Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[QueenVera]

I tried to find the latest information regarding Neymar, especially as you said that Al Hilal was very angry with Neymar who never played anything else. unfortunately, I didn't get the information I needed. as far as I know, no player wants to suffer a prolonged injury like what happened to Neymar. after all, Neymar was injured while defending his Brazilian national team. so, what happened to Neymat was out of scenario. referring to past news sources, according to Saudi Arabian media, Arriyadiyah, Al Hilal will have Neymar back in its squad next season.  However, Al Hilal will remove the Brazilian star from the list to bring in other non-Saudi players. regulations state, that each league team can only have eight foreign players in the squad. it is very clear that Neymar will return next summer. even if there is other news, unfortunately I couldn't find it even though I tried looking for it in several searches. referring to transfermarkt, Neymar is still an Al Hilal player.

In fact, even without Neymar, Al Hilal is still very difficult for Ronaldo and his team Al Nassr to compete with. Al Hilal couldn't use Neymar's services much this season, but they still managed to maintain a safe distance from their rivals, Al Nassr. even though Neymar was absent for a long time, Al Hilal performed well because other stars were able to shine. Mitrovic was the player who shone the most on the front line with his 17 goals, and was only 3 goals behind Ronaldo. apart from that, Yassine Bono, Malcon, Milinkovic Savic, Ruben Neves and one of the local Al Dawsari players, could also be the backbone of the current Al Hilal team squad.

As for Benzema, I don't know exactly what the obstacles are in the Al Ittihad squad. however, it seems that Al Ittihad needs several newcomers, especially those who are able to support Benzema on the front lines. likewise with Al-Ahli, even though they are in 3rd place in the standings, the fact is that Firmino has not been able to show his capacity so far. currently, the Saudi Pro League competition is in a pause phase. and this is good for the teams competing in this League, to carry out evaluations.

Al Hilal got Neymar and Mitrovic because they trust their partnership and they needed both of their strengths to be able to surpass other clubs in the league. It’s unfortunate that Neymar got out due to injury and It’s a pity it turns out to be long termed. Both Benzema and Firmino haven’t been able to get their grounds yet but I think if their respective teams get some good signings from Europe to help on the strikers this will be a boost for the players and the team and make the SPL more competitive.

 Now he’ll have to be taken off the squad list so that the Saudi club can bring in a foreign player who’ll strengthen their attack for the 2nd half of the season. It’s so crazy that even without Neymar’s presence Al Nassr haven’t been able to catch up with them yet. Mitrovic has stood out and other European stars also making this team a class team.

I dont remotely think Son is gonna get out of european football, a total no chance, he is still a very high level also he is now bieng the number 1 of the team after the departure of Harry Kane so i dont see him going out until at least 35 years, and when he reach that age maybe he wants to return to south korea.

Saudi Arabia clubs are coming for big names. Since the departure of Harry Kane, it's been Son all along, he's been the main player that have received the major accolades in Kane's absence. Son is a vital player for Tottenham Hotspur and a key player under Ange Postecoglou project in the club. We have watch his performance and I would proudly say he's not going anywhere, it doesn't the hugh amount placed on the table for the Korean international, he's very active as a frontline for Spurs and numerous times, he delivered the club and a key player for the future of Spurs.

The worst and most boring part about Al-Hilal is how little resistance they experience from their opponents. Al Feiha didn't have one shot on target and during the full 90+ minutes they had two shots (not even on target though!). I don't know but this season will be a boring one and Al-Nassr disappointed a lot of those fans that were hoping for them to win the title. Ronaldo will probably score the most goals this season, but they won't have a chance to close the gap again and have a say in the fight for the title.

It indicated that the level of Al Hilal is above than their opponents. Al Feiha isn't the same level as Al Hilal, they are only a weak team in SPL. Moreover, Al Feiha is experiencing bad season, they performed very badly in the last few matches. Just look at the stats, they never won or got a draw, they were defeated in every match. Considering these matters, it is a bit impossible to expect a tough match against Al Feiha.

It is very likely Ronaldo to win the top scorer status this season. But Al Nassr surely will be difficult to win the title, the point gap is quite large and Al Hilal looks like in their best shape.

