Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[rendravolt]

The match of Al-Hilal vs Al-Raed team is now half-time. Now Al-Hilal team is leading by 2 goals. Al-Hilal team player A. Mitrović has started a great performance. A.  Mitrović scored two goals. Al-Raed team has not scored any goals yet. I don't think Al-Raed team can score any goals in today's match because Al-Raed team started the bad performance from the beginning of the game. Al-Hilal team is in the 1st position of the points table. 

That has been answered, Neymar did not participate in the match against Al Raed. But Al Hilal don't seem to mind as they continue to top the table even without Neymar. Mitrovic was the star of the day with 2 goals. With this win, AL Hilal are stronger at the top with a 7-point gap to An Nassr. Mitrovic is also the 2nd top scorer with 19 goals in 18 matches. Meanwhile, Ronaldo is currently number 1 with 21 goals in 19 matches. Mitrovic is a serious threat to Ronaldo because it is only 2 goals difference.

Without Neymar, Al-Hilal is still a strong team and we haven't even seen Neymar since the start of this season with Al-Hilal. From that alone we can know that the depth of the Al-Hilal squad can still be relied on if only to dominate the Saudi league and at the same time win the title this season. However, what is clear is that Neymar's return to Al-Hilal's main squad is highly anticipated by his colleagues and even though Neymar's name is very big for Al-Hilal marketing, at least he can help enliven the Saudi League this season before it ends.

Mitrovic is indeed someone to watch out for in opposing defenses and his finishing is always impressive. I rarely see Mitrovic waste chances and he can always make it a goal. This season's competition for top scorer will be dominated by just two players and I am quite curious about who will win the golden boot this season, Ronaldo or Mitrovic. These two strikers are equally productive and are often the key to the team's victory.

Well I also have the same thoughts about this. And in fact, we cannot deny that Benzema's arrival at the club in the SPL also attracted a lot of attention from world football fans and made the SPL even more famous. Although the biggest impact is because of Cristiano Ronaldo. But still, the presence of Benzema and other top European players also has other impacts which make the SPL's popularity even better. Because not only Cristiano Ronaldo came but other players also followed suit.

I don't think Saudi Pro League will more popular with Cristiano Ronaldo but after arriving many top European players such as Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kanté and the last recruitment Ivan Rakitić. However, Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to have a good impact on the Saudi Pro League team competition and made many top European players play there even though he still had a main place with their previous team.
The most important with how many european players arrived there how long keep stay and will play until their contract expiry or some of them will follow Jordan  Henderson leaves Al Ittifaq last window transfer opening. Fantastic payment salary received by many top european players make them can't deny for leaving Saudi Pro League teams and I think if get extend contract they will stay for longer time.

Well, this fantastic salary is what makes many top European players join SPL clubs. And yes, I hope that more top European players will come in the transfer market that will come after this season ends. Because it seems that several SPL clubs have even started to approach some good European players again. And I think the SPL clubs will also try to continue to retain European players who are already in the SPL to stay in the SPL longer. Because money is not a problem for clubs in the SPL, especially clubs under PIF ownership which have very large amounts of funding.

I tell you that some reasons that makes saudi become very popular like that in a short time.

1. Money
2. Ronaldo

I meant money is still playing the most important factor that helped the league to raise a lot of awareness from the football lovers. In my perspective, ronaldo will never ever join in the saudi pro league if it's not caused by the money. The club needs to buy a lot of european players to increase the engagement to the football lovers.
This is the main reason why saudi pro league becomes very popular in shorttime. I would like to put saudi pro league as the most popular league compared to the other asian league that is in the same level as saudi pro elague like chinese league.

The most important with how many european players arrived there how long keep stay and will play until their contract expiry or some of them will follow Jordan  Henderson leaves Al Ittifaq last window transfer opening. Fantastic payment salary received by many top european players make them can't deny for leaving Saudi Pro League teams and I think if get extend contract they will stay for longer time.

