The Arab transfer market has been completely crazy, as Saudi Arabia's petrodollars became irresistible for the highest level players in European football. Cristiano Ronaldo was the one who orchestrated the mass exodus of the great talents of the old continent, who chose to go to a football with lower demands and more money.
Karim Benzema did not resist and went to Al-Ittihad, along with his teammate N'golo Kanté. After them, other great players joined the Saudi Pro League, such as the former Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy, the Croatian Marcelo Brozovic and the Senegalese star Sadio Mané, who only lasted one season at Bayern Munich.
Even young talents have not resisted petrodollars, and that is how the young Spanish promise Gabri Veiga arrived in Al-Ahli, who refused to reinforce the current champion of the Italian Seria A, Naples. It is no secret to anyone that the Arab league does not have the same level as any European league, but having so many stars together makes it more watched.
The intention of the Saudi Pro League is to continue adding more stars from the old continent to try to raise the level of the league and thus be able to compete in a great way in the 2034 World Cup, since FIFA has already awarded Saudi Arabia the venue for the tournament. most important in the world. To achieve this, in the Middle East they are considering reinforcing themselves with more Real Madrid idols.
A new Merengue idol
Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema are the idols of Real Madrid present in Arabia, but according to the media Fútbol Fichajes, several clubs in the Saudi Pro League are interested in signing Casemiro. The current Manchester United player would not frown upon leaving the theater of dreams. Although the media does not specify which teams want him, it is known that the interest is real and that, possibly, he could go to the Middle East next winter.
