Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[QueenVera]

Yes, I also really miss the Saudi League playing again, but what can we do, we have to be patient and wait, of course even though currently the Saudi League players are relaxing, it would be better if they prepared themselves with training and of course it will definitely produce stamina and good performance. Yes, the elite teams have to perform well because their competition when the Saudi League starts will definitely be tight, especially as Ittihad will of course start its first match after a long holiday and Ittihad will face Al-Ta'ee, even though Ittihad can be said to be superior to Al -ta'ee but of course we won't know because sometimes Al-ta'ee's performance might be better because of the long holiday. So indeed, having training like that will definitely make the team's abilities better and no longer stiff when the match starts.

It looks like Al-Hilal's match against Inter Miami in the Friendly match is also getting closer and of course you have to start practicing now.
Likewise with Al-Nassr who will face Shanghai Shenhua in the Friendlies match so they definitely also need to train from now on so I am amazed by the Saudi League team who are training.

Yes, of course in the next match there will definitely be a fierce match because of course all teams want to become champions this season. Yes, I also can't wait and want to see the match.

The SPL league are on break at this point and it’ll e preferable these players use this time to train well and harder especially as how competition will increase when the league resumes. Al Ittihad and Al Ta’ee will be one match to look out for. Especially as the later won’t be taking the match lightly knowing the former’s performance this season have been quite poor. Al Hilal and Al Nassr’s friendlies are getting closer and I believe their players are seriously training for these matches to make the team and league proud.

 These matches will be quite fierce as it’ll be a big boost especially for the league of the winners so are pretty important and the players for this reason are real serious about it, cause the rivalry with both team is getting intense and none would want  to lose to another even though it's just a friendly match.

Not only that, but in terms of goal statistics, Al Hilal is the best among all the teams in the Saudi Pro League this season, Al Hilal only conceded 9 goals in 19 matches and scoring 59 goals is extraordinary.
What Al Hilal has achieved this season continues their dominance in the Saudi pro league which was broken by Ittihad FC last season, because Al Hilal is the team with the most Saudi pro league titles compared to other clubs by collecting 18 championship titles and succeeding as runners up 15 times.
Al Hilal's dominance is not like Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, which continues to be champion many times, even for a decade, because if they have been champions 2 or 3 times, there will be other teams such as Al Nassr and Ittihad FC who can break this dominance, but in a decade this champion is dominated by a club that is under the auspices of PIF, so we can see that money plays quite an important role in making a team strong and successful.

I'll just add to what you said in this post. however, I do not have data and information regarding exactly when PIF acquired the 4 clubs competing in the Saudi Pro League. but what is clear, before PIF acquired Al Hilal and several other clubs. PIF has first acquired the majority of shares in Newcastle in 2021. After that, in the 22-23 season news spread that PIF owned the majority of shares in Al Hilal, Al Nassr, Al Ittihad and Al-Ahli. So before PIF took over ownership of Al Hilal, this team was one of the elite teams in the Saudi Pro League. and yeah, as you said that is the fact.
Last season Al Hilal had a very busy schedule of matches compared to other teams, especially in the second half of the season. In one week, Al Hilal can play 3 matches that are close together. Apart from that, Al Hilal must divide its focus on other competitions. In the end, this team experienced a decline in performance, and Al Ittihad was able to break Al Hilal's dominance after three consecutive seasons of being champions in this competition.

This season, Al Hilal is no less competitive with Al Nassr, which has long been its rival. They brought in several top European players, and the most famous was Neymar. In the end, Neymar was dropped due to a long injury in order to add slots to strengthen their defensive line. Now, Al Hilal is at the top of the standings with a difference of seven points over the teams below their ranking. It could be said that currently Al Hilal is the closest in winning the Saudi Pro League trophy this season. especially, if we talk based on statistics and you have reviewed them. So, the Al Hilal coach's job is only to maintain the consistency of his team's squad until this season ends.