Many EU players have arrived to this league but i remind you that if some of them were also exodus back again to the european competition too. This could give SPL negative opinion regarding how bad the environment in the league.
The impact from the money wasted to buy european players can be faded away. SPL needs to take further action to prevent it to happen. Europan player which was going back to the EU league can also give negative opinion regarding SPL.

This problem must be addressed and i hope SPL will be aware about this coz it will make other EU players will refuse to join in the SPL club.

Yeah, at the end of the day it is the same reason that the European leagues became what they are today. Money.

Most other leagues around the world don't used to pay as much as the European leagues did, so it was natural to have most of the players gravitate towards them.

In the end what the Saudi Professional League is doing is what the European leagues did decades ago.

I guess the main difference is that football is not very popular in Saudi Arabia, but things can change over time.

Players who are starting to age are usually the main priority is the offer of high salaries and contracts, which means money. aging players will not think of other players, whoever the player wants to be Ronaldo Messi or whoever it is more important is the offer of a large salary before retiring to collect a lot of money first.

By recruiting Cristiano Ronaldo to join the Saudi pro club, it will certainly have a big influence on the progress and popularity of the Saudi Pro event in the world and with Cristiano Ronaldo as a Saudi Arabian supporter, their event is now widely known throughout the world. . the general public to be able to see or watch football matches at the Saudi club. Not only that, Ronaldo's arrival brought great luck to Saudi Arabia, namely the club made a lot of profits after Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival, even though before Cristiano Ronaldo arrived, Saudi Arabia had already experienced a lot of losses due to this decline. in their income on the world football scene.
And I agree with you, the entry of Cristiano Ronaldo also influenced the best European players to be able to enter and support Saudi Pro in the world football arena, one of which is Banzema and Neymar and these two best European players complement Cristiano Ronaldo. in supporting the progress of the Saudi Pro league.
Regarding the costs of contracting the world's best players, of course Saudi Arabia must have the courage to spend large amounts of money to be able to get these top players. that's an obvious fact.

[Gallar]

The idea about getting someone like Benzema is mainly because they wanted viewership and fans, not goals. Benzema scoring would mean a lot more views and followers of course, but doesn't mean that it's a must. This dude won the ballon d'or just a few years ago, he is one of the most recent winners, and that means they should be getting a lot of new fans thanks to him being at the club. I would just say, look at their clubs instagram follower numbers before him and after him.

These type of things matter because the king decided to make the league be followed a lot more on the long run, and he is willing to spend billions to make this a reality. Benzema was just part of that, he is for branding reasons, not so that he would score, great if he does but no problem if he doesn't.

Yes, your assumption is correct, if you look at this assumption from a marketing perspective. Because it cannot be denied, the recruitment of players like Benzema is certainly aimed at attracting football fans around the world to be interested in watching Saudi Arabian League (SPL) matches, especially Al Ittihad team matches. Because what is clear is that the more people who like watching Saudi Arabian League football matches, the greater the business opportunities.
So your assumption can be said to be correct, if seen from that point of view (Marketing).

However, if this assumption is seen from the professionalism of the players he recruited, such as Benzema. In my opinion, providing good and maximum results for his team (Al Ittihad) is a must. Because basically the task given to Benzema is not just to be a model or brand ambassador for the Al Ittihad team. However, the absolute obligation that Benzema must carry out is to play well on the field and be able to bring Al Ittihad to win the competitions in which Al Ittihad participates, such as the domestic league or ACL. So if Benzema doesn't play optimally and doesn't produce good results for Al Ittihad, then it is natural that his fans at Al Ittihad will label him as not good enough. This is because Al Ittihad supporters basically don't want to know anything behind the scenes of a team, but the most important thing for supporters is that the team they support must always produce satisfactory results in every match.

So in conclusion, if your assumptions are seen from this point of view (professionalism), I think your assumptions are very incorrect. Because Benzema has a career in competitive sports, and it is his obligation to be able to provide maximum results for his team (Al Ittihad).

