Nacho going to... Al-Qadsiah? Look, folks, I know a good deal when I see one, and this ain't it. Al-Qadsiah is a relative newcomer; they are not the Yankees of Saudi soccer, exactly. They're investing in a name in the hopes that Nacho's residual Real Madrid charm will spread to them. Now Nacho is a decent player and a kind man. But lets be honest, his best days are behind him. This is a retirement move. With a healthy salary in a league that is, lets just say, not quite the Champions League, he is profiting off his reputation. Give me some time on this whole "new era" of Saudi football. A league is not changed by a few aging stars over night. A competitive league is built by more than just a few well-known players.

I know this is difficult to accept because he is a legendary Real Madrid player who plays as defender and captain of Real Madrid, but he has decided what he thinks is best for himself. When he gets older, he may be quite tired of playing in the European League where the competition is getting fiercer. He is aware that his performance at Real Madrid will be replaced by younger players because every year Real Madrid recruiting talented young players.

He spent 10 years with Real Madrid and now it is time for him to leave the big club that bears his name. Playing at Al Qadsiah could perhaps be said to be the end of his time and could be said to be his last place of retirement and he will play with a club that is not at the top of the Saudi League but he will show the best he can as he did at Real Madrid perhaps requires adaptation first because he is not yet used to playing with a Saudi Arabian club.

I know that a league cannot be changed by old players, but the fact is that the Saudi League cannot recruit potential young players from the European League apart from waiting for the players to get older. But the Saudi League always considers recruiting star players from big clubs, this is to increase the club's reputation, star players from big clubs also have good performance so Al Qadsiah's goal is to recruit Nacho from Real Madrid because he is a defender that Real Madrid always relies on, who knows, he could perform well at Al Qadsiah and help the club perform better.
