Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

The bad news for Ahl Hilal is about Neymar and it seems he is still injured and there is a chance for this player to be absent for a few days in Al Hilal which can have a negative effect on this team however after Neymar join Al Hilal the fans were happy to see this superstar player in their teams and there was a positive atmosphere in the teams, also I think Neymar can have a player like Aleksandar Mitrović as forwards for Al Hilal which can make this team to have very strong forward for this season.

I also read this rumor from a local newspaper, which reported that Neymar could not make his debut with Al Hilal due to injury. As reported, Neymar may have to wait until September to make his debut with the Al Hilal team. Al Hilal coach, Jorge Jesus said, Neymar is an innovative and creative player who will help the development of his team. however, due to the delay in his debut due to his current injury, Jorge Jesus hopes Neymar will be ready for action in mid-December. He made this statement after the welcoming ceremony for Neymar at the King Fahd International Stadium.

Jorge Jesus also stated on the occasion that Neymar has a slight injury now and I don't know when he will be back. it is likely he will be ready to "play" in mid-september, as Jorge Jesus has said. well, I'm a little surprised and wondering, before that Neymar had played in the pre-season match with PSG. In fact, he scored two goals in that game. then the question is whether Neymar has not fully recovered from his injury. that is also why, I wonder, why Neymar was not on the other list when Al Hilal played against Al Fayha. but at least, now Al Hilal has Aleksandar Mitrović who can be relied on by Jorge Jesus.

It is not worse news from Neymar for Al Hilal because he will be older and more sensitive with injuries. He will be like Bale after his 30s and Neymar is very unprofessional with his lifestyle which can make his body more sensitive with injuries.

The transfer to Saudi Arabia where is abundant of entertainment services will give Neymar more chances to enjoy his life. In return he will less focus on football and more injuries, less appearances, worse performance will come with time. Ah Hilal did not sign a long contract with Neymar and perhaps they will wait the first contract expires before considering to sign a new one with Neymar.

Injury is a normal thing that happens to every player regardless of their activities outside the game, but we know that in every player transfer there will be a medical test if the player is a big risk then the club will not sign him like what happened to Hakim Ziyech so if we compare Neymar and Ziyech, Neymar still deserves to continue the contract besides the injury is not too risky so it is expected he can play in the near week. It would be better to wait for him to be really ready than forcing himself to play but in an unprepared condition especially the fans have been waiting for the action in the first match of course they don't want to see a bad impression in that first match.

By the way, did anyone watch the welcome of Neymar and the other players last Saturday? I watched it on YouTube I must say it was one of the most memorable welcomes, I know they want to emulate what Al Nassr did when they welcomed Ronaldo and it's really awesome. To this day I see the local news continues to publish news about this it even made headlines in sports news. The most important thing is that the competition between players must be more interesting than this welcoming event however the expectations of Al Hilal fans are so high on Neymar.

[rendravolt]

Aymeric Laporte will be Al-Nassr's next newest recruit and he will be contracted until 2026. He was brought in from Manchester City for a total of 30 million euros and we know that Al-Nassr has had a bad defense lately so they often concede goals. The presence of Aymeric Laporte is certainly expected to strengthen Al-Nassr's defense, especially since he is an experienced defender who also led Manchester City to win the treble winner last season.

It is good news for Al Nass fans, Laporte joined the club at the right time. I agree that Al Nassr defense is weak, they already got 4 conceded goals in the first 2 games of this season. We expect much with the arrival of Laporte, he should strengthen Al Nassr defense. If there is no change in Al Nassr defense, the problem may be not on the players but how the coach to choose the tactics.

Even though Al-Nassr has a pretty good goalkeeper, namely Nawaf Alaqidi and even though he is only a temporary replacement for Ospina who is still injured, he has also proven his capacity so far. But indeed Al-Nassr's defense is so weak and they are also often easy to find loopholes, which is what makes it easier for opponents to break into Al-Nassr's goal. There is already Alex Telles and now there will be Aymeric Laporte and I think they still need a player who plays as a central midfielder. Seko Fofana, who previously joined Al-Nassr, is a central midfielder and even though he has a very tall stature, he is not too optimal to fill in as a defensive midfielder.