The primary aim of the Saudi government to finance the biggest stars in football is to bring immense viewership. Playing very well is only an additional reward. Fans and the media will be interested if big football stars are brought into the Saudi League. When they show interest, it implies many cable corporations all over the world will pay the Saudi League for the right to broadcast the matches.

At present, the Saudi League keeps on putting resources into bringing numerous football stars. However, there is something to worry about if these stars stay long, they are now rich and they probably would not consider extensions any longer very much like Benzema who is looking for an exit.

[Volgastallion]

I was not seeing it but Al Hilala remains undefeated in this competition and only two draws, mega campaing they are doing, and all this without Neymar really impressive, only 10 goals allowed half less than the second best defense team who has only 22 goals allowed, so they are making good on offensive and also in the defense. Claps for the coach.

Claps for the coach.

With the very impressive results that Al Hilal managed to have this season without Neymar, then why did Al Hilal buy Neymar and I am very curious about the purpose of Al Hilal buying Neymar. Whether Al Hilal just following the trend or Al Hilal really purely aims to strengthen its squad with star players like Neymar. But yes, the fact is that Neymar has only played a few times since Neymar arrival at Al Hilal, if I'm not mistaken Neymar only played 3 matches for Al Hilal. After that, Neymar injured until now and made Neymar body fatter now like a retired player, it's very funny. But indeed, as long as Al Hilal is still able to pay Neymar salary then it will be fine. But yes, if I consider what is happening right now about Neymar condition, it doesn't seem like a good situation either because with a fatter body like that it will certainly make Neymar unable to play as well as before.

[temple]

This has probably been one of the luckiest signings any sport as seen from the perspective of the player. He has been impressive during that one year when they won the Champions League and he literally scored every single game and it was unbelievable at some point. I agree that he deserved to win the Ballon d'Or in 2022, but apart from that season he was two levels below his best. Don't get me wrong here, but I can't remember one reason in which he reached the level he reached in 2021/22 and I acknowledge this as it was outrageous. If he didn't play a season like that, I doubt he would have ever been in a position to sign this insane contract. He was still good and he scored his goals, but it wasn't like the year before. You could see how he was less thrilled and the body language changed and if I remember correctly, he got injured.

Wether we like to admit it or not, it doesn't change the fact that Karim Benzema had an incredible performance during the 2021/22 season that he helped Real Madrid to win the UEFA Champions League competition which was also the reason why he won the Balon D'or award and anybody who watched most of his performances then will agree to the fact that he deserved every personal accolade he got as of that time.

Since he moved to the Saudi Arabia League last summer, he's not been able to replicate his impressive goalscoring form during his time at Real Madrid in his current club Al Ittihad and just earlier this year, there were reports that he's not happy in his current club and was even pushing for a move away from the the club. But one thing that's obviously been happening since his reported fallout with the club is that he's been receiving his his wages at the club. Personally, I think the club is on the losing side and if I'm to advise them, I'll tell the club management to let go of him do they can sign other European players to replace him

You have mostly repeated what I said with some paraphrases, but there is one huge point of contention that I still disagree with.

In my opinion, when a top star delivering top performances in one of the top leagues in Europe for some of the best teams goes to Saudi Arabia, what do you expect from him? I expect from him that it goes the way it goes for Ronaldo. Ronaldo is a top player, so he performs well in any league and even more so in the Saudi Professional League although you see it's declining and that is due to several factors, one of them being motivation for such a competitive guy who is used to the biggest audiences in the world.

Benzema had this one outstanding season and that's it. He was an above average striker with 0.54 goals per game while playing for the best team in the world, which we know makes striking easier. I don't know why everyone thinks he was this world class unbelievable striker during his career. He was for one season, but apart from that he was an important part of the Real Madrid team, but compared to many other strikers that Real Madrid had in the past, there are several that have been better than him. 0.54 goals means about 20 - 21 goals per season. That's very good and ok you can call it world class. But even Gareth Bale got close to that and man, how often did he come from the bench?

