Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Akbarkoe]

There are few players in the world who would turn down such a high price. Cristiano Ronaldo was going through a rough patch before moving to Saudi Arabia. He couldn't find a team in Europe that wanted him. He had a difficult time at Manchester United and was determined to leave. Saudi Arabia used its biggest weapon in making this offer, offering him a very high salary. Ronaldo is currently happy there and wants to score his 1,000th goal there. He's just a stone's throw away. He's one of the best players football has ever seen, and that's the way it will remain.

It would be an anomaly if no European team wanted CR7. Before joining Al Nassr, CR7 stated that several European teams had contacted him to join, but he flatly rejected the offers and chose to move to Al Nassr, citing the desire to gain new experience playing in the Asian league. However, the main reason was undoubtedly the substantial salary. And I think this is a fairly wise decision to secure a better retirement, to accumulate more money for a pension fund.

There’s no denying that despite his age, CR7 still has an extraordinary appeal; he remains the center of attention for most football fans. To retain CR7 does require a significant amount of money, but it’s worth it for the club, as its popularity increases, and so do the investors, with many currently investing in the Saudi Pro League.

Al Ahli has once again added to their trophy collection by defeating Al Nassr. They continue their positive trend, indicating their performance remains very stable. At first glance, Al Ahli often displays different performances in other competitions, their strengths are difficult to predict, and in my opinion, this shows that their investment in developing squad depth seems to be paying off. This season, Al Ahli will likely be a serious contender in the Saudi Pro League, while also attempting to defend their AFC Champions League trophy.

This marks Al-Ahli's second Saudi Super Cup win, the first coming in 2016/17. They also won the AFC Champions League in 2024/2025 the previous year. The league season will begin shortly.

Al-Ahli are constantly striving to improve their performance and become even stronger. This season, they have only spent around €38.80 million on signings so far.

Having good players doesn't classify you will be winning on every game they may have still loss if sadio mane was present we should expect any thing in soccer game both club played well penalty shotout doesn't determine if your club can be better or not i believe penalty shotout is something of luck in football one side must surely win and Ronaldo club wasn't in the lucky part to win, C Ronaldo is a determine baller he always put on his best to make sure his club always come out with good results the lucky side won congratulations to Al-Ahly.

I think the situation will be different if Mane could play in the match. I even assume there will be no penalty shootout, Al Nassr probably won the match in the normal time. However, the match has been over already, it is not necessary to talk about this anymore. 

Ronaldo actually has done good job. He scored 1 goal in the normal time, he scored in the penalty shootout as well. He was just unlucky because one of Al Nassr player failed to score goal in the penalty shootout. But it is no problem, there is still a chance to win another trophy. I think the main target is winning Saudi League trophy.

Yes, at that time, it wasn't just Al Nasr who wanted Ronaldo, but many big European teams also wanted to bring him in. But according to rumors circulating at the time, the offers given by European teams didn't match Ronaldo's wishes. So when there was an offer from Al Nasr with a very large nominal, Ronaldo did not hesitate to accept it. Then now I also feel that Ronaldo is very happy to be at Al Nasr, because there he is appreciated and also given adequate facilities. So with this, it is clear that the choice chosen by Ronaldo was absolutely very right. Because when he left Manchester United to join one of the European teams, I'm sure he wouldn't have received the facilities he has now.

So with this, I think Ronaldo really made the right decision. Even though at that time many people really underestimated the Saudi Arabian League, but Ronaldo didn't think about other people's opinions about the Saudi League, because he probably already knew that if he joined the Saudi Arabian League, he would still be a star and the most expensive player. And now it's proven, that Ronaldo is still famous and he earns a truly enormous salary. Perhaps as far as I know, the only football player over 40 who has the highest salary is Ronaldo and there are no others besides Ronaldo. So that is truly a very cool achievement.

And it's true, Ronaldo's presence has made the Saudi Arabian League incredibly popular today. So, there's no denying that Ronaldo is truly the best football player of all time.

