Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[rendravolt]

The interest in Saudis for buying more superstar players is not going to end at all.
I see some people they say the Saudis will stop investing in football and instead, they will start paying attention to the other things to invest in their country, but I don't think if they do that because even now I see some superstars and famous players are linked to the Saudis for the next season.
Other than some players like Salah and coaches like Mourinho, now it seems they want to start sending offers for Kevin De Bruyne the key player of Manchester City. However, Kevin De Bruyne leaving Manchester City can definitely damage the team but there is still the possibility for him to leave and accept the huge money he can earn in Saudi Arabia.

I heard this rumor a while ago but honestly I wasn't sure what I had heard. I mean, it's impossible for De Bruyne to just give up and want to play in the Saudi League because he is currently still at his best performance in Europe and it's possible that Pep Guardiola will still trust him to stay at Manchester City. This is no different from Toni Kroos who is still retained by Real Madrid considering he is still a key player in midfield and vice versa with De Bruyne's role for Manchester City.

Maybe even if De Bruyne moves to the Saudi league, it won't be now and it might still take several more years before he finally gets there. But his decision could change if in the next few years the Saudi league starts to quiet down, then he won't join. So now the full challenge is on the Saudi league, whether they can consistently provide something for European players or not, especially when it comes to large salaries.

Even if one day De Bruyne leaves for a Saudi Arabian club, it won't be a big problem because Manchester City can bring in more talented young players to replace his position.
This rumor could come true because I remember that de Bruyen really wants to compete with Ronaldo before he gets older and even though de Bruyne will be retained, if his contract expires, the player has the right to determine whether he stays or wants to follow Ronaldo to Saudi Pro League.
Even though this rumor could happen, my hope is that De Bruyne will stay with Manchester City for another season and can accept an offer from the Saudi Pro League.

That's absolutely right and I agree that in the future Manchester City will not have so much difficulty finding players who are much younger and more talented because as long as Pep Guardiola is the coach then this will definitely be safe.

But if you talk about De Bruyne wanting to compete with Ronaldo, isn't that wrong? I mean De Bruyne is a midfielder, while Ronaldo is a striker and the interests of the two are different, where De Bruyne is more of a servant for other players so they can score goals and Ronaldo is more of a predator in front of goal who is always aiming for the top scorer list.

I don't think it makes sense if De Bruyne's move is just because he wants to compete with Ronaldo and even if De Bruyne moves there are only two reasons, the first is that he is finished with Europe and wants to make more money at the end of his retirement.

Even though the teams from the SPL are targeting several star players, if the star players are not willing to leave Europe then the SPL will not get these players no matter how hard they try. Pep will not easily let KDB go to the SPL because we know KDB is a key player that Man City has, even though he is no longer young, KDB's appearance is still quite good. When KDB was injured, Haaland seemed to be having difficulties at Man City, but after KDB returned, Man City came back strong in all the matches they played, I think keeping KDB for the next 3-4 years is not a problem because KDB now has 32 years old.

I also think that De Bruyne will not leave Man City in the next few years as long as he continues to get contract renewals at Man City. Because he definitely realizes that he is really needed at Man City and his name is also becoming increasingly famous after he joined and contributed greatly to Man City.

But SPL clubs will definitely not give up on getting more top players from Europe. For example, several clubs from the SPL have also started approaching several players from big clubs in Spain such as Atletico Madrid. So next season there may still be new names coming to the SPL from players who are quite popular in Europe.

It's impossible to happen, de bruyne has become the most important player in the club. It will be a blunder for manchester city to sell him. De bruyen is the only hope for city to get back to back UCL in any seasons. Selling him will be also decreasing a half of city's power which is not good.
It must be noted that if de bruyne is also helping club in owning the game and it was also pushing club to have better gameplay in all of competitions. City was always struggling to win the game when de bruyne was not playing. Having him gave very big impact to the club.
Saudi pro league has changed its policy and it's impossible for the club to get de bruyne caused by it will be also costing saudi a lot of money. No gaurantee if that plan is gonna be success ful as well.

But SPL clubs will definitely not give up on getting more top players from Europe. For example, several clubs from the SPL have also started approaching several players from big clubs in Spain such as Atletico Madrid. So next season there may still be new names coming to the SPL from players who are quite popular in Europe.