I really miss the Saudi league and can't wait to watch the matches of the teams filled with star players. But it seems we have to be a little more patient because the Saudi League competition will start in about 2 weeks and we hope that the players will be fit when the competition starts again. I saw that elite Saudi league teams such as Al-Nassr, Al-Hilal, Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad have started training simultaneously since yesterday and of course this is something they have to do considering the match is getting closer.

The players often have to do more intense training to maintain their performance and even though they have more time to relax than other leagues, they have to start preparing again for real battles. The competition for the title may be interesting but the prestige of each competing team to always target 3 points is something that should be prioritized. Apart from that, I also can't wait to place bets again on Saudi League matches.

Many Saudi teams are still interested in hiring superstar players and they are going to send offers for more players during this summer, for example, I was expecting to see more players like Lewandoski and Salah finally accept the offer from these teams and play in the Saudi League, however, there's the chance for these players to had poor performance just like Karim Benzema had so far.

[Hirose UK]

~snip~

what can we expect, benzema doesn't seem to have teammates who can support him on the field, it's different when he was at Real Madrid, there are so many great midfielders who can support him. I also really hope that Benzema returns to the European League, big teams like Man Utd and Chelsea are keen to monitor Benzema's future developments at Al Ittihad, I don't really follow Benzema's developments there but rumors about him having problems with Al Ittihad management have been heard very loudly, he is a good striker but I don't know why, it seems that since being in the SPL, his ethics are not so good.

But at least he can play well and of course as time goes by everything will become like perfect squad where there is full support from every player, it just that perhaps the lack of proper coordination and good game collaboration makes Benzema look less competitive.
There is possibility that Benzema could return to Europe but if he only plays for team like Manchester United or Chelsea then it will be the same and in my opinion it is still much better to play with Al-Ittihad than to play for one of the two English team.
But if Benzema can return to Real Madrid, it will restore his career, but it seems that Ancelotti also doesn't really believe in Benzema and what more, Ancelotti has plans to bring in several star players.
Benzema has lost his position for Real Madrid and Benzema will not be able to return to play with Real Madrid at his advancing age.

If that happens the Saudi league will be even more terrifying and maybe more people will come to watch every big match filled with the names of these great European players. Mohammed Salah and Lewandowski are the most strongly rumored to be going to the Saudi league but that won't happen this winter and we'll see if in the summer everything changes or stays the same. The possibility of Mohammed Salah staying at Liverpool is still very strong and Jurgen Kloop is also not a problem even though he is old enough to be at Liverpool as long as the player can perform well and contribute fully to the team.

But when it comes to Lewandowski, the biggest possibility is with him and it is impossible for Barcelona to keep him with his current quality. Moreover, Lewandowski already has a replacement from Brazil and the possibility of being expelled from Barcelona is also very high. Apart from that, the Saudi league will definitely look for other European player options who already have big names to continue to expose the league.

While the league is resting, of course the players will continues to train to prepare themselves mentally to faced the matches in the second half of this season because the journey is still long and clubs needs to hone their skill. The Saudi League has a long break compared to other leagues and the Saudi League will start match in the second half. This season at the beginning of February, Ittihad will start their match with Al Ta'ee in Week 19 because both clubs are not in good condition, so you need to be careful if you want to bet.

Al Nassr and Al Hilal will continue to show their best abilities even though it is only a friendly match because this is the league of star player Lionel Messi so Al Hilal will try to prove whether Inter Miami performance can be as good as Al Hilal in terms of strength. Once Ronaldo reunites with Lionel Messi, they will definitely continue to do so the best for their respective leagues and prove who is still strong today knowing thats both of them are no longer young.

Everyone here must feel the same way as you. Because the SPL league holiday of more than 1 month really feels very long. So we all definitely want the SPL to start again soon. Because it's a bit boring without seeing C.Ronaldo and other European star players not competing in the SPL for 1 month. And I am increasingly curious about Al-hilal and Al-Nassr who have a friendly match against Inter Miami. I want to see the match immediately and see Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo face each other again on the field.

I hope that after this 1 month break everything will change and Al-Nassr will get stronger and can beat Al-hilal.