It's actually not surprising to see Al-Ahli win the final. It's not that I think Al-Ahli are stronger than Al-Nassr, but I think we've noticed since last season that Al-Ahli were like a different team when they reached the final and played in the final.

We remember in the AFC Asian Cup last season, Al-Ahli even beat Al-Hilal in the semifinals. And then in the final, we saw Al-Ahli beat Kawasaki Frontale. Their mentality always seems to be better in competitions other than the SPL itself. In the SPL, we often see Al-Ahli being inconsistent. But in other competitions, Al-Ahli really can't be underestimated. Their strength is difficult to overcome. I'm sad that Al-Nassr failed again. But I think both teams fought well.

Al Ahli has once again added to their trophy collection by defeating Al Nassr. They continue their positive trend, indicating their performance remains very stable. At first glance, Al Ahli often displays different performances in other competitions, their strengths are difficult to predict, and in my opinion, this shows that their investment in developing squad depth seems to be paying off. This season, Al Ahli will likely be a serious contender in the Saudi Pro League, while also attempting to defend their AFC Champions League trophy.

On the other hand, Al Nassr has still failed, and that is certainly very disappointing. Many people expected Al Nassr to succeed after overhauling their squad and appointing a new manager this season. I think Jorge Jesus will have to work twice as hard to lead Al Nassr to future trophies. I think Jorge Jesus still needs to recruit new players in the defense sector, so that they don't concede goals easily and will increase their chances of winning every match.

It seems Al Nassr needs to bring in new players to strengthen their defense. Considering the attacks from strong teams like Al Ahli and others, Al Nassr certainly needs a lot of strong defenders. While Al Nassr's current defense might be sufficient against average teams, it will certainly be difficult to face strong teams.

You're absolutely right. Al Ahli always does things differently, especially in non-SPL matches. Now, Al Ahli will certainly try to defend their ACL trophy because they certainly want to please their fans again next season. I share your opinion, as I believe Al Ahli has the potential to be a serious competitor for strong teams like Ittihad, Al Qadisiyah, and Al Nassr. However, the upcoming SPL matches will certainly be more exciting, and I'm curious about when Al Nassr will face Al Ahli. Yes, many Al Nassr fans are certainly disappointed with Al Nassr right now because they were hoping for a better performance with the new formation. However, I have a feeling that Al Nassr has the potential to compete and perform better.

Liverpool paid £64M to buy Nunez but they sold him for to Al Hilal for £46M. Liverpool lost money on his transfer fee. Nunez is a good striker he can score goals in the SPL. Al Nassr beat them in the Super Cup semi but Al Hilal will be a strong team for the SPL season.

I think Al Ahli is truly an extraordinary example. Even though they haven't brought in many expensive players, they've managed to win two prestigious trophies. Compare that to Al Nasr, which boasts expensive players and appears to be very impressive at first glance. But in reality, Al Nasr hasn't been able to achieve satisfactory results. So, Al Nasr must learn not to just prioritize highly popular players, but also to bring in quality players who can enhance the team.

Al Nasr currently has an overabundance of forwards. Essentially, Al Nasr only needs defenders who will improve their defense. But strangely, Al Nasr remains oblivious to this. I really don't understand Al Nasr. Meanwhile, Al Ahli has been actively selling players they no longer need in the squad this transfer window. Just like Allan Saint-Maximin and Firminho, who were sold by Al Ahli in this transfer window. Because both players were no longer performing optimally at Al Ahli, it's understandable that they were ultimately sold. Al Nasr should also have the courage to take a similar step. So, don't keep players who are no longer a good fit for the team.

Wow...what was Liverpool thinking to sell Nunez in a loss. Where they that eager to sell him off the club. This is the first time I have seen that a club didn't benefit heavily from the generosity of the Arab men. Al Nassr has been a rival to Al Hilal but Al Hilal is more superior than them. Of course, the Saudi Pro League belongs to Al Hilal this season and no one can stop them from achieving the title.

