Saudi Pro League news

Manchester United face a defining summer as they look to secure the future of club captain Bruno Fernandes. Despite his massive influence at Old Trafford, a secret release clause and interest from Europe's elite have left the Red Devils making urgent pleas to their talisman to stay.

Harry Kane may be enjoying a record-breaking stint in Germany, but Bayern Munich honorary president Uli Hoeness has admitted that a massive offer from Saudi Arabia could still change the striker's future. Despite the England captain being settled in Bavaria, the lure of Middle Eastern riches remains a factor the club cannot entirely ignore.

AC Milan have opened preliminary talks to bring Mateo Retegui back to Italy. Following a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia, the striker is being evaluated as a key solution to Massimiliano Allegri’s attacking woes.

Manuel Neuer has received the ultimate praise as he celebrates his 40th birthday, with former manager Felix Magath ranking the goalkeeper alongside the greatest players to ever grace the pitch. The Bayern Munich captain, whose future remains a subject of intense speculation, has been categorised in the same bracket as multiple Ballon d'Or winners Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

As Mohamed Salah prepares to bid farewell to the Premier League, the Saudi Pro League has emerged as the most likely destination for the 33-year-old. While Al-Nassr remains a financial powerhouse in the region, questions have been raised about how the Egyptian would fit alongside Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese icon has previously called for more investment in the squad, but there are doubts whether he would want another global superstar sharing the spotlight in Riyadh.

Cristiano Ronaldo has long been linked with a glamorous move to Major League Soccer to wrap up his legendary career, but one USMNT icon believes that ship has sailed. As the Portuguese superstar continues his journey in the Saudi Pro League, questions are being asked about whether he has the physical longevity to ever touch down in North America.

Everton’s loan agreement with Manchester City for Jack Grealish includes a £50 million ($67m) purchase option, but the England international is expected to go for less than that figure in the summer transfer window. Richard Dunne, who spent time on Merseyside at the Etihad in his playing days, has told GOAL why - amid MLS and Wrexham talk - Grealish could become a cut-price option for someone.

Following the news that he will be leaving Liverpool FC next summer, Al-Ittihad appears to be making moves to sign Mohamed Salah.

Al-Ittihad have reportedly reignited their interest in Mohamed Salah just hours after the Egyptian superstar confirmed he will leave Liverpool at the end of the season. The Saudi Pro League giants are ready to make the 33-year-old the new face of their project following his emotional farewell announcement at Anfield.

The Belgian attacking midfielder could leave Italy after just one season: at almost 35, his physical condition will be a decisive factor

Al-Ittihad are pursuing Manchester United’s Casemiro as he nears the end of his tenure at Old Trafford. The 34-year-old, who will leave the club on June 30, has emerged as a top priority for the club Saudi Arabian side. However, the fate of ex-Liverpool star Fabinho will play a key role in this transfer, making the Brazilian’s move dependent on internal squad changes.

Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has waded into the debate surrounding Neymar's legacy, directly challenging former team-mate Wayne Rooney’s recent suggestion that the Brazilian was never a "top, top player". Speaking on his podcast, the former England defender insisted that at his peak, Neymar possessed a level of flair and technical ability that rivalled Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. While acknowledging Rooney's own greatness, Ferdinand argued that the Santos star was once the undisputed heir to the global throne.

Cristiano Ronaldo Jr is reportedly in line to join Real Madrid after training with the club's prestigious youth academy. The 15-year-old forward, who has been developing his game at Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, joined the Merengues' Under-16 squad for a session on Tuesday. He could now follow in the illustrious footsteps of his father, who is the all-time leading goalscorer in Real Madrid history.

Fabinho has backed Neymar to make Brazil's 2026 World Cup squad, claiming the Santos star remains his country's "most talented player" despite his ongoing fitness struggles. As Carlo Ancelotti’s current squad prepares for a high-profile friendly against France, the debate surrounding Neymar’s physical condition and international future continues to dominate the narrative.

Cristiano Ronaldo has taken to social media to provide a positive update on his fitness as he continues his rehabilitation from a muscle injury. The Al-Nassr superstar is currently sidelined after picking up a thigh problem, but his latest activity suggests that a return to action is not far away.
