Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Leviathan.007]

Cristiano Ronaldo plays in the Saudi club Al Nasser and as you heard last season I heard rumors that Al Nasser could play in the Champions League from the Saudi League but it is not as simple as we heard. There are many journalists who are claiming with different explanations that Al Nasser should play in the Champions League but there is no confirmation from UEFA. Although there is no such guarantee, there is a possibility that the top local teams of the Saudi League will play in the Champions League. Saudi League teams only need to focus on their performance and improve their performance every season to fulfill their dream of playing in the Champions League.

If the point is that Al-Nasr is a popular club, then I don’t think the Champions League needs any additional popularity, and I also doubt that UEFA will take this step just for the sake of Ronaldo, so that he can continue to play in the Champions League. And if they let Al-Nasr play in the UEFA Champions League, then will need to think about giving such an opportunity to other best clubs from around the world, so I think that this will not happen.

If the Saudi club Al Naser gets the opportunity to play in the Champions League, then Al Hilal and Al Ittihad will definitely complain about why they are not getting the opportunity to play in the Champions League despite competing hard in the Saudi League. Al Nasser, Al Hilal and Al Ittihad are three big clubs in Saudi League and every season there is usually competition with these three clubs, so if any club from Saudi League is given the opportunity to play in Champions League then these three teams should be considered. If UEFA thinks that only one team from the Saudi League will be allowed to play in the Champions League, they can choose any team by changing the rules of the competition.

If UEFA wants to pick just one team to participate in the Champions League, it should be the club that wins the league. This will make SPL more interesting because those three clubs that you mentioned above will want to put in their best to see that one of them becomes the first. However, we know that Al lttihad is the strongest in SPL as they have been the club winning SPL back to back and they will always be the one to represent SPL if one slot is given to them. But they are not in Europe which might make it impossible.

I think this case is already closed and there is no chance anymore for any Saudi teams to be in the Champions League. In fact, After Ronaldo and some superstar players joined this league they wanted to be in the UEFA Championship League but it was just a rumor. To be honest there is no chance for any Saudi or the other Asian teams to play in this tournament because if one team plays in UEFA Champions League the other teams will ask the same thing.
No matter how much they spend for their teams, there is no chance for Al Nassr or the other teams to do that.

The concept of Al Nassr or any other Saudi team participating in the UEFA Champions League is lovely, but it will always be a fantasy. Since UEFA is limited to Europe, only European clubs can compete. The AFC Champions League, for Asia's greatest teams, is played by Al Nassr, Al Hilal, and Al Ittihad

However, imagine UEFA may expand since football unites people and is universally understood. Al Hilal, with a long history and Saudi League victories, or Al Nassr would spice up the rivalry. Fans from around the world can bond over the game. UEFA's tough regional criteria and the AFC Champions League's prestige should temper our optimism, even though this position seems promising

I've said something concerning this subject matter recently and that's why I'm surprised to see it again on the thread but since it's repeated, I think it'll not be a bad idea to still put the records straight. The UEFA Champions League competition is Europe's most prestigious club football competition and it's totally exclusive to European clubs and should the body in charge of the competition which is the UEFA decides to review the competitions in other to accommodate clubs from other continents, then they'll not be doing it for just one club.
Considering the current rules and guidelines of the competition, there's no provision that allows a club that's based outside Europe to participate in the competition so we're never gonna see a Saudi club participate in the UEFA Champions League competition anytime soon.

The UEFA Champions League ranks first and becomes very important for everyone. The tournament is listed to be among one of the major leagues in Europe and it becomes priority for all clubs to win it for purpose to stationed in the category of top clubs in the world.

Asian League is different and we realized how competitive it becomes. They have elite clubs fighting to anticipate in the European top tournaments, I don't think they've a chance to win because they're busy triggering their vast numbers of budget for the season.

Al-Ittihad has signed a new coach, namely Stefano Pioli (former Milan coach) and has fired the previous coach Marcelo Gallardo. It seems that the Al-Ittihad project with Marcelo Gallardo didn't go very well last season so management decided to fire him. On the other hand, the poor relationship with their star, Karim Benzema, might also be the reason why he was fired so quickly.