Im feeling quite bad to hear that ittihad and some clubs will be missing their european players. We are still a very long way to go before the match will begin again. All of teams need to sorted out all of their problems before the continuation from the match is going to happen soon.
I have no problems about al hilal and ahli but ittihad has been included in my exception. I meant that al hilal and ahli were in good conditions. Al nassr too but it's not for ittihad as there was internal conflict that was making benzema potentially to leave from the club to rejoin in the european club again. This rumor was disrupting the environment of saudi pro league caused by we all know that if ittihad had bought him with a lot of money. This makes thing change drastically in al ittihad.

The players often have to do more intense training to maintain their performance and even though they have more time to relax than other leagues, they have to start preparing again for real battles. The competition for the title may be interesting but the prestige of each competing team to always target 3 points is something that should be prioritized. Apart from that, I also can't wait to place bets again on Saudi League matches.

Mid - end of season has always become the most important time to keep winning the game. Im sure that if al hilal will still keep to perform consistent in any of matches till the end of season. We are coming to the end of season soon.
Al hilal may able to keep its unbeatable record till the end of season. Al nassr will be in the big problem if al hilal will never lose any points till the end of season. I think that al hilal is going to win the current season.
It's caused by al hilal has been making absolute domination in SPL.

[Josefjix]

We know how Ronaldo plays in every league, he is always full of ambition so don't be surprised if Ronaldo can adapt quickly, one clear example is that he can always take a place in the top scorer list and this is the 4th time Ronaldo has won the golden boot from a different league, yeah Ronaldo hasn't got it yet in the Saudi Pro League but I'm sure he will and Ronaldo is also in the top 1 based on assists, currently Ronaldo is 3 goals ahead of Aleksandar Mitrović. By the way, Aleksandar Mitrović is also one of the players who adapted the fastest in the Saudi Pro League and this is his first season but he managed to attract attention.

I've not seen a player that have been consistent like Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi in football history, both players have been top competition for major titles for years and also in their late 30s they're still doing wonders. My favorite is stated clear to be Ronaldo, he's a rare gem and different from the vast majority of European players who thinks they can't compete with him in every level of football he's been categorized. When Ronaldo move to Saudi Pro League, he changed the football system of Saudi Arabia because they grown to become very popular. Cristiano Ronaldo have been known for his incredible qualities as a top player, he's always aiming for the best qualities and have not given up in any phase of football.

A very long pause seems reasonable if indeed with this long pause will be utilized by many Saudi League Pro Clubs to get talented players from Europe in the hope that before the match starts again the players who have just been recruited can perform together.
But it not sure if the club from Saudi Pro Liga can get Lewandowski or Salah because these two players will continue to survive in Europe as long as they do not have very old age or even like Lewandowski are willing to retire rather than going to Saudi Arabia.
Yes, maybe a lot of people who can't wait to see the Saudi pro league soon begins again and the most waiting for me is only Al Nassr and Al Hilal will face Inter Miami who will prove that who is the most powerful even if only a friendly match.

Of course, the players do not care about the difficulty of the Saudi Arabian league, but SPL is a league with a lot of competition. We will see this if we look at the teams' fight against each other. The main problem for football players is that they cannot adapt to the country. The situation in the country is very different for players who played in Europe and got used to it. For the players in the SPL, the Saudi management should provide some incentives to remain a center of attraction.

In recent times, we have no player at the level of Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Massi and this all has never been easy because they are doing their hard work for staying at this level and having performance like this without injuries and other troubles which are hurting mostly big players love to enjoy life and having no things like these two are doing.

Ronaldo's move to Saudi League was big gamble from organizers and now in first season with mostly on papers it looks like they are achieving their target but in reality many difficulties are coming and these needs to be sorted out if they want to have more foreign players in this league because conditions are not favourable with culture and many other problems are also hurting them if they are going to have settled then surely we will have this league at completely different level otherwise this all huge investment can go down badly.

