When Salah leaves Liverpool he can choose European teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona. If SPL is going to buy Salah which team will play him. Cristiano, Felix, Mane and Salah for Al Nassr in 2026?

Benzema is indeed an experienced player and his performance has been excellent so far. I think at 38, he's not too old. What matters most isn't age but ability. There are quite a few young footballers whose performance sometimes declines. For example, Ronaldo, even though he's over 40, possesses excellent skills, even many ordinary young players are inferior to him.

Karim Benzema is a very great player and he is continously proving his talent and potential. And I think there are just few players who are proving that age is just a number for them and karim Benzema is one of them. He is not too young or neither too old but his performance is too good. I think these players who are doing their best with having age limits are paying their attention towards their fitness. And Benzema have also good records he serves the team to help them in chasing the titles they won. Cristiano Ronaldo is also a player who is young energetic and serving great to the team despite having the crossing limit of age. And there are number of players who joined Saudi Pro league after the joining of Cristiano Ronaldo. And these players are really having their great time in the Saudi Pro league.

Next week,, Al Hilal will face Al Taawon. I don't think this match will be easy for Al Hilal. Although Al Taawon's performance has declined significantly,, they are still a formidable team in the Saudi Arabian League. Therefore,, I believe Al Hilal will likely struggle to win this match. Al Taawon is also determined to climb back up the standings, so Al Taawon certainly won't give up three points easily.

Therefore,, I personally find it a bit difficult to choose which team to bet on in this match. A draw is the most likely outcome. However,, Al Hilal certainly won't be willing to lose any points in this match. So,, with that in mind, I'm even more confused. In terms of player quality, Al Hilal is clearly superior. However,, Al Hilal's current performance is clearly not as good as it used to be. So that's why I'm confused, so what do you all think about this match.

The most recent head-to-head match between these two teams ended in a draw when the final whistle blew in the tenth round of the Saudi Professional League. At that time Al Hilal was performing quite convincingly around that round while Al Taawon’s performance was very poor. However Al Taawon was still able to hold Al Hilal to a draw at their own home ground at Al Taawon Arena. But this time the match between the two teams will be different as the upcoming match will take place at Al Hilal’s home ground at the Kingdom Arena. This will put pressure on Al Taawon potentially making it difficult for them to defeat Al Hilal due to the different atmosphere. So I personally believe that Al Hilal will easily win this match. And I’m not sure Al Taawon can keep up in this match given their poor recent form, where they’ve struggled to win in their last five matches. Al Hilal also faces stiff competition from Al Nassr and even Al Ahli in the standings. And that makes me confident that Al Hilal won’t waste their chance to secure a full three points in the upcoming match against Al Taawon.

Saudi Professional League actually had good strategies for development of the league and they chose a right super star player for initiating their project with Cristiano Ronaldo. Imagine that if they chose Neymar as a first super star player to buy, perhaps the league development would be very different and worse.

Benzema joined Saudi Professional League after C. Ronaldo but generally they both contributed great things for their clubs and the league and they are successful transfers for Saudi Professional League so far.

Yes,, if we're talking about popularity and money, the Saudi Arabian League has clearly been quite successful in developing its football league on the international stage. I personally wasn't familiar with the Saudi Arabian League, but after Ronaldo arrived, I've become very familiar with it. However, when it comes to the development of football academies there, I don't think things are particularly good at the moment. Currently,, Saudi Arabian League teams, especially those funded by public funds, rely heavily on European players.

As a result,, local players are currently underutilized. All eyes are on the newly arrived stars. I believe this is a downside to the Saudi Arabian League's project. What's the point of making the Saudi Arabian League famous if it's putting local players at a disadvantage?? I think it would be better if the Saudi Arabiann League also developed and provided more opportunities for local players. So that players from there can reach the international stage too.

If Ronaldo and Neymar had not gone to the Saudi Arabian League, I might never have known about the Saudi Arabian League. I still don't watch many matches of the Saudi Arabian League, only a few. Their goal was to make the Saudi Arabian League very popular because of their immense money and they succeeded in this goal. Now they need to focus on their own domestic players. The Saudi Arabian League has become very popular on the world stage and if they want to maintain this popularity, they need to improve their domestic players and improve themselves instead of being dependent on others.