It is good that Al Ittihad signed more popular coach. But I don't think Stefano Pioli is a special coach, he only could win 1 trophy so far. Even if he already managed many clubs, he often failed to win a trophy. The best achievement of Stefano Pioli was winning Serie A trophy in the season 2021-2022. Anyway, I also hope Stefano Pioli will have a better relationship with Benzema. So Benzema can perform better for the next season.

With Stefano Pioli's experience, it is hoped that Al-Ittihad can improve its performance which had dropped drastically during last season and can compete again to win the Saudi pro league title. Stefano Pioli will be contracted for 3 years and during that time I hope he is the right choice and Al-Ittihad will not have to change coaches again.

Not really sure that Stefano Pioli's experience to improve the performance of Al Ittihad immediately. But since he already managed Inter Milan and AC Milan that are big teams in Europe, he is expected to manage Al Ittihad well. Anyway, no teams will guarantee to keep the same coach for many seasons. Stefano Pioli can be fired soon if he is unlikely to improve the performance of Al Ittihad.

The concept of Al Nassr or any other Saudi team participating in the UEFA Champions League is lovely, but it will always be a fantasy. Since UEFA is limited to Europe, only European clubs can compete. The AFC Champions League, for Asia's greatest teams, is played by Al Nassr, Al Hilal, and Al Ittihad

Agree. It is interesting but it seems unlikely to happen. UCL is for European clubs only, there is no way that Asian teams will join UCL. We already have AFC champions league in Asia. If all the top clubs in the world to join a competition, there should be another competition that can provide them. FIFA Club World Cup is the competition for all the best teams around the world. So, why Saudi teams need to join UCL? Saudi teams can join FIFA Club World Cup but the best teams only can join it. Al Hilal and Al Nassr can join the competition of FIFA Club World Cup 2025.

Yes you are right, moreover the Champions League is not a small league obviously it is the biggest league in Europe and every club wants to play there if one of the Saudi clubs plays there it will cause anger from other leagues who feel it is unfair just because Al Nassr has Ronaldo so I think that that won't happen until any time before the Saudi League has met the requirements to play there.
I think it's quite a waste of time to think about this. The Saudi League must continue to progress even though they haven't had the opportunity to play in the UCL. One day they will definitely achieve it no matter how long they struggle. Basically, it's not easy to build a league to reach a level like the League Europe.

There is definitely a business side to this. The Saudi league is a rich financial league and currently many European players are in this Saudi league, so Ronaldo fans and Neymar fans follow the Saudi league directly. If these two clubs are allowed to play in the Champions League, UEFA will be more financially prosperous. Not only will UEFA benefit financially, but the popularity of the Saudi League will increase more and it will be seen that the number of investors in the Saudi League is increasing. However, the argument you have presented here is certainly acceptable, but if UEFA wants, it is certainly possible that one or two teams from the Saudi League will qualify to play in the Champions League.

The Saudi Arabian league has developed rapidly at this time after the arrival of many stars, previously maybe we never watched the Saudi Arabian league because it was not competitive and also league outside Europe which did not have any popularity at all, but Ronaldo arrival  to Al Nassr has changed and increasing the popularity of Al Nassr as one of the big clubs in Arabia, which indirectly also makes the Saudi League the center of attention of today for football fans, the arrival of many European star players to the Saudi Arabian League has of course triggered the desire of the Saudi Arabian League authorities to lobby UEFA, so that Saudi Arabian league championship can play in the Champions League or European League in the future.

The UEFA League is of course one of the leagues that many people are most interested in, so of course it will increase the teams income through broadcasting rights and also ticket sales later, but I think if the Arab League clubs join UEFA, it will actually make it difficult for them to make fantastic transfers in the future because after all UEFA has regulations that limit the amount spent on purchasing players so far by a club, apart from that it seems that the distance between one European club and another is quite long, so of course this will be an obstacle for Arab clubs play optimally later in the champions league.

When our favorite stars gradually came to this league, we followed this league more than before. When Cristiano Ronaldo first came to Saudi Arabia, we first came to know about the Saudi League and since then we tried to know the updates of the Saudi League regularly and tried to watch the games. After Ronaldo, when more popular European stars like Neymar, Karim Benzema, Sadio Mané came to this league, we started watching the games of this league regularly. If a team from this league qualifies to play in the Champions League, then maybe everything in this league will be complete. 

I expect more star players will come to this league in the coming seasons and they will develop this league more.