Neymar is often injured, if you read his injury history while at PSG, it can be concluded that his performance is almost balanced with the time off due to injury. In terms of skill, no one doubts this Brazilian National Team player, but Neymar was unable to make a maximum contribution throughout the season. I think this was also a factor for Luis Enrique no longer keeping him from leaving PSG, the club had to bear a huge salary burden, but didn't get what it needed to the fullest.

Al Hilal is proof that Neymar, who is paid handsomely, cannot make any contribution. Reportedly Neymar injury until December, doesn't this take half a season. But Al Hilal doesn't care about that I think, what is important for them at the moment is the big names of the players.

Neymar Jr is known for injury, which has affected his career in general. Signing Neymar to Al hilal with injury is not good one ,but I think the club is aware of the condition before signing him. When he returns the club will be glad.
He made a good sale for the club in the club representation, the club has made money from the jersey sales, and more of benefit.

I also see Al Hilal as one of the biggest spenders in this transfer market. They have spent nearly 200 million euros buying players, more than the top European clubs like Real Madrid, Chelsea, even PSG. Al-Hilal aims to conquer the Saudi Pro League 2023/24 with this lineup. I was also shocked when recently, they asked to buy names that are still at their peak, like Mbappe or Osimhen. Their bags can be called bottomless.

thats true and actually there are still a few more teams in the SPL that are spending large amounts of money to get European players who still have good playing qualities and some have been successful in getting them and this is all done not only to conquer the SPL but also have other goals to popularize the saudi pro league to become one of the biggest leagues in the world like the european league so teams from arab teams made large transfers because they had very clear goals. there have been many European players who have joined the Saudi Arabian team with a very high transfer fee and most recently Neymar was redeemed by Al Hilal for a fantastic amount even though in Europe no one has offered such a large transfer amount but Al Hilal has confidence that Neymar can become a competitor Ronaldo, who is currently at Al Nassr.
TBH, since many European players have moved to the Saudi Arabian team, I prefer to bet and watch matches from Arab teams and especially Al Nassr and Al Hilal.

The Saudi Arabia tournament doesn't excite me, even though they already have a lot of top stars. I only watch football news about this tournament. This tournament did not convince the fans. Maybe they should invest more in the quality of the game instead of taking the first step of promoting the game.
They need good tactical coaches, and they need players with good fitness. Fans of this kind of sport must see beautiful performances, Fierce Confrontations. It's not as simple as they are doing. Saudi Arabia needs more investment.

Yes, unfortunately Neymar injury make his career not good at PSG. I heard in local media he will be available in September, but if you are saying is true he will be available in December that is very bad. Although maybe Al Hilal doesn't mind his injury but Al Hilal really needs the services of a striker at least to race for the title, it would be very disappointing if he only played half a season.

I actually think there is another purpose that makes supporters shout Messi's name in this match. Do we remember in some matches always get the same treatment as in this match? when it happens, Ronaldo can answer the chant by creating goals and even make his club turn to win. I don't know if my observation is wrong or right, but I try to think positively about the supporters' treatment of Ronaldo and interpret it as I said above.
I do however agree that whatever the intention it was a bit disrespectful and shouldn't have been done.

You call it disrespectful but isn't Ronaldo the one who provokes the fans in a way that their reaction isn't surprising? How often did Ronaldo emphasize in his life that he is the best in the world and nobody else is as good as him and so on and so forth. Self-confidence is great, but communication can still be polite and charming and respectful. Ronaldo has never been known for being respectful. Now he gets what he deserves.

We don't have to argue about Ronaldo's attitude which is already widely known he is a player who has high ambitions that encourage him to behave like that. But his attitude is balanced with what he can do during his playing time, and I feel it is not wrong because he has shown hard work that makes him one of the stars in the world of football.

Sometimes in this case we also cannot see from one point of view only, but we must see as a whole or see from all points of view.

