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.
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.
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.
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.
Ivan Toney continued his sensational form in the Saudi Pro League, proving once again why he is the division’s most feared marksman. During Al-Ahli’s high-stakes Sea Derby clash against arch-rivals Al-Ittihad, the England international opened the scoring in a 3-1 victory that saw his side reclaim top spot in the table. However, it was his post-goal antics that caught the eye of social media users across the globe.
Al-Ittihad have identified Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga as their top target to replace N'Golo Kante following his move to Fenerbahce. The Saudi Pro League side are reportedly preparing a bank-busting offer to lure the France international away from the Santiago Bernabeu, hoping to capitalise on his desire for a guaranteed starting role.
Mohamed Salah is reportedly in talks with Saudi Pro League giants Al-Ittihad over a potential move in the summer transfer window. The Egyptian has been a long-term target for Saudi Arabian clubs since the Public Investment Fund (PIF) first started pouring cash into the country's top league and Salah, who has endured a tetchy and difficult season at Liverpool, is wanted as their next marquee signing this year.
Harry Kane has been targeted by Saudi Pro League clubs ahead of the summer transfer window, per a new report from Kicker. The England captain has a contract until 2027 but the new report states that a release clause may well exist in his current deal. Kane has impressed again this season with Bayern, scoring 24 times in just 21 Bundesliga games for the Bavarians.
Karim Benzema became caught up in an angry exchange with a journalist following his stunning debut for Al-Hilal. The veteran French striker has sparked remarkable scenes in the Saudi Pro League - with Cristiano Ronaldo going on strike - after completing a free transfer. Benzema has refuted suggestions that he left Al-Ittihad without saying goodbye to his former team-mates.
Cristiano Ronaldo has threatened to leave Al-Nassr in the summer as he continues his strike action against the club, CBS Sports reports. The Portugal superstar missed the 1-0 win over Al-Riyadh in protest at PIF's decision to transfer Karim Benzema from Al-Ittihad to Al-Hilal.
Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly poised to bring his surprising strike action at Al-Nassr to a close, with the Portuguese icon prepared to face Al-Ittihad in a crucial Saudi Pro League fixture on Friday. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner sat out a derby date with Al-Riyadh after supposedly growing frustrated at how transfer funds are being distributed across teams in the Middle East.
Why does Cristiano Ronaldo always have so much bad luck?!... First, Erik ten Hag didn't recognise his unrivalled ability at Manchester United, then Fernando Santos ruined his 2022 World Cup bid with Portugal. And now, the powers that be in Saudi Arabia are conspiring to make sure his trophy drought in the Middle East extends to three-and-a-half seasons. Give the guy a break!...
Karim Benzema has ignited a storm in the Saudi Pro League by branding his new club Al-Hilal the "Real Madrid in Asia" immediately after completing a controversial transfer from rivals Al-Ittihad. While the Frenchman eyes more silverware, the move is said to have infuriated Al-Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo, who reportedly attempted to block it.
Three years ago, Cristiano Ronaldo stunned the sporting world by joining Al-Nassr. Six months later, the Portuguese trailblazer was joined in the Saudi Pro League by a number of high-profile players, including Karim Benzema, Neymar, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Aymeric Laporte. Some of those superstars were clearly past their prime, but the mere fact that they were willing to move to the Middle East felt significant.
N’Golo Kante has officially completed a dramatic move to Fenerbahce after agreeing to terminate his contract with Al-Ittihad. The French World Cup winner has put pen to paper on a deal until June 2028, returning to European football after FIFA finally granted the green light following an administrative blunder that had initially derailed the switch.