Anyone still doubting Ronaldo’s abilities is delusional and not a real football lover. Ronaldo has proved everything and ticked every box to be the GOAT! Recently he completed 100 goals at Al Nassr, creating a record of scoring at least a 100 goals for every club in his professional career he has played for and Portugal as well. It is in no doubt that moving to Saudi Arabia was the best decision he made.

Nunez wasn't good enough at Liverpool, because I think selling him for that amount is a success. Darwin Nunez was a striker who truly harmed Liverpool. Liverpool didn't buy strikers just because he was there. However, he couldn't contribute to the team's goalscoring potential. In my opinion, he did the right thing by going to Saudi Arabia, because no major European team would pay that much for him.

And it's true, Ronaldo's presence has made the Saudi Arabian League incredibly popular today. So, there's no denying that Ronaldo is truly the best football player of all time.

Yes, when he moved to the Saudi Arabian League, people thought this would be a setback in the Portuguese star's career and that he would no longer be in the public spotlight. However, this assumption turned out to be completely wrong. He proved his greatness, and in the end, people and the media followed him wherever he went. He proved that his name is bigger than the club he represents and the league he currently plays in. It may seem excessive, but that's the reality. Even I know about Al Nassr and the Saudi Pro League because of the presence of the megastar there, and many people discuss this topic, one of the reasons being the presence of the megastar.

And back to Al Nassr, it’s a shame that they ultimately failed to win the Saudi Super Cup trophy. But never mind, let’s forget about it, and now the team must focus on the upcoming matches in the Saudi Pro League.

[Fuso.hp]

I don't know for sure but I think Ronaldo is still without a major success in the Saudi Professional League, isn't he? I am not talking about his individual trophies as best goal scorer, but did he win any important titles there so far? I remember when I thought that Al Nassr must be the Saudi super power club when they bought all these players, but it looks as if the league is more equal among the teams than I thought at first. He probably isn't too happy about Al Nassr's overall performance, but his salary probably dries the tears.

Not having to win  the major trophy is not just enough reason to think that Ronaldo has not been successful in the Saudi league, I know success is often measured by the trophy a player has gotten over time but then again there are times when a players effort becomes clear that they have been their best but may just not be lucky but Ronaldo has achieved over a 100 career goal at the Saudi league so far so he is doing well although I wished for him to win this title but anyways congratulations to the winners already.

Our expectations from Al Nasr were actually very high and Al Nasr seemed to be the favorite against Al Ahli but Al Nasr could not prove themselves in their performance on the field due to which they were deprived of winning this big trophy. However, Cristiano Ronaldo cannot be blamed for Al Nasr not winning the big trophy. Since Ronaldo has been in the Saudi League for a long time, we have seen that even if Cristiano Ronaldo performs well, the team still loses, Ronaldo is still blamed for that defeat. It cannot be said that Ronaldo performed poorly in the final match, rather Ronaldo definitely played his best. Maybe if the team performance was a little better, Al Nasr could have won this big trophy. Hopefully, Al Nasr players will not be disappointed but will start the new season with the expectation that they will perform much better in the coming season.

[Sandra_hakeem]

Ivan Toney's message is really clear to the league but he should also understand that we are all equal, if he prefers not to stay in the Saudi league, he should return to Europe where clubs spend a lot of money to improve their teams growth. He is currently earning in millions and still asking for more, what kind of a greedy person is he?.

Furthermore, the match between Al Ahli and Al Nassr is a match I expected Al nassr to win and fortunately, they did.  They're hoping to win a trophy this season with the introduction of a young striker. Having top players like Ronaldo and Mane in the team for the past 2.5 years has really helped the growth, and now this is their third full season with the club. let's hope for the best for  Al Nassr this season because Ronaldo ought to win their domestic title this season.

[Jatiluhung]

This marks Al-Ahli's second Saudi Super Cup win, the first coming in 2016/17. They also won the AFC Champions League in 2024/2025 the previous year. The league season will begin shortly.

Al-Ahli are constantly striving to improve their performance and become even stronger. This season, they have only spent around €38.80 million on signings so far.