[hyudien]

Actually Alvaro Morata want to stayed at Atletico Madrid but seems if he decided to stayed in this team Simeone will not guarantee Alvaro Morata to gets one place on Atletico Madrid starting line up for next season and after this news appears then some of media has been speculate about his future for next season and actually Alvaro Morata was linked to Juventus or AC Milan but apparently these news is only remain rumour because these clubs have no plan to bid him in the near future

I have actually seen Morata's performance in Spain and it has been very good. Yes, he is the captain and practically the things he does are very good. He has carried the Team on his shoulders, he is in the quarter-finals and now he has to face the biggest of the big teams , Germany, who if they are careless, Spain will run over them with extreme ease. What I like about this Spanish team is that they have a good attack on all sides. For me, Spain's best defence is its Attack , so I see that this can lead to very good things if they continue as they are going , but Whatever the future of Morata , the team that has him will have a great player with good experience.

He has always earned the trust of the Spanish national team and now he has appeared in all the matches that Spain played at the Euros and managed to score 1 goal and managed to help Spain to be in the semifinals. That is a good contribution that Alvaro Morata can make with Spain.
In fact, at Atletico Madrid itself he is still making a good contribution, last season alone he was able to create 15 and 3 assists from the 32 matches he played with Atletico Madrid. With statistics like that, Atletico Madrid should give more consideration to retaining Morata so he can stay with them in the next season.
He has been with Atletico Madrid for 4 seasons and his contract will end in 2026. At least they can still keep him until his contract actually expires and to wait for that, Atletico Madrid can look for younger players to be projected to replace Alvaro Morata's position.

Saudi Pro League is having great growth in few months which is surely amazing with their organizes are doing right job for the development of the game and league into this country which is good as they are spending money surely this is amazing stuff and having Cristiano Ronaldo and Naymer in first season were good job from them even they are having few problems but still things are going good for them, and they are trying to achieve their targets in future as well which is good strategy from them in last few years we are having good improvement in Saudi national team which is also good.

Now as they are preparing for having more big names from the world best clubs this will give them good development but still they need to work on their academy level which is more important and surely having better results for their future of this game in this country and having big names from other regions is also good but still they need to work on hardly in coming years for the long run success.

We need to understand few things about these leagues and their system which are working for decades under UEFA and FIFA with there is no room for any club even from any country other than European region to participate in this league because this is important for the spirit of the game and league as well so this all talk is having no worth about Al Nassr or any Saudi Pro League club is capable of participating into UEFA Champions League right now or in near future.

Few peoples are trying to create feud which is surely just for the media attention nothing more Saudi League is developing very strongly, and we will have them developed much better and stronger in near future which is surely good thing for them and this region which need some good development in soccer for having good competition in big events of soccer.

I don't see any good development of Saudi Pro League behind success become more popular league right now after success signing many top European players. But Saudi Pro League success reach the higher level competition in Asian after many top players arriving and make their competition more excited before have many top players such as Cristiano Ronaldo. The development success or not depend on the Saudi Arabia youth players get aboard for playing with top European team or not.

Most important thing how to make significant development with Saudi Pro League must brave sign top manager for their academy, its necessary if want to see many top youth players get more minutes with senior team and brave aboard to european club get braveness for regular position. If get popular as Saudi Pro League after success signing many top players I don't think they have good development because still less of young Saudi Arabia players play for top teams.

All the football targets that Saudi wants to achieve through the Saudi Pro League require a process, including developing young talents, and I think we are seeing this at the moment. The recruitment of top European players has made the Saudi Pro League famous, but we realize that the Saudi Pro League is not yet very competitive. In the future, with more serious steps taken by several other contestants in the transfer window, the Saudi Pro League will be even more competitive and interesting to participate in. Al Ittihad has taken the intended step, by recruiting one of Europe top managers, namely Stefano Pioli. It is possible that in the future more top European managers will leave for Saudi, the tall salary offer is one of the main attractions.