That's why his performance at Al Ittihad is pretty thin.

[dezoel]

The thing about Al-Hilal is that they didn't get players who had a lot of followers, they got players they can afford and still not beyond their prime. Look at that team, tell me which one of them has fame like Ronaldo has, Ronaldo probably has more instagram followers than the entire Al-Hilal team combined, and yet does he take the spot thanks to that?

It goes to show you that we are talking about a team that cared about being good, and wanted to really just get the title. They were third last year and will win it this year, lets see how teams will be built for next year but if they keep this up, and use the money to get the best player instead of the most famous, then they could very well dominate this league.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The interesting thing about Al Ittihad and Benzema in this season is about the performance of Al Ittihad during the time when Benzema was

Well, I'll say something, if they have a Star like this and they don't use him, I don't know why they bothered to spend so many millions on him , plus he's an EU player or he's out of shape, I know that Benzema has had some problems recently. It's something normal, I don't know if it's because of adaptation or something like that, but it's something that he has to overcome or that I think he's overcome, but I really want to see this player shine like he did in Madrid, I don't know what It's just that he lacks it, but if he is training with the team it means that it is Already Something that is seen with a very Good omen.

The "cat Benzema" has Always been a player who has a lot to Give, for me he is the player who has the best lineup, everyone Says that the best Ferencé is Mbappé and that he is Supposedly Above everyone, but for me it is not Thus, for me, Benzema has Much more Quality than him, however I would like Benzema to be able to score the goals that we are used to, and thus be able to get out more in action.

In fact, everyone in the world talks about Benzema as that Promise who Went to Saudi Football to shine but things still haven't gone as they are, I think he needs a little more motivation, he has a good friend who is CR7, And I'm sure that any advice from that Country will Ask him...

He believed that for now he must adapt to his team that takes his confidence and that can make him different from the others, he cannot put himself in an orbit of low energy vibration again, he has to raise his spirits and I think that if he is gone then It did him good, if so, then we need to see the goals of a Gatic who is always willing to do things with all the love of the world for football and that is something that we hope for, I think it is time for him to show himself. Let's see if Deschamps puts him in for the French National team because he is a guard of experience and great skill.

This has probably been one of the luckiest signings any sport as seen from the perspective of the player. He has been impressive during that one year when they won the Champions League and he literally scored every single game and it was unbelievable at some point. I agree that he deserved to win the Ballon d'Or in 2022, but apart from that season he was two levels below his best. Don't get me wrong here, but I can't remember one reason in which he reached the level he reached in 2021/22 and I acknowledge this as it was outrageous.

Personally, I think the club is on the losing side and if I'm to advise them, I'll tell the club management to let go of him do they can sign other European players to replace him

What I hope is that things can change for him, because in reality this team has a great player, that is something that things can be changing radically, I can say that Benzema has not adapted, perhaps because of the language , for many reasons, because of the weather, all this does affect a player, but above all the Communit y, one of the things you can do quickly is learn +Arabic so that things are better, it is a great opportunity for you do it, I don't know, but something is happening to the player, at this moment I am not speculating, but it could be said that since he has already joined the team things can change for the better, I hope so, just me I remember everything he has done for Madrid, for his lifelong club, with everything he shared with the most prominent players and because his great category has led him to win the best football tournaments.

It's time for this player to give it his all, because otherwise he could leave Arab football in a very bad way, it's not the right idea because basically this is where he should shine, he shouldn't be looking for anything else, I know he left Arabnia Maybe he was able to solve his problems, but it seems that there are many mysteries, it is not known why it is reported that the player does not perform and well, there is room for speculation that it is something very Personal.

Karim Benzema to Arsenal: Former Real Madrid star's current salary, stats, height and latest transfer news

Al-Ittihad striker and Real Madrid legend Karim Benzema has found himself at the centre of a transfer storm despite his senior age of 36 years old.

The talisman was linked with a surprise move to the Premier League in January, despite having only put pen to paper on a big-money contract in Saudi Arabia last summer.