It seems like this match was going quite tough, with the defensive pattern implemented by Al Feiha with a 5-4-1 system. based on match statistics, Al Hilal controlled 73% of ball possession. in the first half, no goals were scored even though Al Hilal had 2 shots on target out of 7 total shots. 1 big chance, 1 hit the goal post. in this match it seemed like the match was going one way, seeing as the home team only had 2 total shots. in the second half, Al Hilal did not reduce the intensity of their game by continuing with an attacking pattern. in fact, it seems that Al Feiha was not given the opportunity to even threaten Al Hilal's defense or goal. looking at their statistics, Al Feiha didn't have any shooting opportunities.

Al Feiha played too defensively. It makes sense if Al Hilal controlled the match fully. Winning 73 the ball possessions clearly showed that Al Hilal did full attacks and Al Feiha just waited for in their area. Sure, Al Feiha defense is very bad, they are conceded 2 goals although they set 5 defenders. They totally failed to make difficulty for AL Hilal.

It’s so crazy that even without Neymar’s presence Al Nassr haven’t been able to catch up with them yet. Mitrovic has stood out and other European stars also making this team a class team.

If I'm not mistaken, Al Hilal wants to increase its slots for defensive players. but so far, I haven't heard any further development of this rumor. but what is certain is that Neymar has been dropped from the list this season, meaning that Al Hilal is serious about bringing in a new player from Europe. I tried to interpret the hopes of Al Hilal management that their squad would be more complex and competitive. starting from the goalkeeper, defense line, midfielders and also their strikers. and so far, Al Hilal is quite calm in its position at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings. in fact, it's still too soon to predict that Al Hilal will win the Saudi Pro League trophy this season, even Al Hilal management is still thinking about bringing in a newcomer to replace the slot filled by Neymar. which means, they don't want anything undesirable to happen. that's why Al Hilal has prepared its squad as ready as possible. moreover, this team is a squad that has a winning mentality.

As for Benzema, it's a shame that his presence in this competition doesn't get much attention. I can understand it from the start, starting from the previous Al Ittihad coach and the lack of equal service to help him when building attacks and breaking down the opposing team's goal. maybe what happens to the Al Ittihad squad will be a consideration for the club in bringing in the players they need. another unique thing is Firmino, when he debuted he was able to score a hat-trick. but so far he has not been able to score another goal, even though Firmino doesn't always play badly. to be honest, I don't know why he is having problems, or maybe Firmino is having difficulty adapting. despite all that, currently Al Hilal is still firmly at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings.

I am sure that Son will stay at Tottenham until 2025, and it is also possible that Tottenham management could release their striker if they receive an attractive offer, like Kane who went to Bayern Munchen. From a business perspective, of course Tottenham wants to do this, considering that Son is approaching 32 years old.

SPL has not stopped developing crazy transfer rumors, but I still doubt that Al Ittihad can recruit Son. From a financial perspective, of course we don't doubt the amount of money they have, but in this January transfer window it seems unlikely they will be able to bring Son there.

Ange, with his target in the EPL, certainly doesn't want to let him go this season because he hasn't been able to find a new striker with qualities close to Son in a short time. If Son is released, then we will see a drastic decline in Tottenham performance in the EPL in a short time.

[TelolettOm]

Messi May be the smarter player in the game,but you should understand the fact.The Ronaldo had the huge fan bases compared to the rest of the player including the Messi.Both Messi and Ronaldo was the goat in the football.But the game of both this two player was in the different style,the best player in this was none.Every player had their own style,this was the reason for some fans will have their own fans in the football community.If the both this player was playing the match,it will be the biggest match of the history.The organisers will become the millionaire in the single day match in the stadium.The possibility of scoring goals in the penalty will be made by Ronaldo.

I didn't compare which player is smarter. I just stated that both are smart players. If we compare which one is smarter, it will be an endless debate. I don't want to debate on it because we are not in the topic about Messi vs Ronaldo.

I know very well about the skills of both players. I already watched them since they are young players. I even already watched Messi since he was a substituted player in Barcelona squad. So, don't think that I am a new football lover, dude!

Son is way too high of a level player that Ittihad would get, and I do not think that they are going to be able to get him. He is too young for him to basically "retire" and come here. There aren't that many players who are at their primes here, and the ones  who are at their prime are not players who are great neither.

Why? I don't think so. It is about the offer made by Al Ittihad and the plan of SON. If SON still plans to play in Europe, he won't accept the offer although it will be a big offer. Please understand that playing in SPL isn't the same as retire from football career.

