The upcoming season in Saudi Arabia is expected to be highly competitive and challenging. Following Al-Ittihad's recruitment, Al-Nassr is also gearing up for new season. Hakim Ziyech, who is reportedly close to finalizing personal terms with the club. Ziyech isi one of my favorite players at Stamford Bridge. I feel that he still has a lot to offer and would have preferred if he stayed in Europe for another season. However, sometimes things don't go as planned. As things stand, it would be exciting to see Ronaldo, Ziyech, and Zaha combination for Al-Nassr next season.
Al-Ittihad, Al-Nassr will be the two teams that are fiercely competing for next season and it seems that these two teams are preparing each other to become the greatest.
But of the two teams I tend to prefer Al-Nassr for next season and there seems to be great hope they can achieve that.
It looks like Ziyech is playing in Europe because he wants to boost his popularity and also his career in a big European team.
In fact, it's also not wrong because every player wants to be a player for a big and famous team.
The kingdom is more supportive and they're in the bid for 2030 World Cup which is the major reason for the importance of bringing popular players into the league. There were discusssions that the kingdom wants Saudi Arabia Pro League to be competitive with the old English Premier and European Leagues, but that isn't the truth. Because it is a known fact, some things can't be changed in a short.
The presence of Ronaldo into Al-Nassr have given good reach to the league. Al-Ittihad and Al-Nassr were much on the race to win the championship. Rest of the teams too perform well, and the signing of players weren't disclosed. Saudi Arabia Pro League is trying to do the best and do everything in the global standard. The league have taken big list of players and the next season will give clear data on how big investment were made on the league.