Source: https://www.nationalworld.com/sport/football/karim-benzema-to-arsenal-former-real-madrid-stars-current-salary-stats-height-and-latest-transfer-news-4525878

Well, it is not known very well, until now this type of information has come out but it is something that I see as very peaceful and unlikely to happen, the fact that he goes back to the PL well I think it would be a repeat for the Frenchman, although I think that DB should not leave things like this with the Arab team, he should adapt and shine there, just as many have done, he is a very good friend of CR7, and well that should mean that he can meet with him to see how I can help him, considering how CR7 is, I think I would have no problem giving him advice, so I think it is something very appropriate that he could do it, they may communicate or something, but I think Brenzema should do better in that type of football.

Some say that moving to Arab football means going down a level and no, not at all, for me Arab football is just as CR7 said, it is above Ligue 1, and obviously it is far above MLS. .

Al Hilal and Al Nassr are trending in SPL, they don't give up as we all expects, instead they absorb and reciprocate their energy to become more energizing for the balance level of these clubs. Al Ittihad players are good enough but they're not consider big names comparable to the undisputed GOAT in football. In the first place, there's absolutely no player comparable to Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Arabia Pro League. Ronaldo is the light that pave way for most of these European players, we shouldn't forget that in a hurry. Things will falls easier for players that have shoots their best to become key players for their players.

I can agree that the main target is to attract people's attention around the world to watch Saudi Pro League. If more people are watching Saudi Pro League, there will be more companies and partnerships joining the league development. When Saudi Pro League has many super stars in football, all the parties in Saudi will get the advantage of its popularity. I think they already reach this target. However, the consistency and quality of the players are also important because it is a part of the entertainment. People will be unsatisfied if the super stars always played underperformance.

Saudi teams have huge money, they will always attract more top players joining Saudi Pro League. The Saudi teams won't be worried about the wealth of the players, why? As long as the players can give the entertainment for Saudi, they won't mind with high salaries.

The changes made by several teams in the Saudi Arabian League have made the Saudi Arabian League increasingly attract more viewers throughout the world. Well, where I live, the Saudi Arabian League is becoming increasingly popular because of none other than the big influence of Ronaldo who joined Al Nassr. So it's not surprising that Ronaldo big name is what made the popularity of the Saudi League soar as the league is the most influential at the Asian level.

However, if Ronaldo no longer plays in the Saudi Arabian league, I think the popularity of the Saudi Arabian league will decrease and that must be considered as best as possible by the management of the Saudi Arabian league. They must be able to maintain the Saudi Rana League which is the best compared to other Asian leagues. If you look at Ronaldo who continues to contribute to Al Nassr, of course the fans hope that Ronaldo will stay with Al Nassr for a long time.

So it's not surprising that Ronaldo big name is what made the popularity of the Saudi League soar as the league is the most influential at the Asian level.

Saudi Professional League becomes more famous when Cristiano Ronaldo joined them and some other star players from Europe participated in like Benzema, Neymar, Mane, Brozovic ... This league gets more traffic rate from European football fans as some of them will watch matches in Saudi Professional League. It's their league growth globally but in their nation, the growth is not too much. There are many matches with so little audiences on stadiums and it's not good for their league attraction. Playing in many stadiums in Saudi Arabia is like playing matches during pandemic and serious quarantine.

However, if Ronaldo no longer plays in the Saudi Arabian league, I think the popularity of the Saudi Arabian league will decrease and that must be considered as best as possible by the management of the Saudi Arabian league. They must be able to maintain the Saudi Rana League which is the best compared to other Asian leagues. If you look at Ronaldo who continues to contribute to Al Nassr, of course the fans hope that Ronaldo will stay with Al Nassr for a long time.

He shown some signals that he will become their league brand ambassador and can be an owner of a club there or spent money to buy shares of a big club there.

Effects from Cristiano Ronaldo on Saudi Professional League are already seen but probably will become bigger and more meaningful in coming years like Zico's effects on Japanese League.