The SPL league are on break at this point and it’ll e preferable these players use this time to train well and harder especially as how competition will increase when the league resumes. Al Ittihad and Al Ta’ee will be one match to look out for. Especially as the later won’t be taking the match lightly knowing the former’s performance this season have been quite poor. Al Hilal and Al Nassr’s friendlies are getting closer and I believe their players are seriously training for these matches to make the team and league proud.

Once Ronaldo reunites with Lionel Messi, they will definitely continue to do so the best for their respective leagues and prove who is still strong today knowing thats both of them are no longer young.

This break is just because of weather and few other things like we have AFC Asian Cup and Afcon so many players are involved in these events which can hurt many teams even this issue is still going to have problems after this break, but this can do some better relief to them, and they are also having mid-break like we have in UEFA leagues but as mentioned too long which is also ok for them if they are feeling ok in first half we have few good things like Al Hilal leading clearly and defending champions Al Ittihad having troubling time with Al Nassr is trying his best for jumping at the top which is not easy.

With the news of many European players are feeling not comfortable things are looking some shaky but in future we can expect better environment because league needs to be comfortable if they want to have better results from players for the long run success hopefully arrival of new players will be also created good things and performance will be also improved for the many other players and clubs.

The year Cristiano Ronaldo entered SPL I continued to hear negative news about the fans and proprietors of Al-Nassr frustrated with his performance. I understand his performance because Ronaldo is older which is the reason he is declining. But the case changed this season, Ronaldo has the highest number of goals made and is also the leader in assists in SPL. He is truly unique; he helps SPL and Saudi Arabia by bringing new large number of fans and foreign travelers.

The conditions and culture are different from Europe. Karim Benzema is reported unhappy in Saudi Arabia and plans to return to Europe. But for these reasons, they are paid more than in European clubs. Saudi will change, and they are gradually changing to improve.

When Ronaldo move to Saudi Pro League, he changed the football system of Saudi Arabia because they grown to become very popular. Cristiano Ronaldo have been known for his incredible qualities as a top player, he's always aiming for the best qualities and have not given up in any phase of football.

Ronaldo is indeed a footballer who has extraordinary talent. Because everything has been proven, wherever he plays football, he never relaxes his performance. But he didn't get all this easily. However, with extra practice and very hard work and always consistent. For this reason, Ronaldo can be said to be one of the fighters in the world of football who has a very high work ethic. Even though he is quite old, his performance is still comparable to young players, it could even be said that Ronaldo can still outperform young players. Because as you discussed, Ronaldo has currently managed to become the temporary top scorer in the Saudi Arabian League (SPL). Apart from that, what differentiates Ronaldo from other football players is that he has extraordinary charm. Because as we know, the transfer market trend that occurred in the Saudi Arabian league started with the recruitment of Ronaldo by Al Nasr. After that, the other players also followed suit.

And talking about rivalry, Leonal Messi is also a great footballer so calling him Ronaldo's rival is a very natural and comparable thing. The reason is, Messi currently has 8 Ballon d'Or trophies and Ronaldo only has 5. However, even so, if you see the game of these two players directly on the field, I like Ronaldo better than. Because if Ronaldo only loses because of the difference in the number of Ballon d'Or trophies, I don't think that's a problem. But the most important thing is his performance when playing on the field.

[rendravolt]

Still quite warm news came from Al-Hilal and they finally introduced their new recruit from Marseille, namely Renan Lodi. A few days ago it was discussed that an agreement had been reached on his transfer and today he was introduced to the fan public. Renan Lodi is still quite young at 25 years and it seems like he wants to try new things outside Europe before returning again. His position is as a left back and it seems that Al-Hilal did the right thing by bringing him in because the defense line also needs to be strengthened so that they can be stronger against the opponent's attacks.

Renan Lodi's status is on loan and his contract will last until 2027 and Lyon will also receive a fee of 20 million euros from the results of this transfer. I think Marseille also made the right move with this loan because they also need fresh funds to strengthen the depth of their squad. However, both Al-Hilal and Marseille have benefited from the transfer of Renan Lodi and we hope that this can also have a big impact on Al-Hilal with the addition of this squad.