That's totally wrong mate, SPL is gonna change its mind about de bruyne soon. It's caused by the fact that if saudi pro league is stopping its effort in spending as much money as possible to get european players. This is also greatly impacting all of european players.
We do know that how european players used saudi pro league as a way to dump their useless players. Remember that saudi pro leagye bought some old players last season which is proving how saudi pro league was only providing the way for european clubs to sell its garbage players for big amounts of money.

I dont really think Kevin De Bruyne is gonna get out from Manchester City this season for me he is gonna remain for at least two seasons more, he is still at very high level and with hunger to win more things, the only thing that can male him get out is Guardiola bringing much more younger blood but i dont see it happening.

Look, I understand the line of thinking here, and its not totally off-base. But Kevin De Bruyne staying at Manchester City? Thats the smartest play, the best deal for both sides. This guy, even in his 30s, is playing world-class football. He's hungry, a winner, wants those titles. Guardiola, he's no dummy. He knows the value De Bruyne brings, the experience, the leadership. Sure, younger guys are always in the picture, but De Bruyne's impact is undeniable. He's central, a core player, and his contract isnt some throwaway detail. Im telling you, we'll be seeing plenty more De Bruyne magic at City.

Now, some say age is a factor, that he'll lose a step next season. Easy there, lets not count our chickens. This is a consummate professional, a master of his craft. Its not just about running fast, its the football IQ, controlling the game - nobody does it better. City's smart, they know this, Pep knows this. So anyone worried, they can relax. Kevin's not done yet, not by a long shot.

[Palakka]

I also think that De Bruyne will not leave Man City in the next few years as long as he continues to get contract renewals at Man City. Because he definitely realizes that he is really needed at Man City and his name is also becoming increasingly famous after he joined and contributed greatly to Man City.

But SPL clubs will definitely not give up on getting more top players from Europe. For example, several clubs from the SPL have also started approaching several players from big clubs in Spain such as Atletico Madrid. So next season there may still be new names coming to the SPL from players who are quite popular in Europe.

If he gets a new contract from Manchester City, of course he will not leave Manchester City next season, but what if he no longer gets a contract?
De Bruyne has a contract until 2025 with Manchester City, and that's why Manchester City have full control over De Bruyne's future at the moment, I think his age and also his injury-prone condition now allows Manchester City to sell him next season to an Arab League team, at the moment I think Manchester City still have a chance to make a profit with the sale of De Bruyne than they will lose him for free in 2025.

If you say De Bruyne still has the trust of Guardiola, of course it is true and his condition is probably almost the same as Gundogan previously who did continue to gain the trust of Guardiola to fill the main squad and even Gundogan kept saying he would stay at Manchester City, but in reality at that time he went to Barcelona at the end of the season,  And that's why I think when a player has the trust of the coach not necessarily the club management will not sell him, besides that currently Manchester City have set a price of 100 million euros for Arab teams who want to sign De Bruyne and doesn't that indicate that De Bruyne's career will end soon at Manchester City?

Kevin's not done yet, not by a long shot.

If we talk about talent and skills, what you say are true but sometimes football is not only about skills and abilities there are many other factors, one of them from the business side. Manchester City might get a lot of financial benefits if they release Kevin De Bruyne in the next season, if they have to wait 2-3 more seasons, there is no guarantee of market value as good as this season. Based on transfermarkt.com Kevin De Buyne's market value continues to decline in every season and we know the main factor is age.

If Kevin De Bruyne moved to Saudi Pro League next season, will Manchester City end? not sure, because there must be other players who can replace him but if Manchester City hold this player in 2-3 more seasons will Manchester City lose financial? yes of course, because in fact De Bruyne market value continues to decline well, I think Manchester City management will consider it.

[tusandii]

Even if one day De Bruyne leaves for a Saudi Arabian club, it won't be a big problem because Manchester City can bring in more talented young players to replace his position.
This rumor could come true because I remember that de Bruyen really wants to compete with Ronaldo before he gets older and even though de Bruyne will be retained, if his contract expires, the player has the right to determine whether he stays or wants to follow Ronaldo to Saudi Pro League.
Even though this rumor could happen, my hope is that De Bruyne will stay with Manchester City for another season and can accept an offer from the Saudi Pro League.

Currently, Kevin De Bruyne on the golden age and has consistent performance for playing with Manchester City or several top European teams if want leaves City one day later, he will not hurry up accept Saudi Pro League teams offer because he has brilliant career for playing on several top European teams.
So far still comfortable position with Manchester City and Pep Guardiola keep trusting him in his scheme to be regular players.
Usually some top European players priority keep playing on the top level competition after raising over 35 years old and loss place as regular position for accepting offer from Saudi Pro League teams, but can't expected will Saudi Arabia club have stable financial in few years later after spending much money for payment salaery?

