At the top of the list are Manchester City superstar Kevin De Bruyne and Liverpool superstar Mo Salah. Virgil van Dijk, Alisson, Raphaël Varane, Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, and Andreas Pereira are also wanted by the Middle East country teams, and they would be happy to buy them in the upcoming summer transfer window.
However, Saudi Pro League sides want to change the strategy, and now they are also looking to ink young talents as 1 of the targets is the Old Lady 20-year-old striker Matìas Soulè.
It is very unlikely that the SPL will spend almost 1 billion dollars as they did in 2023, but they will not shy away from paying a big transfer sum for the players they want to see in Saudi Arabia.
Al Ahli want to ink a forward, Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr search for a goalkeeper, and Al Ittihad would pay huge sums for a centre-back and a central midfielder.