From several references I have read, it seems that not all clubs competing in the Saudi League have an ideal academy. although there are several clubs that prioritize their academy, even big clubs like Al Nassr.  from several newspapers I read, Al Nassr filled their academy team with young talent. IMO, to develop the young talent of local Saudi players, is not something that is instant. at the very least, they need time and process before competing in the big leagues. yeah, at least the development of young talent is focused on improving the development of football in Saudi. I'm sure the Saudi kingdom's goal is not only to bring in former top European players, but they have a much bigger project than that. Apart from introducing Saudi football from bringing in big names like Ronaldo and so on, they have stated to host the World Cup in their vision and mission. Well, I think they also involve young talent to be further developed. Maybe the results will not be visible in the near future, at least it will take a process and time so that what they initiated can run according to plan. I agree with you on one thing, that currently the Saudi Pro League is much more competitive than other Asian Leagues. yeah, it's natural that many famous players compete in this league. Moreover, currently several coaches who have managed big European clubs are taking part as coaches at one of the Saudi clubs.

Stefano Pioli will be contracted for 3 years and during that time I hope he is the right choice and Al-Ittihad will not have to change coaches again.

Stefano Pioli is an experienced coach, so it is hoped that this will bring fresh air for Al Ittihad to compete in the next season in the Saudi Pro League. they moved quickly after they found out that AC Milan had fired Stefano Pioli and finally they managed to reach an agreement to work together next season. Some of the players already know Pioli and Pioli also certainly knows the playing style of some of the players in the squad, because they have faced each other in Europe, that might help him to work faster.
Al Ittihad still has many shortcomings and they are trying to bring in a new coach in the hope of solving their shortcomings in the game. In his game, Pioli definitely knows how to apply solid defense because Serie A is known for its solid defensive style, maybe he will apply that to his new team to help Al Ittihad achieve something they want.

This is something that I like, Al Ittihad needs a new order, a new way or fresh ideas, I think this coach is the right one, of course, he has to work very well with his players to see results, I like this because in part I see that things in the Arab league are very good and they want to go up no matter what, it is known that the biggest contenders are Al Hilal and Al Nassr, now they want to enter as favorites, so they bet on the coach, which seems great to me, good for Al Ittihad.

Bennacer in negotiations with Al-Ittihad over Pioli reunion – report

Bennacer is said to be in ‘intense’ negotiations with Al-Ittihad over a move during the summer transfer window according to reports from TMW and Thursday’s print edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport.

The 26-year-old, who was briefly on Arsenal’s books as a youngster, has reportedly given his approval to the potential move and his representatives are in discussions with the SPL side.

If the move were to go through, Bennacer would team up with former Liverpool and Chelsea midfielders, Fabinho and N’golo Kante, in midfield, while 2022 Ballon d’Or winner Karim Benzema is also among the squad. One-time Italy international Luiz Felipe is an Al-Ittihad player too, as is former Celtic and Benfica winger, Jota.

We have predicted this phenomenon before, the Saudi Pro League will continue to be discussed until 2030 or when they have gone through their planned Vision and Mission and it's no longer a secret. Saudi still has up to 6 years to make a surprise through sports and they have prepared the budget or we usually call it unlimited funds, Now the Saudi Pro League has passed 2 seasons since Ronaldo was first brought in and next is season 3 but so far we haven't heard any shocking news, could it be that they are waiting until the Euro Cup 2024  ends? Previously, we heard rumors that great players would join the Saudi Pro League this season one of those linked is Moh Salah, this player is 32 years old and his contract will end next season this means that if Liverpool don't let him go in this transfer window then next season he will leave for free.

Before Cristiano Ronaldo arrived the Saudi Pro League, very little was said about the league in other countries of the but after it was confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo has been signed by Al Nassr, the league gained significant global recognition. After the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo in the Middle East country, we've seen several former European based superstar footballers join the league including Brazilian Neymar Jr, former Balon D'or winner Karim Benzema, former English Premier League best player of the season, Ngolo Kante and others. For now, the league have achieved their aim of making it one of the most talked about league in the world.
Now, the other problem of the league management s to make the indigenous young talents become very developed so they can be strong enough to face teams from other parts if the world. It's gradual process that I think they'll definitely succeed in no distant time.

I'm noticing a trend in the Saudi pro league, and that is in them trying so hard to replicate the European league or possibly do more than the European league so they can get almost same attention the European leagues do get. Last season most of the Saudi sides were looking to buy players fr across Europe a d even in this new summer transfer window, they are sticking around with their bids to get a chance to sign as much as they can to strengthen their leagues too.

Soon the Saudi pro league will get the desired and they crave because of the quality of players a d coach they are beginning to get do to the transfer and signing they have been doing in recent times, it's been an interesting league do and quiet interesting at their current levels but it's still not enough to be compared to the leagues in Europe.