It's true that it's better for Man City to extend Kevin De Bruyne's contract than to lose this important player for free next season because Kevin De Bruyne's contract is only until 2025, and I think Kevin De Bruyne will stay a little longer at Man City than he decided earlier to is in the SPL because if he decides to leave the European league then his football career will end and his popularity will quickly fade if he is in the SPL.

Even though Kevin de Bruyne really wants to compete with Ronaldo before Ronaldo retires, he also has to think carefully that the SPL is a different league, he has to adapt first if he wants to compete with Ronaldo. Meanwhile Ronaldo himself has performed well in the SPL and is the best player and Kevin de Bruyne will not be able to compete with Ronaldo even though Kevin de Bruyne is also a good player but Ronaldo is still a better player than him.

[temple]

I have heard about this rumor that they want to sign Kevin De Bruyne a while ago, but in my opinion De Bruyne is not the typical player who is waiting for an offer from Saudi Arabia to leave his beloved Manchester City and earn some more money. He is one of the best paid players in Manchester City, which I guess is quite ok already. Of course the Saudi Professional clubs can raise this like 4x or 5x, but do you guys think that De Bruyne is the kind of guy who wants to live in Saudi Arabia? I think he also sees what's going on there with Ronaldo or Neymar. Nobody is interested in these guys anymore. Manchester City would definitely want to keep him for another three years and I doubt he would be willing to let that opportunity go and instead take the money.

We don't know whether De Bryune is interested to play in Saudi League or not. As far as I know, there is no official statement from him about this. If he still wants to have a good career in a competitive league, he must stay in Europe. Even if Man City won't extend his contract in the next year, De Bruyne can move to another team in Europe. It won't be difficult for him to find out a new team because many teams are interested to sign him. Anyway, it seems you still believe in his career at Man City. But we heard that Man City plans to sell him and wants to sign a younger player to replace his position.

There is no reason for him to come up with a public statement as that speculation is artificially driven by some dudes on the Internet or the media. His contract is going for another year until 2025 anyway and I expect him to be very quiet about his future and to insist that he is going to fulfill the contract and that they will talk with each other maybe in Winter 2024/2025. It is the right thing to do I think as he has the leverage that he would otherwise leave as a free agent and if he now plays a perfect season until the end and then starts the new season in great fashion, he has all the aces in his hands. There is no need for him to rush anything at any point.

See the present state of Manchester City, they're suffering without them. Saudi Pro League clubs will place sights on key players and at the end of the day, they end up not accomplishing their targets, it's becoming more stressing and set up an alarm for everyone. Pep Guardiola knows his players and he's looking forward to add more promising players, he's very tactical. Kelvin De Bruyne have not accomplished the basic necessities, he still have 3-4 years to play European football because he's a key man and doing the ultimate jobs.

Saudi teams begin to realize that they shouldn't only sign top players, but they must sign valuable players who can bring big impacts to the whole teams. De Bruyne is a typical player who can manage the attacking, he knows well how to be the leader in the midfield line. That's why Man City has a bad attacking pattern when De Bruyne was injured for few months.

Pep Guardiola must be aware of the Bruyne's role in the midfield line of Man City, he must try to make De Bruyne having a contract extension for the next 2-3 years at least. If Man City lets De Bruyne goes, Man City won't have a leader in the midfield line anymore. It will be a serious mistake to ignore the role of Kevin De Bruyne. It is very difficult to get the replacement of a typical player like De Bruyne.

Karim Benzema the superstar player of Al Ittihad finally got back in the team and he is in a good for again. Al Ittihad paid too much money for this player and they were expecting to see a much better performance from Benzema in Al Ittihad but he was mostly injured and this Karim Benzema we saw was not like the superstar we saw in Real Madrid when he. was playing there
Now it seems Al Ittihad is happy because they have Benzema in team pieces of training again and in the news, we saw some pics from him training with other players.
However, it seems this player doesn't have a good relationship with their coach and there is a chance for him to some more games before he can earn the trust of the coach again and play for Al Ittihad.