[Arenga pinnata]

Everyone here must feel the same way as you. Because the SPL league holiday of more than 1 month really feels very long. So we all definitely want the SPL to start again soon. Because it's a bit boring without seeing C.Ronaldo and other European star players not competing in the SPL for 1 month. And I am increasingly curious about Al-hilal and Al-Nassr who have a friendly match against Inter Miami. I want to see the match immediately and see Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo face each other again on the field.

I hope that after this 1 month break everything will change and Al-Nassr will get stronger and can beat Al-hilal.

More precisely, not a 1 month gap but a 1.5 month gap. Because the SPL will start again in the middle of February, namely around February 15, starting with the Al-akhdoud vs Al-Ahli match. So we will obviously feel this is taking a very long time and become bored. Because 1.5 months is quite a long time.

But our boredom will indeed be relieved in 2 weeks or at the end of January. We will see a friendly match between Al-Hilal vs Inter Miami and continue with the AL-Nassr vs Inter Miami match at the beginning of February. But after that we will get bored again because we have to wait another 2 weeks before the SPL finally starts again.

[Blitzboy]

I really miss the Saudi league and can't wait to watch the matches of the teams filled with star players. But it seems we have to be a little more patient because the Saudi League competition will start in about 2 weeks and we hope that the players will be fit when the competition starts again. I saw that elite Saudi league teams such as Al-Nassr, Al-Hilal, Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad have started training simultaneously since yesterday and of course this is something they have to do considering the match is getting closer.

The players often have to do more intense training to maintain their performance and even though they have more time to relax than other leagues, they have to start preparing again for real battles. The competition for the title may be interesting but the prestige of each competing team to always target 3 points is something that should be prioritized. Apart from that, I also can't wait to place bets again on Saudi League matches.

Many Saudi teams are still interested in hiring superstar players and they are going to send offers for more players during this summer, for example, I was expecting to see more players like Lewandoski and Salah finally accept the offer from these teams and play in the Saudi League, however, there's the chance for these players to had poor performance just like Karim Benzema had so far.

Looking forward to seeing whether the Saudi League signs Lewandowski and Salah. It'll affect everything if they do. Imagine matches full with European superstars! However, I doubt Lewandowski's move. Given the speculations of a Brazilian successor, Barcelona may not keep him. On the other hand, Salah may stay with Liverpool. Salah fits Klopp's system, which maximizes performance.

The Saudi League's approach is smart. These famous players are meant to boost the league's profile. Football quality and worldwide attention are both important. I want to watch how this approach plays out and who makes the big move.

[Volgastallion]

I dont know why Asian and Africa cup dont play at the same time as the two main continental cups like Eurocup and America cup, is a complete non sense and also hurts so much the teams who have asian or african players, like Son for tottenham and Salah for Liverpool.

And here we have this pause, so shit.

But our boredom will indeed be relieved in 2 weeks or at the end of January. We will see a friendly match between Al-Hilal vs Inter Miami and continue with the AL-Nassr vs Inter Miami match at the beginning of February. But after that we will get bored again because we have to wait another 2 weeks before the SPL finally starts again.

If Neymar had not been injured, the Al-Hilal vs Inter Miami meeting would have been more exciting. Because we know Neymar was Messi's partner at Barcelona and PSG. So it will be very interesting to see two great players who are originally friends and then face each other on the field as opponents.

And when I see the depth of the current Inter Miami squad, it really makes me nostalgic for the composition of players that Barcelona had during Messi's time. Well, currently Inter Miami is actually filled with alumni of Barcelona players themselves. Messi, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and Luis Suarez. Well, this is a composition that will really make everyone nostalgic, remembering Barcelona a few years ago. And the feel of Barcelona will be increasingly felt from the Inter Miami club because the current coach is Gerardo Martino, who was also the coach at Barcelona in 2013-2014.

And CR7 and Al-Nassr will also be very excited to face Inter Miami. Moreover, CR7 definitely also wants to feel the sensation he used to have when he often faced Messi on the field. All the fans, including me, can't wait for this match. It seems like 2 weeks from now will feel like a long time.