Son is one of the best Asian product in Premier League with now in this season he is playing as captain which is the biggest honor for him, and he is doing impressive job with Tottenham which is currently in top five, and they can achieve more things in near future with this all most chances he will never leave this league and club after end of this season he would be 32 and his contract is going to end 2026 most chances if he will join this league then 2026 not before this.
Ange Postecoglou doing good work after joining Tottenham as coach and their team having very good start of the season even currently, they are suffering due to some bad performances, but they can fight back, and we will have them at better spot with Son is key for this all, and he is also not player who can leave this all for the money.

It's the same thing like when SPL was targeting some great players on his era even like mbappe too. Son has been very happy playing in the totenham and why shall he leave for the saudi pro league? This mission is impossible to be true.

The saudi scouting team shall try to think about sense target. I am aware that the popularity of the league would increase even further if we were able to recruit some talented players, however, there are certain players who strongly believe that they would prefer to retire in the EU.

Son was one of them and this is also the main reason he has rejected saudi's offer. The club needs to think about the sense players that can be recruited

Saudi needs to use its sense when scouting the players. It's not all of players are caring with their money. Saudi needs to learn a lot from this case caused by it's very important to the club.

Tottenham Hotspur was competitive enough and they enter first position on the EPL table but couldn't maintain consistency in matches, they declined after their main players picked injuries and that was a big fall for Spurs. I thought Tottenham Hotspur would crumbled without the presence of Harry Kane, but they survived and elevated to their best performance without any limitations. Before, it was Harry Kane that was put infront as the main player but now we're watching Heung-min Son developing himself around some new teammates and the coach admires his style of performance on the pitch.

[tranthidung]

I didn't compare which player is smarter. I just stated that both are smart players. If we compare which one is smarter, it will be an endless debate. I don't want to debate on it because we are not in the topic about Messi vs Ronaldo.

I know very well about the skills of both players. I already watched them since they are young players. I even already watched Messi since he was a substituted player in Barcelona squad. So, don't think that I am a new football lover, dude!

They are both smart people and players because without smartness, they would have not been two best players in the last 20 years and even in football history. They made different decisions when leaving Europe, decided to join different leagues at different continents but I don't say who is smarter than the others. We don't know their actual reasons for those decisions and maybe their decisions were made not only because of themseves like their career but also because of their family exclusively their children.

Why? I don't think so. It is about the offer made by Al Ittihad and the plan of SON. If SON still plans to play in Europe, he won't accept the offer although it will be a big offer. Please understand that playing in SPL isn't the same as retire from football career. 

Son is still strong physically and he can play well in Premier League next one or two seasons. If just saying about achievement for an Asian player, Son has gotten a lot of achievements that can be enough with many Asian players. However, he is an ambitious player and his ambition is what makes him to learn, train, improve in Harmburg then moved to Tottenham and make history there. I feel like Son will continue his career in Tottenham and will not leave Premier League soon.

Perhaps he will move to Saudi Professional League after World Cup 2026 when he will satisfy his ambition to play in another World Cup with his national team and also be older enough to seriously consider about his finance when retirement day will come closer.

[Hirose UK]

Previously there were rumors that Seko Fofana would be sold by Al Nassr because he could not provide good performance, but I have just received some information that Al Nassr is quite satisfied with Seko Fofana performance and will keep him.
He is player who has been contracted from Lens for 3 years at cost of €25 million, if you look at his performance, he is not that impressive as midfielder, but he is always relied on and is on Luis Castro list of main players.
It just that I think Luis Castro must be able to optimize the defense line they have more because they have lost several times and conceded more than 2 goals, this will be very dangerous if it continues to be the same in the future to face all the matches in the second half of this season.
In the front line, Al Nassr has quite good quality and of course they have Ronaldo, Mane and Talisca, but Al Nassr defense can still be said to be quite weak.

Son is still having a lot of chances to play even in a better team than totenham and why does he need to go there?SPL was good but we shall also try to realize the fact that if son is as good as kane.
Son can go to a better club like bayern munich and it sounds non sense if he leaves from totenham to join in the saudi pro league. Im not underestimating SPL but if we are talking about the fact that son is still good enough to play at the top of league in european continent. No reason for him to go to the saudi pro league. SPL is very good for the player to retire. I would prefer him to join in the real madrid rather than SPL club.
SPL club can get various alternatives for him. There's no need to feel so bad about it coz he will get a chance to play in SPL in the future.