He has a mentality that is above other players, we have to see the good side too, how he motivates his teammates.

Lol you think he never had respect? Is that not wrong? How many fans is he now? Even quality players give him respect

I didn't say that others don't respect Ronaldo. I said that Ronaldo has issues to show respect to others because his ego stands in the way. It is a burden for him to name other players that can actually compete with him. He avoids at all cost to name players that are obviously very very good players besides him.

And when you say that he knows how to motivate his teammates, I think a lot of them are sick of him by now. The whole drama at Manchester United was so annoying for most of his teammates and there have also been rumors that the national team doesn't exactly like him very much as a person. His arrogance is sky high. If it happens on an exceptional basis, ok, but he is arrogant at his core. That's why Saudi fans are chanting Messi's name.

Neymar Jr is one of the most skilled player in the present age of football, his type is really rared. Unfortunately for the Brazilian, he have encounter critical challenges in his football career, which is injuries. The main reason behind his exits from Parc des Princes stadium this summer, the parisians started laying complaints about his inconsistencies in league games and severe injuries which greatly affected his performance negatively. However he moved to Saudi side, where he will gain regular playtime but he's currently injured and won't be available for games until he is healed.

Obviously, that ankle injury is a difficult injury to recover from. So it is not surprising, if Neymar is very often injured in that area. Playing in the Saudi Pro League, then maybe Neymar can play with a longer time, considering maybe the game in the Saudi pro league is not as hard as in Europe.

But somehow, I feel there is something that seems unfair about Neymar and Ziyech. Because from the information circulating before that, Ziyech failed to join the Saudi Pro League club because Ziyech was proven to have an injury or did not pass the medical. Meanwhile, Ziyech can still play normally in every match, and that is different from Neymar who is clearly injured and cannot even be included in the squad. But strangely, why Neymar can still join the club in the Saudi Pro League which in fact, Neymar also still cannot be played, while for Ziyech it is a rejection.

According to news from Fabrizio Romano, after Piotr Zieliński didn't reach an agreement with Al Ahli. Now this Saudi team is trying to hire another player and their next target is Rodrigo De Paul, the player of Atletico Madrid who has an effective role in this team.
Three years ago Atletico Madrid spent 40m for hiring this player from Udinese and he didn't have a good performance at the start of his contract with Atletico Madrid but right now he is one of the most important players in this team and that's why Atletico Madrid didn't accept the offer as we were expecting.

It could be that the recovery period for Neymar injury went fast, or there is a possibility that the club is trying to quell the disappointment of fans seeing that Neymar's debut took too long. I also read the news that Neymar has also been called up by the Brazilian national team for the World Cup qualifiers in September. Coach Al Hilal said that he was surprised by Neymar's summons to the national team, because for now as far as he knows Neymar is recovering.

So far Neymar has been sidelined for more than six months, I doubt Neymar will be able to recover in the next month if I see Coach Al Hilal reaction.

[Volgastallion]

Hahahaha yes this its one big thing to follow about Neymar, are we gonna see so much partys, and excuse of injury he is gonna make? I think yes and i also think this its not gonna end well between him and the jeques from Saudi Arabia.

If he was undiscipline in europe imagine here.

[jaberwock]

New players occasionally take time to adjust and develop chemistry with teammates. Despite Al Nassr's success in the Arab Club Champions Cup, it's possible that the victory had a different dynamic than victories in domestic league games. Al Nassr and the rest of the team will face crucial challenges in their upcoming matches against Al Fateh and the AFC Champions League play-off against Shabab Al Ahli. They have the chance to show that they can overcome obstacles, adjust to shifting circumstances, and draw on their prior experience to do better in subsequent competitions. There are numerous variables that affect a game's outcome, so it's crucial to keep your attention on growth and learning.

I am guessing that it is going to take a few more games until they all adjust, plus the manager is a new one as well as far as I can remember, so even the players that used to be there last year will end up with some trouble. I think the fact that they won the cup is definitely a big deal, a big story to talk about, but looking at their current situation I would have to say they do not look like a good team at the league.