That's how you know a quality player, irrespective of where they go or play in they would always show that same quality and value, just like Lionel Messi at inter Miami, since he got there all he has done is to elevate the status of the MLS as well as the status of the club thereby attracting more fans to the games in a country where soccer isn't as valuable as basketball yet you can see hundreds of thousands of people trooping to the stadium to watch inter Miami play all because of what Messi is doing, so with Kareem Benzema in the Saudi league, I couldn't expect anything less than pure class as well.

If there is one thing that is not playing in his favor, it is time. Ronaldo is not getting any younger and he won't get any better from here on. He can try to maintain his shape and play more intelligently rather than force.

As you say, Ronaldo was mad about transfer policy issues because he argues that other clubs spend more. I think Ronaldo knew from the beginning which league he is going to join and how that league is run politically because that is what it is, politics.

See the top scorers of the other teams, they are no names and what is Ronaldo complaining about? He has Felix, he has Mane, he has Coman.

Ronaldo was right in case of Benzema's transfer. And first of all, it is not the clubs themselves who spend big on players in the Saudi Professional League. The Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) owns 75% of the top 4 clubs, and they are the ones who decide how much money a particular club can spend. Ronaldo's complaint was that Al Nassr is not permitted to spend as much as their rivals (Al Hilal). And secondly, although he has Sadio Mané in his team the fortunes for Al Nassr improved only after João Félix joined the team. Mané has been out of form for quite some time now.

Ronaldo can complain as much as he wants to. He has no right whatsoever to discuss transfer policies of his club. I hope you read my post correctly because I said it is about politics and I brought that up because of the PIF in the background. Neither does Ronaldo know nor do we know what is going on behind the scenes, who is favored by the government, who is friends with whom, or what are the terms those clubs agreed upon before the season began. Ronaldo will have his ego problem forever, he thinks he is a king or something, but in Saudi Arabia he is a joke. He is there to play and entertain.

In the goalscorer list he behind no names that I have never heard of before. But Ronaldo is not good enough to lead that statistic. He may be angry about it, but that's how it is.

[programmer3666]

Eight games is a lot when you are talking about a single game difference, obviously it would not be easy to accept it as it is and we should not be considering this as something that would not be easy to accept, it is a bigger difference than that for sure.

We should realize that if Al Nassr wants to win a title finally, which they have been trying and failing since Ronaldo joined, then they have to end up getting wins all the way until Al Hilal loses points somewhere, and thas not an easy task.

I think one way or another Al-Nassr will lift the trophy this season. They have been pushing for it for a while now and I feel like they really deserve it at this point. Al-Hilal might be trailing them bumper to bumper, but I believe they will drop points along the way. If Al-Nassr can stay consistent and keep winning, they still have a real chance to give them some comfortable gap. Football can be unpredictable and all it takes is a few bad results to change everything

Just like you, my interest in the Saudi Pro League began when Cristiano Ronaldo decided to move there, before that, i’d only heard about it and seen bits and pieces without really following it. But your curiosity naturally grows when your favourite player is there. We know Ronaldo is incredibly popular, one of the most influential figures in the world of sport and the media follow him everywhere. He has even brought that popularity to the Saudi League, and today more and more people are interested in watching and following its progress.

Same here. I am here only for Ronaldo. Perhaps this is the thread in Bitcointalk where I have posted the most. And all because of Ronaldo. Before 2023, I might have heard about Saudi Professional League, but I am sure that I never watched any of the matches or even followed the news from the league. But that changed as soon as Ronaldo joined Al Nassr. I am residing in India, and sometimes the timings are not suitable for Indian viewers. Even then, I have watched a few matches after midnight. And the interest will be lost in case Ronaldo leaves this league.

When Salah leaves Liverpool he can choose European teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona. If SPL is going to buy Salah which team will play him. Cristiano, Felix, Mane and Salah for Al Nassr in 2026?

Salah is currently 33 years old,, and I think that's quite old. Therefore, I'm sure European teams likely won't be interested in this striker. Even though Salah is a very good footballer, European teams certainly won't be too interested because they always have long-term plans. Therefore,, at Salah's current age, the chances of him playing for a big European team are very slim.

However,, this doesn't rule out the possibility of Salah playing for a big team, but in my opinion, the chances are quite small. So, with that in mind, I think playing for a Saudi Arabian league team is clearly a good option for Salah. Besides being paid a lot of money, he will also get a lot of playing time. So,, with that in mind, I think it makes more sense for Salah to play in the Saudi Arabian league than in Europe. So, we'll see where Salah goes after Liverpool.