It seems like Al-Ahli is a team that's adept at winning awards. In the Saudi Pro League, they haven't been as prominent as Al-Ittihad, Al-Nassr, or Al-Hilal. But in other competitions, Al-Ahli has consistently been the most reliable team, garnering more attention for reaching the final and even winning it. But the season hasn't even started yet. It's possible that this time, Al-Ittihad and Al-Hilal won't be the strong contenders for the title. It could be Al-Ahli who will now have their turn to compete for the title. But I see many people here hoping for Al-Nassr to win the trophy this season in the Saudi Pro League. I understand why, as it's all about Cristiano Ronaldo. And I think I can hope for the same.

Al-Nassr has also signed good players, and I believe they can achieve this with Cristiano Ronaldo this year. I believe this year is the year for Cristiano Ronaldo to win the championship in the Saudi Arabian Pro League. They lost the last cup final in dramatic fashion on penalties. I hope this is the last of his misfortunes. In this long league marathon, I hope Cristiano Ronaldo will be the captain and lift the championship trophy at the end of the year.

It's strange to see Al Hilal recruit a European player for such a high price. They usually offer high prices to sign players, but it seems Liverpool wanted to close the deal quickly, so they didn't ask for much from Al Hilal.
But I don't think it's a huge loss, at least it's better than Nunez leaving on a free transfer, as not many European clubs were interested in signing him. He wouldn't mind going to Saudi Arabia anyway, perhaps because he wanted to try a new environment.

If Al-Nassr manages to win the title this season, it would truly be the most beautiful gift for Cristiano Ronaldo, who I believe may not be playing football for much longer. At over 40, most players retire before or not far from this age. And I think Cristiano Ronaldo might be the same way. Moreover, if he reaches his 1,000-goal target quickly, his retirement will almost certainly be closer. Perhaps another season or two is the maximum. We don't know.

But it seems like Al-Nassr must win this season. And yes, the new players brought in also seem very reliable. Felix has adapted quickly. And even Cristiano Ronaldo seems to like this young player. We remember the assist Cristiano Ronaldo gave Felix in the previous match. That was a truly beautiful moment, in my opinion.

It is in no doubt that moving to Saudi Arabia was the best decision he made.

Haters will be the ones who doubt Ronaldo's abilities and still say he did not win any trophy in Al Nassr. I don't know why some people still think that Ronaldo did not win any trophy at Al Nassr. In 2023, Ronaldo won the Arabia Cup Championship with Al Nassr. Just because he did not win the league trophy doesn't mean that he doesn't have a trophy with them. Ronaldo will remain the GOAT of football by breaking records. Ronaldo is the only player to have scored 100 goals for four different clubs; he always delivers on the pitch wherever he plays, which is why I always admire him.

Al Nassr players are not serious and that is what will affect them to win a trophy every season; they don't have a winning mentality; Al Nassr will be leading with two goals and before the end of the match, they will concede goals that will cause them to lose the match; Al Nassr need to wise up and start doing like Al Hilal; Al Hilal prefers players from Europe over those from Saudi Arabia; if Al Nassr wants to win a trophy, they have to sign players whho have winning mentality.

Of course, because I'm sure all Cristiano Ronaldo fans will be very happy about this. Even anyone who has seen the legend play at his age and still play so well will surely be happy, because Cristiano Ronaldo truly deserves it.

And you know, Cristiano Ronaldo is a player who always manages to lift the team's mentality and that of his teammates. And what Cristiano Ronaldo did when he provided the assist to Joao Felix also seemed to boost Felix's confidence. Because, from that position, Cristiano Ronaldo could have scored the goal himself, but he didn't, instead passing it to Felix. I also like how he did that.

Not really, Liverpool did not loose actually, consider his age now and when he was bought, his performance and what he has helped the team achieved, then look further if he had stayed in Liverpool some more, probably the next two years, how much would he have been able  to contribute to the team and will he still be as optimal? In a competitive environment like the premier league and champions league, Considering his age by then, put all of this together and you will see Liverpool made a timely move on this.