This player was overhyped in his first season and he couldn't meet up due to the pressure he was facing and now, he's gradually recovering and doing the great tasks to win good ties and qualities as a frontline. Karim Benzema is aging and there's quite alot of qualities he failed to meet up in his new team. Al Ittihad should understand the situation  on ground, Karim Benzema will not be able to deliver all the time perhaps he's present to ensure the frontline is working excellently good, he's holding up the burden of netting more goals for his new side relentlessly.

Kelvin De Bruyne is one of the best players of the Manchester City set up and at the age of 32 I think he still have a lot to offer the club and that's why I don't think the club manager Pep Guardiola would want to let him leave the club at the end of the season. The reports that a lot of Saudi Arabian clubs are trying to get the services of I think isn't gonna yield any fruit because even if the Belgium international decides to leave Manchester City at the end of the current season, I don't he'll choose to play in the Middle East country at any time soon.
That being said, saying that Manchester City will not have a leader in the midfielder if Kelvin De Bruyne leaves the club I think is a statement taken too far because at Manchester City, there are other great midfield players that can control the midfield in the absence of Kelvin De Bruyne and again, the club also have the financial strength to sign great midfield players that'll replace De Bruyne should he leave the club.

I know that Al Ittihad have paid a lot to sign Benzema, but what they have spent does not guarantee that they will get what they want, and they should have realized that from the start. because as you said, we can't see a player performing well throughout the season, because they also sometimes experience obstacles, especially since Benzema is relatively new to joining them.

I don't know for sure what is going on between the coach and Benzema, but I also see that they don't have a harmonious relationship, or in other words they still have personal problems. However, they should be more professional, because if they are like that, it is their team as a whole that will be harmed. Even though they have problems, they must always put the interests of the club above their problems. They already have a lot of experience and that way they should be more mature in solving problems. Because I'm sure if there is a problem between them it starts from something trivial.

Pep is not yet done with De Bruyne as Man City football lies within him. He is the key player there, and that makes it impossible for him to leave the club now, that the club is very strong and want to achieve more trophies to the ones they have gotten already. If De Bruyne is out of City, I don't think that there will be any player fit to replace him that Pep will bring into the club. We saw what happened to City when De Bruyne was on injury this season. City performance de lined and they were finding it difficult to win matches, but the moment he came back on his feet, they started winning matches, and he even scored one goal coming in from the bench in the second half. This is why I don't think it is time for SPL to think that Pep will let go of Dr Bruyne.

To be honest, I'm quite annoyed with this player and I wouldn't call him a star player if he continues to behave like this. His inconsistency often disrupts the performance of other players and the problems he often causes with the coach sometimes make the dressing room less harmonious. Luckily, this time he realized and was willing to make the decision to train together with his partner and I couldn't stop thinking how long he would want to be like a child.

Al-Ittihad paid him so dearly and he shouldn't have behaved like that. I know Benzema is a star player but he should be able to set a good example for local players in the Saudi league. I think his expertise as a striker could be passed on more to the players around him instead of continuing to make things worse and disappear without a trace. I hope that this time he really comes back and doesn't make it unclear again just because he often underperformed with Al-Ittihad.

Al Ittihad must expect great performance from Benzema. Sadly, Benzema often has a problem with the injury for a long time. That's why Benzema failed to show his best performance this season. I think Benzema can show his best performance in the next season if he can improve his fitness and physical strength. For this season, I think the target of Al Ittihad is to finish in the top 4 of Saudi league. They seems to be difficult to finish in the 3rd or 2nd place, the point gap is quite large.

However, it seems this player doesn't have a good relationship with their coach and there is a chance for him to some more games before he can earn the trust of the coach again and play for Al Ittihad.

It will be over when the season ends. I'm sure Al Ittihad won't keep the coach, they will change the coach with the new one. The current coach failed to keep the good performance of Al Ittihad like in the last season. If there is a problem between Benzema and the coach, I believe Al Ittihad management will prefer to fire the coach over Benzema.

This season Benzema failed to live up to expectations, he failed to show his best performance with Al Ittihad. It must be admitted, many fans are disappointed with the performance of the former Real Madrid player, it seems like Al Ittihad investment has failed miserably this season. Even though he has returned to active training, it is not certain that Benzema performance will return to sharpness on the front lines. Previously, it was rumored that Benzema would return to play in Europe, because his relationship with the coach was not harmonious.

This season Benzema failed to live up to expectations, he failed to show his best performance with Al Ittihad. It must be admitted, many fans are disappointed with the performance of the former Real Madrid player, it seems like Al Ittihad investment has failed miserably this season. Even though he has returned to active training, it is not certain that Benzema performance will return to sharpness on the front lines. Previously, it was rumored that Benzema would return to play in Europe, because his relationship with the coach was not harmonious.