Actually the expectations are, that in all case, Al Nassr eventually gets to win the title. But they are closely followed by Al Hilal with just 3 points gap, one that can be closed with the loosing of one game, somehow I think the chances for Al Nassr is very slim and threatened, they will need a consistency that will be uninterrupted till the end of the season to be very sure they are going to win this trophy this season. Al Hilal is a very solid side in the Saudi league that cannot be underestimated, so Al Nassr should focus on them getting the wins till the end of the season and they will be at better advantage.

Cristiano Ronaldo has taken a position of main goal scorer in most of clubs he has played in his career and he scored most goals in his career in seasons for Real Madrid. These years are when Cristiano Ronaldo playing with and was supported by Karim Benzema who actually sacrificed a lot of things like playing more likely a forward to give a scoring task to Ronaldo.

We already witnessed how good and goal productive Karim Benzema can perform in seasons for Real Madrid after Ronaldo left the club. I see Karim Benzema is good too and he belongs to one of best strikers in history but GOAT is a thing only used to compare Messi and Ronaldo so it makes sense that Karim Benzema is not in this comparison.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a player who has been declared as the most goal scorer and an experienced player in almost all the leagues or clubs in which he played. And he is also very close to set the new record for all the new comers in thus football by scoring 1000 goals in football. Perhaps this is a very difficult task or it take too long for any to break it or set a new one. There are many other quality players who are serving greatly in their respective teams but I think there us no one which we can condiderd a good comparison with Cristiano Ronaldo. There is Leon Messi who is also a very good player and in the same circle of Ronaldo. Karim Benzema is also a very talented player and served his team various team to win but after a lot of great achievements he is still has no comparison with the Ronaldo.

Next week,, Al Hilal will face Al Taawon. I don't think this match will be easy for Al Hilal. Although Al Taawon's performance has declined significantly,, they are still a formidable team in the Saudi Arabian League. Therefore,, I believe Al Hilal will likely struggle to win this match. Al Taawon is also determined to climb back up the standings, so Al Taawon certainly won't give up three points easily.

Therefore,, I personally find it a bit difficult to choose which team to bet on in this match. A draw is the most likely outcome. However,, Al Hilal certainly won't be willing to lose any points in this match. So,, with that in mind, I'm even more confused. In terms of player quality, Al Hilal is clearly superior. However,, Al Hilal's current performance is clearly not as good as it used to be. So that's why I'm confused, so what do you all think about this match.

Although Al Hilal is ranked 2nd and Al Taawon is ranked 5th, Al Taawon is a team that cannot be underestimated by Al Hilal because in their last match the result was 1-1 so it is certain that the match is not easy to predict the result even though of course there is a big chance for Al Hilal to win. But to predict the match I will favor Al Hilal to win because I think Inzaghi will definitely make a good strategy and will learn from previous experiences so I think Al Hilal will win and I predict 3-1 for Al Hilal's victory. But the unique thing is that Al Nassr definitely hopes that Al Hilal will lose in that match so that Al Nassr can sit comfortably at the top of the standings. But it seems that in the Al Hilal vs Al Taawon match I will not spend a lot of money because the risk is very high. In my opinion, if you are in doubt, it is better to just bet.

Saudi Pro League is on and we will see match of Al Hilal Saudi Club against Al-Taawoun  football team and that will be one sided game because Al Hilal Saudi Club is very strong team and players always try to play well in every match either they played against big team or low team . They are experienced team and have good status because they worked on their team and their players have friendly environment and that is reason they are not in loss and they are favourite to win every match. Al Hilal Saudi Club has top rank on the table because their points are more than opponent team. Al-Taawoun  team has less points on the table because they could not win more matches against different teams and they have 5th position on the table.

I would disagree with this assumption. Al Taawoun is a strong team, although they are not directly owned by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF). If you check the points table, it will be clear for you. Al Taawoun is at 5th position, above PIF-owned clubs such as Al Ittihad. On the other hand, Al Hilal is yet to regain the top position despite the fact that now they have Benzema in their squad. Roger Martínez from Al Taawoun has so far scored 20 goals in this season. Also, I would say that they have a well balanced side, with players such as Angelo Fulgini, Musa Barrow and Marin Petkov in the squad.

