Saudi Pro League transfers: Which top players play at which clubs?

Saudi Arabia has plans to sign the top talent in soccer. Here is a list of all the big-name players now plying their trade in the Saudi Pro League.

The completed and discussed transfers to the Saudi Pro League.
Mbappe has apparently been offered 400 million Euros a year for 3 years

 

[Insidious Von]

You mean the Saudi Boiler League. Only $360 million for Mbappe, that's cheap, he should get $700 million a year. It doesn't matter, with the pace of global warming the archaic desert kingdom will become uninhabitable.

On too brighter news, Real Madrid and Ac Milan put on a show at the sold out Rose Bowl. Sportiello looked rusty in net, I don't expect that to continue. It looks like Pioli wants Loftus Cheek to assume what was Frank Kessie's role with the club. Milan feeble attempt at the title was due to the lack of Kessie in midfield. Olivier Giroud has better support with Colombo and Romero in the rotation.

This is a shocker, Luka Romero is only 18, though Argentine, he holds a Spanish passport making him a EU domestic.

Sadio Mane is moving to Saudi Pro League to join Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr. $40 million a year tax-free. These moves are great benefit to players. I am all in favour

You cannot buy passion. The Saudi League will never pick up because its all fake. All built on money… Heck the players do not even live in saudi arabia they settle in Bahrain where laws are a bit easier..

38 Premier League matches. FA Cup. Carabao Cup. Champions/Europa Leagues. Preseason matches. High intensity training twice a week. FIFA World Cup/UEFA European Cup qualifying matches. Nations League. World Cup/European competitions. If your name is Marcus Rashford, Harry Kane, Mason Mount, or any British player, this is the hellish schedule you are subjected to practically year round. That is the passion you are talking about?

Did you watch Messi’s first 2 game? Great play, great game, amazing finish, fireworks, celebrities and 1 billion viewership. That’s passion. Never saw a cr7 game in his new fake desert city…

You're missing Prince's point, those leagues are milking the top players for all their worth,
the players have to constantly give 100% but they're not machines, they fear getting injured, nothing to do with passion.

In the EPL, players dont even get a Christmas/New Year break. They play Boxing Day and throughout the holiday period. Insane

EPL is one example.
People have to ask themselves what makes some of these players consider moving to a B league in a harsh desert climate
when they could be living it up in Paris, London, Madrid. It's not just the money, all of them are very well paid
and can comfortably retire today if they choose to, so something is rotten.

The top teams pay well but want their money's worth simple as that, and if that means playing all those games
and in all the competitions you've listed then so be it, so the players have to work like race horses.
Not everyone is a Messi so the players know they're easily replaceable, it takes one look at the roster depth
of a top team to see who's chomping at the bits to take their place.

The EPL swallowed the poison pill when they allowed Arab and Russian Plutocrats to buy their football clubs. They now control the league and all non-fiefdom clubs have to march to their drum or be relegated. Leicester won the EPL Title in 2016, they are now in the Championship. Clubs are carrying too much excess baggage, more matches are scheduled to justify it. ManCity has 27 lawyers on their payroll, Juventus gets kicked out of European competition.

American Sportscasters have poo pooed on football for decades, yet football in North America continues to grow. Messi is energizing MLS while the Spanish/Italian Tour of the Southwest is a sell out everywhere they go. Gerry Cardinale took massive heat for selling Tonali, he's spent more on players than what he got from Newcastle. No decent highlights of Barcelona vs Milan yet.

Tonali will be miserable as a Geordie.

 

[Insidious Von]

I'm shocked,shocked I say, I though Koopmeiners was off to Liverpool.

Moncada has done brisk business since Tonalli was sold. On paper the NerroRossi midfield looks stronger than it's ever been. Obviously Gerry Cardinale has silenced his critics, he's not afraid to spend money. This leaves Krunic and De Katelere on the fringe, Koopmeiners may be Holland's most versatile midfielders. At just $48 million, that's relatively cheap.

Finally an English club being sensible.

Finally an English club being sensible.

They spent $120 million to acquire Enzo Fernandez. Now they are being sensible? LMFAO

Welcome to the Saudi Boiler League.

They must be made to pay reparations for all the terrorist attacks they sponsored including 9/11.

They're saying Donnarumma wants out of PSG and maybe going to Juve.
