I see now that Moutinho from Wolves could be the next to join the Saudi League. It’s a real shame Messi didn’t go there but that just proves that money can’t buy everything. It’s a really different life out there but it doesn’t seem to be stopping multiple older stars from swapping Europe for Saudi Arabia. Will be really interesting to see how the league develops over the next few years.
Actually money can buy everything because in this case, Messi is going to get a better deal at MLS than the Saudi Arabia league. The Saudis came with offers that'll only benefit Messi instantly but the offers of MLS would benefit Messi for a life time. He's going to get a share in apple share and adidas and might also be getting similar deal to David Beckham deals that'll give him the right to buy a club for much lesser market value than the club will be valued as of when he wants to purchase the club. Messi deals hasn't been fully revealed but there's every chance it was the better deal than what the Saudis were offering. I'm glad too that Messi didn't go to Saudi Arabia because that would have shifted the whole attention to the league and it would had spoiled football.
I'm not happy Ronaldo is playing there either, he should look for a way to come back to Europe and entertain us because football has been boring lately (nothing special is happening in Europe). No spectacular display anymore. Kante moving to Saudi Arabia is understandable and the same thing with Benzema because this guys has nothing left to offer to football in Europe, Kante is wornout and Benzema needs to give room for younger strikers to shine at Real Madrid to help them compete with clubs like Manchester city in the champions league.