Who told you Mohammed Salah is fade out? Give him the ball in the opponents box and he will show you that he still have that spark in him. Although the Egyptian have been inconsistent this season but it's not enough reasons to cancel out his prime days at Liverpool, he won major trophies with Liverpool under Jurgen Klopp. Common Mohammed Salah have played good football and this is time for him to rest and play good football because his balling days are absolutely going to come to end.

Do you know that Mohammed Salah use to be that speedster that became a threat to opposing sides. He has pace and developed extreme good qualities as a player. Liverpool will miss him because his next move will be to join an SPL club at the end of the season.

Mohamed Salah gradually has more issues with his ageing but at his age, he is still at world class level but with many changes in Liverpool since the summer from player resource, tactics and system operation as well as less belief and support for Mohamed Salah, he has no longer played with full comfort and it results in worse performances from him. He is partially responsible for his worse performances but general conditions in Liverpool actually affected Salah from his psychology to performance.

Finally Mohamed Salah and Liverpool already agreed with each other to end their relationship but he will be remembered by Liverpool fans and the club history as one of their best players throughout their club's long and successful history.

Yes,, Al Taawon is clearly not to be underestimated at this point. It's important to remember that in the past few months,, Al Taawon has been a very troublesome team for its opponents. As evidence, Al Taawon was once in second place in the Saudi Arabian League standings and also managed to outperform Al Hilal at that time. Therefore, in this match, we cannot conclude that Al Hilal will easily defeat Al Taawon. The point is,, Al Taawon also clearly has players who are no less great, and they are certainly ready to face Al Hilal this week.

So,, with that in mind, I'm sure this match will be very tight and perhaps a little difficult to predict. So, with that in mind, I think this match will be very exciting, because this is a match that I believe brings together teams of equal strength. Because while it's true that Al Hilal currently looks stronger,, I'm sure Al Hilal will have a bit of a hard time facing Al Taawon on the field.

Al Hilal also faces stiff competition from Al Nassr and even Al Ahli in the standings. And that makes me confident that Al Hilal won’t waste their chance to secure a full three points in the upcoming match against Al Taawon.

Yes I agree with you completely. Al Taawoun's performance is currently in a very fragile position. Their last few matches have been very bad. They have only managed to win one match out of 5 matches, lost one match and drawn the remaining three matches. The match between Al Taawoun and Al Hilal will be at Al Hilal's home ground. In this regard, Al Hilal is far ahead and currently Al Hilal has performed very well, they are in a very consistent position. This match may be won by Al Hilal with a very large margin. I will bet on Al Hilal without any doubt.

When Salah leaves Liverpool he can choose European teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona. If SPL is going to buy Salah which team will play him. Cristiano, Felix, Mane and Salah for Al Nassr in 2026?

From what I’ve read in several local news reports, the two teams that seem poised to compete fiercely for Mohamed Salah’s services are Al-Ittihad and Al-Qadisiyah. in fact, it’s reported that Al-Ittihad has actually been interested in signing Salah for several seasons now, but he has consistently chosen to stay at Liverpool. Now that M. Salah is reportedly set to leave Liverpool at the end of this season. Al-Ittihad seems to have the best chance of signing him. in fact, Al-Ittihad is said to be preparing a truly fantastic offer.

however, I am certain the competition is not limited to just Al-Ittihad and Al-qadisiyah, as other teams from the SPL will certainly try to sign this player. In fact, Al-nassr and Al-ahli may also be targeting M. Salah.

[Iamgoat]

I think one way or another Al-Nassr will lift the trophy this season. They have been pushing for it for a while now and I feel like they really deserve it at this point. Al-Hilal might be trailing them bumper to bumper, but I believe they will drop points along the way. If Al-Nassr can stay consistent and keep winning, they still have a real chance to give them some comfortable gap. Football can be unpredictable and all it takes is a few bad results to change everything

I like Ronaldo for so many reasons and when it comes to individual players, I will say is my most favorite player and the one I don't get tired of watching his football because of how passionate and confident he is about his abilities but often playing like the father of the house, meaning he is always excited to push his teammates to win whenever he got the chsnces. This character is a show of humility at its peak but it also makes you a great and revolutionary player. So for the sake of Ronaldo, who has also been consistently fighting for a chance for Al Nassr to take this title, I'm very much in support of the team winning and very confident in their capabilities to win.