Benzema seems to have to leave Al Ittihad. The reason is, Benzema's poor performance and current situation is not caused by normal factors, such as the need for adaptation or other things. However, Benzema doesn't seem to be suitable for Al Ittihad. Because from the start Benzema joined Al Ittihad, I personally also initially expected something satisfactory from Benzema. Then at the start of the season Benzema did not perform well at Al Ittihad. But at that time I was still thinking positively and I thought Benzema needed to adapt at Al Ittihad. Then a few weeks later it was reported that Benzema had a bad relationship with his coach at Al Ittihad, and in my opinion at that time it was the Al Ittihad coach who was at fault. So when the Al Ittihad coach is replaced, I think Benzema will find his best game again.

However, it turns out that even though the Al Ittihad coach was replaced, Benzema still performed poorly. Apart from that, Benzema is also reported to have a bad relationship with the new coach at Al Ittihad. So now I have a clear conclusion, Al Ittihad or the coach cannot be blamed, because Benzema has not performed well this season. But in essence, Benzema's poor performance was caused by Benzema himself. Basically, this may be because Benzema is no longer young. Or it could also be caused by compulsion. This means that when Benzema was first offered a contract by Al Ittihad, perhaps at that time Benzema was not too interested in joining. However, because the salary offered by Al Ittihad was very large, Benzema was willing to accept the contract. So in essence, Benzema is just after his money, and in terms of his performance on the pitch, he would probably make him number two.

So even though Benzema has now started training again with his colleagues at Al Ittihad, I think it will end the same, namely that Benzema's performance will most likely be less than satisfactory. And my prediction is that Benzema will most likely resign or leave Al Ittihad after this season ends.

Maybe because Karim Benzema has not been able to adapt well so his performance has not been fully optimal, players who do not have good chemistry between other players or their coaches find it difficult to develop into great players. Even though Karim Benzema is a good striker that Real Madrid has but when he Al Ittihad Karim Benzema is not very productive and in fact the club is experiencing a decline, I don't know what is wrong, but what Al Ittihad needs to improve is the chemistry between Karim Benzema and other players and also the coach so that this can make their performance optimal and able to work together well. to bring Al Ittihad back to success.

Even if Karim Benzema really wants to return to the European League, who will accommodate Karim Benzema to the club even though he is currently old and Karim Benzema's salary is very large, so the club that wants to accommodate him must think hard about his salary and buy Karim Benzema to Al Ittihad or just a loan option. It seems that many European players have difficulty adapting to the Saudi League, so they really want to leave the Saudi League even though they are relatively new to the Saudi League competition.

To be honest, I'm quite annoyed with this player and I wouldn't call him a star player if he continues to behave like this. His inconsistency often disrupts the performance of other players and the problems he often causes with the coach sometimes make the dressing room less harmonious. Luckily, this time he realized and was willing to make the decision to train together with his partner and I couldn't stop thinking how long he would want to be like a child.

Al-Ittihad paid him so dearly and he shouldn't have behaved like that. I know Benzema is a star player but he should be able to set a good example for local players in the Saudi league. I think his expertise as a striker could be passed on more to the players around him instead of continuing to make things worse and disappear without a trace. I hope that this time he really comes back and doesn't make it unclear again just because he often underperformed with Al-Ittihad.

This season Benzema failed to live up to expectations, he failed to show his best performance with Al Ittihad. It must be admitted, many fans are disappointed with the performance of the former Real Madrid player, it seems like Al Ittihad investment has failed miserably this season. Even though he has returned to active training, it is not certain that Benzema performance will return to sharpness on the front lines. Previously, it was rumored that Benzema would return to play in Europe, because his relationship with the coach was not harmonious.

Yes, it is true that Benzema was not able to play at his best with Al-Ittihad according to everyone expectations, but actually he was not that bad because he still made quite big contribution to Al-Ittihad while playing there.
At least Benzema is still much better than Neymar who did not contribute anything to the team he was playing for, this is an example that even though Benzema is considered bad, there are still things that are much worse.
If there is good communication and the right training pattern and there is adequate support from the team then this can have big influence on Benzema success as great player, he will become very sharp striker if all of this can be fulfilled properly.
Maybe Al Ittihad will still give him chance next season, if Benzema can play well I think he will be retained and the possibility of returning to Europe could be very small.
