Agreed. I don't know the facts re Chelsea but I'd imagine that if any team has players to offload then the Saudi's are interested.They owe less than 2%, the Saudi’s are just desperate to make their league look legitimate, nothing more.
You'd think that they not only need the big names but they need a load of fillers too.
And also if the Saudis had any sense imo they'd be going out around the world to find promising 18-20s that are just missing out on making it in the top leagues and their academies, setup some academies in a few of their biggest Saudi clubs and get players to develop within their league and then leave for Europe once polished and ready. Grow from the bottom as well as the top and in 20 years they are a legitimate avenue to success. (This is piss easy)