He has been linked to the several good clubs and it's a degrade if he will be going to this league before he was accomplishing his mission in EU competition.
Son will come in the future, but it's not for now. The decision to reject it is good enough for him.

[Strongkored]

The natural reason for Son Heung-min to reject the offer is because this player really wants to spend his career in Europe to get better results, but just imagine if he joined Ittihad, wouldn't that make a difference?
The bad performance experienced by Benzema became the public spotlight and people wondered why Benzema couldn't perform like Ronaldo when they were both star players and I thought that Benzema needed a supporting player like Ronaldo who has Talisca as a supporter and if I Son accepted the offer I was sure that Benzema would will definitely show his talent as a star player but it would be a shame if Son refused the offer.

If only to support Karim Benzema at Ittihad FC, of course Son would reject the offer, even if he was offered to become the main striker and not just as a feeder for Benzema, Son's chances of joining the club are very small.
Ittihad FC needs to look for other players, if they want young ones then they have to look in smaller leagues but if they want to get those who have proven to be reliable then their age is between 33-35 because at that age usually elite clubs in the big leagues will start looking for replacements so that players will look for other clubs that can be chosen to continue playing, especially clubs in saudi pro league are always willing to pay a high price because they realize that the impact the player will have is not only about achievements but also news that will make the club even more famous.

Al Hilal got Neymar and Mitrovic because they trust their partnership and they needed both of their strengths to be able to surpass other clubs in the league. It’s unfortunate that Neymar got out due to injury and It’s a pity it turns out to be long termed. Both Benzema and Firmino haven’t been able to get their grounds yet but I think if their respective teams get some good signings from Europe to help on the strikers this will be a boost for the players and the team and make the SPL more competitive.

 Now he’ll have to be taken off the squad list so that the Saudi club can bring in a foreign player who’ll strengthen their attack for the 2nd half of the season. It’s so crazy that even without Neymar’s presence Al Nassr haven’t been able to catch up with them yet. Mitrovic has stood out and other European stars also making this team a class team.

Of course Al Hilal recruited these two players because they believed they could strengthen Al Hilal in the Saudi League, but it turned out that Neymar could not be expected at all because he was injured and he is a failed Al Hilal recruit. So he had to be dropped from the Al Hilal squad so that Al Hilal can recruit new players from Europe, but even so, Al Hilal is still performing well even without Neymar because Alexsander Mitrovic is able to play very well in the current Al Hilal squad and is able to score many goals for the Al Hilal club.
Meanwhile, Karim Benzema has not made a good contribution to Ittihad, perhaps because of the lack of players who help Benzema in creating opportunities so that Benzema has a little difficulty in scoring goals.

Al Nassr has not been able to catch up because so far Al Hilal has not experienced a defeat at all, while Al Nassr has experienced 3 defeats, so Al Nassr has to wait for Al Hilal to experience the first and second defeats so that the difference between Al Nassr and Al Hilal becomes smaller.

[BRINIRHA]

Son is way too high of a level player that Ittihad would get, and I do not think that they are going to be able to get him. He is too young for him to basically "retire" and come here. There aren't that many players who are at their primes here, and the ones  who are at their prime are not players who are great neither.

I believe that the best thing to do in this case would be just chasing players who are nearly 35 years old, do not look for 38 year old ones, but look for 34 or 35, that would be a lot better, they would not be at their prime, but they would be a bit better. Slowly you can get lower and lower than that. Son on the other hand is young, and he has at least 3-4 more seasons he can play at the top level and do fine.

H. Son is indeed a player who still has the ambition to continue to have a brilliant career in Europe. He is now 31 years old and that is still a very productive age to remain at a big club in Europe like he is currently at Spurs. So Arab clubs have to target players who are slightly older than Son. Because the chance of getting Son is very slim. Because he is currently having a great moment in the Premier League. So I doubt he will accept offers from other clubs.

Reportedly, M. Salah is also being targeted by Arab clubs and yes, his condition is the same as H. Son. M. Salah is also 31 years old and he will definitely choose to stay at Liverpool for the next few seasons. Because M. Salah is also in his best moment at Liverpool at the moment. In fact, he has the current record for top scorer in the EPL. So M. Salah also has the opportunity to reject every offer from another club that wants him.

The worst and most boring part about Al-Hilal is how little resistance they experience from their opponents. Al Feiha didn't have one shot on target and during the full 90+ minutes they had two shots (not even on target though!). I don't know but this season will be a boring one and Al-Nassr disappointed a lot of those fans that were hoping for them to win the title. Ronaldo will probably score the most goals this season, but they won't have a chance to close the gap again and have a say in the fight for the title.

