As a result, PIF can become the owner of the majority of shares in four big Saudi Arabian clubs at once. let's briefly review PIF, which also owns 80 percent of Newcastle shares, correct me if I'm wrong. PIF is a consortium of investors chaired by Mohammed bin Salman who is a Saudi Arabian prince and also the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In addition, PIF is the engine of Saudi Arabia's economic transformation which has a vision to become a global investor that has a significant impact on the global economy.

Well, now we come back to this discussion. it's very natural isn't it, if these clubs bring in a lot of top European players with the money they have. then, roughly, what is their purpose other than to promote football in their country. at least, you can assume with a little picture of where the project undertaken by the PIF and the Saudi kingdom is headed. and for sure, they will not be short on money to sign top players. in fact, this league has become a concern in the eyes of the world.

Well, as a young athlete who excels in this sport, you can surely expect that they will prioritize to pay in major clubs that can give them experience to become a much greater player that will excel more than the others and at that point, money will not be a priority as if fame will be with you, money will always follow. And that is also one of the reasons why most of the younger generations now are in Europe playing in the midst of their prime because that particular place is their ground to grow more.

And if you will become older, it is expected that they will start to resort something that will benefit them as a player and as a family fan. Joining Saudi League has been one of the opportunities for Ronaldo because he can still play with decent minutes, having a much bigger salary, and having a lot more time to his family at the same time.

For now you are describing the status quo and the younger high potential talents will try to stay and find their role within a top European club, but what if the Saudi Professional League keeps expanding their top player portfolio, is even willing to spend more money than they already are and in a next step try to establish their own kind of Champions League and subsidize it to a level that no other international competition can compete with? We are not there yet, but I wouldn't vouch for such a scenario being unrealistic. I think it is possible and it only needs some broadcasters who like the idea and show the league on the most prominent channels around the world. That is when the dominant role of European soccer will be at risk.

[Docnaster]

We'll see in the next 2 seasons whether the Saudi League continues to do this.

Undoubtedly, the factual truth is that majority of the European based players who's reached agreements to sign for these Saudi Arabian clubs are players that are above the age of 30 which in football is regarded as ending part of a footballers career.
That been said, I think there are still European based players who are in their 20s and was signed to the Saudi clubs. The management of the Saudi League knows what they really want and publicization of the league to World Football audience of one the their reasons which they're are achieving

Obviously the SPL will be a more competitive league next season because it's not just one team that has managed to get European players, several teams have even done this so there will be more interesting competition for us to see next season. So, in my opinion, Ronaldo and Benzeman are two players who have quite a big influence on the progress of the SPL next season.

In fact i think ronaldo and benzema will probably attract a large number of companies to join the SPL to do promotions as these two players are quite influential for now. Besides that, big profits will definitely come to them where they get it in terms of ticket sales or the broadcasting rights they get. Al-Ittihad is one of the most favored teams for next season and Al-Nassr is a pretty strong competitor for Al-Ittihad Club in the race for the trophy next season.

Yeah, Ronaldo was the first player that attracted the other European players to have that mindset on playing in SPL. Benzema did a sharp move and I know that he will bring more people to stay more focus on SPL. Ronaldo and Benzema are two world great players that have won good amount of trophies,this will even attract more professional players to see SPL and a league that will be a honour for them to play in. One beautiful thing is that they will appreciate your quality with a huge sum of money that most players will be tempted of.

Teams will never mind to pay good sum of money to the popular ones. It is all through them big business gets rolled. I don't have stats, but I'm sure that the business before the involvement of Ronaldo into Saudi Arabia Pro League and after his participation have very big difference. When more popular players make their participation this gonna make big business. Everything have got a calculation and based on the same will be the amount spent on players.

[X-ray]

Al Hilal will attempts to buy Galatasaray player Nicolo Zaniolo that it say they are willing to pay 120 millions salary for 4 years and he has contract with Galatasaray until 2027 but this summer he was rumoured to moved from this team because reported Juventus are interested want to bought him from Galatasaray but apparently huge amount of salary which is offered by Al Hilal might be will tempting him to moved to Saudi Pro League and actually Zaniolo has arrived to Galatasaray on Feb this year but he has impressive performance and can able to help Galatasaray to get Turkish league title however Zaniolo is still 24 years old so he still have good potention to playing at european clubs and i think he should be thinking twice to accept the offers from Al Hilal

Juventus will offers nothing for him. Zaniolo shall never try to pass an opportunity to get a lot of money rather than playing in juventus which is facing financial problem at this moment. He is a good player. that's why saudi club was targeting him as next super star to be recruited by the club.
Zaniolo is very young too. He can come back to the european league after he will be finishing his career before. it's very hard choice for zaniolo at this moment. His age becomes the main reason why arabian club priced him very high.
It's unlikely zaniolo gonna play for juventus rather than saudi club. Saudi's offer is far bigger compared with juventus's offer at this moment. Zaniolo must think about playing in a club that potentially get another sanction is a huge gambling.
IF he played professional football caused by money and he must try to take a look at such opportunity to earn a lot of money in a short time against arabian club.

Yes, along with the current developments in the SPL where the Teams from the Saudi Arabian league are still very active in recruiting many players in this transfer window. It's true that ronaldo was the first player to go there in last season's transfer window which could be followed by other players looking to continue their career in the SPL. For this reason, I think there will be more concrete steps taken by Al Ahli in this transfer window because the Al Ahli management is still quite active in making approaches with European players.

Mahrez is a player who has been widely reported to be joining Al Ahli. In fact Al Ahli progress in signing Mahrez is close to a unanimous agreement with Manchester city. I think if Mahrez is successful in getting to Al-Ahli, then the strength of the Saudi Arabian league team will be very competitive in the competition next season.

[cytpoway121]

I agree with you; also i believe that the Saudi League teams are also strategic in their attempts; they have gone after players who still have couple of years to play and also mixed the signings with young players such as Mendy and Neves. With Mahrez reportedly being tempted to move from Manchester city and Henderson + Fabinho touted to join as well. The league is building its reputation well.

In a few years; they will have quality young gems coming out of their leagues.

[asriloni]

Haha easy to guess almost all of them would agree to move to this league when their career had finished in the Europa League and almost retired at the same time there was an offer to move with a high salary of course they can't refuse it, it is the right choice. but if the offer that can be made to a young european player is clear they reject it they prefer career over money, not only players even top coaches also refused to join. We'll see in the next 2 seasons whether the Saudi League continues to do this.

They will be so difficult in finding a place that can give them huge salary like saudi clubs. that's why they were always accepting a contract from saudi clubs. The different thing with some people like messi which was accepting offer from intermiami and reject saudi club's offer. I don't even think if all of the young players gonna reject it. The chance for saudi's offer to be rejected will be very high but it doesn't mean all of them will reject it. As long as saudi club gonna offer very big salary and it may be enough to make them feel interesting to join in the saudi club. I think if all of players are still trying to calculate whether they will be accepting huge offer from saudi or not. It sounds non sense if the young player don't consider and calculate it.