If it's a new game and new players, it's new season for other teams they lose to as well and they still managed to win. Adjustment period is true and they will play better that's true, but other teams had adjustment periods as well. Lets wait, if they are still not good a month later, then it's going to be horrible.

But strangely, why Neymar can still join the club in the Saudi Pro League which in fact, Neymar also still cannot be played, while for Ziyech it is a rejection.

When I saw the news I was surprised as well because Hakim Ziyech injuries doesn't prevent him from playing but just that he doesn't get starting call up and that could be because he hasn't giving the managers enough reasons to start him but occasion he gets sub on and puts on a good performance but Neymar injury doesn't allow him to play so why then does Neymar pass the medical but Hakim Ziyech doesn't pass. I think what's happening here is the case of one player getting the fame privilege because Neymar will bring more money and fame to the league similar to Ronaldo as he's a global stars and from a country (Brazil) that has lost of football fans and he's one of the favorite but Hakim Ziyech is just an average European player from Africa so he doesn't get any favoritism.

some rumors say it is difficult for European players like Ronaldo and Mane to score because each player burdens these European players to always be given ball passes which pressures Ronaldo or Mane to score continuously and this in the short term is very bad because they feel very relied on even though other players have an important role to score not only Ronaldo and Mane.

hope that the next match Al Nassr will perform better and show Ronaldo performance which can contribute to Al Nassr.

The rumors are true because you can't have an experience player on your side and not expect him to always bail the club out of problem especially when that's what his reputation is built on and also receiving the kind of special treatment and salary they're receiving. Other teammates will expect the extra effort from them but they're humans and can't deliver every game as they're now old and not as young as when they were dominating Europe. The coach has to try another formation and bring on players that are hungry to pay and not those feeling it isn't their job to go the extra miles for the team. Al Nassr losing is a bad publicity for the branding of Ronaldo and something has to be done to improve the squad of Al Nassr, I don't think they're very active in the transfer window like other Saudi clubs.

Neymar still has an injury that hasn't been completely resolved and if Al Hilal wants to get Neymar's best skills or performance in every match at least wait until his injury can completely recover without the slightest problem, this is one of the reasons why PSG released Neymar so badly because he's been out of games more often due to injuries he's had every season.

When Neymar recovers and can play well I'm sure he can make a good contribution to Al Hilal on the front lines, because Neymar is a football star who has very good ball carrying skills and he is one of the players who is very skilled and agile in possession or carrying the ball past the opponent's defense.

@marcous the coach has indeed confirmed his debut will be in September and on top of that since he’s been called by the Brazil coach it shows that he’ll recover by September and once he does I expect him to score lots of goals as this league is easier than the Ligue 1. Also I don’t expect him to be injured much here as the demands of this league is less hence I believe that he’ll be able to maintain his fitness and help his team win many matches.

It sucks that any club owns him. PSG was indeed wise to sell him to Al Hilal quickly. In addition to paying a fee of 90 million euros for PSG, Al Hilal also offered a massive salary of 260 million euros for a two-year contract with him. Not a small amount. Neymar hasn't trained yet, and I see no reason for him to focus on Brazil. Al Hilal will feel unhappy about this. Although he is recovering from his injury, no one has said he will not be injured again if the damage continues. Then, most likely, the situation will get worse. The worst thing is not being able to play anymore.

It is going to be frustrating for Al Hilal. They paid a large sum to bring Neymar to Saudi Arabia and still they need to wait for one month more to see him in action. And this season of Saudi Professional League is already underway. Absence of Neymar is going to disrupt their team balance and put increasing workload on other forwards such as Aleksandar Mitrović, Malcom, Michael and Abdullah Al-Hamdan. Last year they finished at the 3rd place, and this time they want to win trophy at any cost. But Neymar's absence is going to have a large negative impact.

Neymar will be useful in the long run as it will be a short-term absence. Considering that other forwards are of good quality during this waiting period, the absence of Neymar will not cause major problems. Neymar will certainly add strength to Al Hilal when he joins the team. The evolution of the Saudi league is spectacular.
