Honestly I cannot blame them — €200m a year is crazy! I don't get the sense that anyone outside of Saudi Arabia really follows the teams or league there either, so there's little risk of these players tarnishing their career in the eyes of the public really. Easy money.

I think the Saudi League will become more prominent, especially as more players join. It will have more relevance than when superstars join the Chinese league or MLS. Therefore making Saudi a bigger "soft" power in football.

How many more superstars are going to finish their career in Saudi? €200m a year is crazy
Messi incoming?

The sport has been corrupted by money for a long time. The Arab countries have just kicked it up a gear in recent times.