It indicated that the level of Al Hilal is above than their opponents. Al Feiha isn't the same level as Al Hilal, they are only a weak team in SPL. Moreover, Al Feiha is experiencing bad season, they performed very badly in the last few matches. Just look at the stats, they never won or got a draw, they were defeated in every match. Considering these matters, it is a bit impossible to expect a tough match against Al Feiha.

It is very likely Ronaldo to win the top scorer status this season. But Al Nassr surely will be difficult to win the title, the point gap is quite large and Al Hilal looks like in their best shape.

Ronaldo will win the top scorer trophy this title, I have no doubts about that. He is taking all the penalties and that alone could get him close to that trophy as one third of his goals is scored by penalty. But I don't know whether people really care when Ronaldo is the top scorer in the Saudi Professional League. I admire him for the records he has set in the Champions League, that's the reason I look up to him and have respect for him. I don't care whether he scores 20 goals or 40 goals in the SPL.

He is now 31 years old and that is still a very productive age to remain at a big club in Europe like he is currently at Spurs. So Arab clubs have to target players who are slightly older than Son. Because the chance of getting Son is very slim. Because he is currently having a great moment in the Premier League. So I doubt he will accept offers from other clubs.

Son looks to fight to win a title with Tottenham as he already won A Best Scorer Award three seasons ago, shared it with Mo Salah. Harry Kane left and gave Son a chance to be a captain of Tottenham. He led them well in like first 10 matches but lately Tottenham fell down on the table and not sure they will end in top four after a failure to get it last season.

If Son sees no chance to win title with Tottenham, he will join Saudi Professional League because at his age, big clubs will no longer want to take too much risk by spending transfer fee to get him from Tottenham.

Reportedly, M. Salah is also being targeted by Arab clubs and yes, his condition is the same as H. Son. M. Salah is also 31 years old and he will definitely choose to stay at Liverpool for the next few seasons. Because M. Salah is also in his best moment at Liverpool at the moment. In fact, he has the current record for top scorer in the EPL. So M. Salah also has the opportunity to reject every offer from another club that wants him.

Salah is different than Son as he won Champions League, Premier League with Liverpool and he can leave Europe without any regret by playing there and have no title for his career. The biggest regret with Salah is he failed to win Ballon d'Or and failed to win title with his national team.

He can leave Europe, join a club in Saudi Professional League and get money before his retirement next some years. There were some offers in the last summer but at the end, Liverpool successfully kept Salah in Anfield but pressure on them will become bigger when Salah's contract is counting down.

I admire him for the records he has set in the Champions League, that's the reason I look up to him and have respect for him. I don't care whether he scores 20 goals or 40 goals in the SPL.

It is clear that the level of competition is different and wherever Ronaldo registers his name in the list of top scorers in a competition, it will be much more impressive when he is in a big competition. The Saudi League may not be that interesting but here he has listed his name as the temporary top scorer and also as the top scorer for the club and national team in 2023. Moreover, as you said, a third of that was scored through penalties and I think that was both luck and Ronaldo's skill. He almost never fails to execute a penalty kick and it always ends in a goal.

The Champions League is Ronaldo's competition and that's why he is nicknamed Mr. Champion league because he is the top scorer of all time in the competition and it is very difficult for any player to break his record. He always consistently scored goals in the competition and was often the top scorer when he was with Real Madrid.

Mitrovic is still very close to him. Mitrovic still becomes the biggest threat that can make ronaldo failed to get the trophy as a player with most of the goals this season in the saudi pro league. It will be so bad if ronaldo will be bottling it at the end of season. There are still three goals gap between mitrovic and ronaldo. The chance for ronaldo to leave him behind is very big. It surprises me how benzema has been stopping from producing the goals.

Benzema was performing so crazily at the early season but i think that there was a reason he was performing so badly in SPL. It seems like that benzema has joinned in the wrong team.
He was also triggering the internal problem in the club, said superstar like him has more power compared to the coach. It makes the club got many complaints from its players and supporters.

Let's see whether mitrovic can be even closer to the ronaldo again, since he was always taking the penalty. It will be good if mitrovic can have a same goal as ronaldo again before the end of season.
Mitrovic needs to produce even more goal and he needs to be even more active.