Yes, I understand that UEFA is a European regional tournament. The Saudi League probably won't get a place there because the Saudi League is not included in the European region, but most people want the Saudi League to participate in that tournament even though that is quite impossible. This might just be a rumor even though many people miss Ronaldo playing in that tournament but Ronaldo's time in the European league is over now Ronaldo is in a different league and everyone has to accept that Ronaldo will not return to play there.

UEFA already has its own rules, but this could be an encouragement for the Saudi League to continue to develop their league and create big tournaments also with fierce competition, they already have the AFC Champions League tournament which they created to be equivalent to the UEFA Champions League, although in fact it is still far from equal.

As mentioned many times before this as well Saudi League is having few huge advantages like they are having fully control of Saudi Government which is working on their way for having change of culture and all things around which were going for centuries and MBS is keen to bring some big culture changes as well which are possible through sports so currently they are working on this their first target was soccer so they are achieving their targets through Saudi League, and they are already having good changes as well with world cup 2034 is going to player here, and they are now having target of bringing this league at the top tier of world leagues even this is not easy but possible for them.

As they are having too many players and coaches here which are working hard for the improvement of quality and performance which will surely bring good competitive matches and good intention of soccer fans around the world with the sources they are already had good results and things will be more admirable for them in coming years.

All the football targets that Saudi wants to achieve through the Saudi Pro League require a process, including developing young talents, and I think we are seeing this at the moment. The recruitment of top European players has made the Saudi Pro League famous, but we realize that the Saudi Pro League is not yet very competitive. In the future, with more serious steps taken by several other contestants in the transfer window, the Saudi Pro League will be even more competitive and interesting to participate in. Al Ittihad has taken the intended step, by recruiting one of Europe top managers, namely Stefano Pioli. It is possible that in the future more top European managers will leave for Saudi, the tall salary offer is one of the main attractions.

Improving the league is one of the steps that must be taken by the Saudi Arabian league authorities in order to make them develop at the international level, So far we have seen that the arrival of star players to the Arab league is only an effort to make the Arab league more competitive like the European league, But I think what the Saudi Arabian football authorities are currently doing has a bigger mission and goal than just seeing the Arab league get better, the Saudi Arabian football authorities have big ambitions in the future to form a national team that can be on par with other countries in Europe both in terms of quality, physicality, stamina and mentality, so to make this happen, of course, tight competition is needed in the league in order to make the mentality of local players improve rapidly in the future because they are used to competing with current European players.

In my opinion, competitive competition in the Arab league will directly affect the performance of their local players so that Saudi Arabia will have a national team that is strong and ready to compete in the world cup in the future, the arrival of many top coaches and players will of course increase competition in the league it's getting tighter, and I think this is actually in line with what the Arab League authorities have wanted all along, and that's why the Arab League authorities have given Saudi Arabian teams a lot of freedom to recruit lots of players and coaches European.

We have predicted this phenomenon before, the Saudi Pro League will continue to be discussed until 2030 or when they have gone through their planned Vision and Mission and it's no longer a secret. Saudi still has up to 6 years to make a surprise through sports and they have prepared the budget or we usually call it unlimited funds, Now the Saudi Pro League has passed 2 seasons since Ronaldo was first brought in and next is season 3 but so far we haven't heard any shocking news, could it be that they are waiting until the Euro Cup 2024  ends? Previously, we heard rumors that great players would join the Saudi Pro League this season one of those linked is Moh Salah, this player is 32 years old and his contract will end next season this means that if Liverpool don't let him go in this transfer window then next season he will leave for free.

Saudi Pro League organizers are having enough experience and sources for doing things which they want to do for having good intention from the soccer fans around the world with they started their business after having Ronaldo, Neymar and Karim Benzema in first phase which give them huge success, and then we have things well organized for them which helps them for having more things which are achievable for them even they are having few troubles due to culture difference and also having strict laws about few things which are possible in Europe and other parts of the world but still they are doing their all work for having all their targets achieved until 2034.

Now in this season we are having few big names are joining them with Mohammad Salah is going to have his spot in 2025 and few more players are also ready for having their share here and many big names in coaching staff are also coming and trying to use their experience for having things well organized for the Saudi League success.