Yes, that's how they promote their league to be watched by football fans from all over the world, if they don't do that, the Saudi League will not grow further and only Arabs will watch matches in the Saudi League, so they bring in several famous star players who have many fans to attract more interest from football fans to watch their favorite players play in different leagues and always support them wherever their favorite players are, but there are also those whose careers fade after playing in the Saudi league because declining performance can make fans disappointed and not again supporting his favorite player.

It doesn't matter how expensive the star players are because the Saudi League's finances are very good so they don't have a problem having to spend quite a lot of money to buy star players from different leagues, if only Lionel Messi were in the Saudi League, maybe now the Saudi League is getting more famous but unfortunately Lionel Messi prefers MLS and spends his football career there even though we all know that the Saudi League is better than MLS. Likewise, it is rumored that Karim Benzema does not feel at home in the Saudi league, but in fact this is still just a rumor because Karim Benzema is still playing with Ittihad to this day.

I was not seeing it but Al Hilala remains undefeated in this competition and only two draws, mega campaing they are doing, and all this without Neymar really impressive, only 10 goals allowed half less than the second best defense team who has only 22 goals allowed, so they are making good on offensive and also in the defense. Claps for the coach.

With the very impressive results that Al Hilal managed to have this season without Neymar, then why did Al Hilal buy Neymar and I am very curious about the purpose of Al Hilal buying Neymar. Whether Al Hilal just following the trend or Al Hilal really purely aims to strengthen its squad with star players like Neymar. But yes, the fact is that Neymar has only played a few times since Neymar arrival at Al Hilal, if I'm not mistaken Neymar only played 3 matches for Al Hilal. After that, Neymar injured until now and made Neymar body fatter now like a retired player, it's very funny. But indeed, as long as Al Hilal is still able to pay Neymar salary then it will be fine. But yes, if I consider what is happening right now about Neymar condition, it doesn't seem like a good situation either because with a fatter body like that it will certainly make Neymar unable to play as well as before.

In early days of this season their best intention of bringing these big names were they were looking for big fan base and this was possible with the name of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi but as Messi rejected their offer and go to MLS then Saudi League organizers were looking for another top player from the South America, and they have Neymar even all we have known about him, he is mostly injury prone and also having many other troubles but still Al Hilal take this risk which ends in fail so after this now they are still had good quality players which are giving their best, and they are capable of having good performance with most chances in this season they are going to win title, and we will have some good changes from them in coming season which will give them good improvement.

The primary aim of the Saudi government to finance the biggest stars in football is to bring immense viewership. Playing very well is only an additional reward. Fans and the media will be interested if big football stars are brought into the Saudi League. When they show interest, it implies many cable corporations all over the world will pay the Saudi League for the right to broadcast the matches.

At present, the Saudi League keeps on putting resources into bringing numerous football stars. However, there is something to worry about if these stars stay long, they are now rich and they probably would not consider extensions any longer very much like Benzema who is looking for an exit.

I can agree that the main target is to attract people's attention around the world to watch Saudi Pro League. If more people are watching Saudi Pro League, there will be more companies and partnerships joining the league development. When Saudi Pro League has many super stars in football, all the parties in Saudi will get the advantage of its popularity. I think they already reach this target. However, the consistency and quality of the players are also important because it is a part of the entertainment. People will be unsatisfied if the super stars always played underperformance.

Saudi teams have huge money, they will always attract more top players joining Saudi Pro League. The Saudi teams won't be worried about the wealth of the players, why? As long as the players can give the entertainment for Saudi, they won't mind with high salaries.

The only problem is how long saudi can only rely with the money to help the club gets demand by recruiting european players? we have seen that many times that if this is not fully worked. You can see that some players have been trying to exodus back again to the european competition.
This is also destroying the reputation of the league as well as there would be some bad reviews about this, i think that this can become the consequence when you were hiring people caused by money. They were not willing to play in this league but they came due to the money.
So, we can take this as the main evaluation to consider whether it was successful or not.
