Saudi Sovereign fund

[kerem gokmen]

What is coming, is coming....
Saudis is gonna make the transfer market upside down, starting from this summer. this is the biggest issue, i believe, at least for relatively smaller clubs at the moment.

At the moment, they are offering icardi (gala player last year, the hero) EUR100mio or something, which is an amount impossible to compete. UEFA should take action. but they will not; as we know.

Why has Saudi sovereign fund taken over kingdom’s football clubs?

As more star players arrive, country announces launch of investment and privatisation project in bid to grow sport.

It’ll be like the Chinese experiment and will soon vanish


To clarify football not alleged Covid

Not much UEFA can do about it. This is capitalism.

Icardi is from Rosario in Argentina, so fans of Central and Newell's Old Boys are probably not happy that Barca, Inter, PSG, and Galatasaray can pay him more money than they can offer.

In my opinion these are not sensible investments and it won't last forever. Might last slightly longer than the Chinese super league but they won't become the 5th best league as they are aiming to.

You sound like one of those other fans who complains about City spending money.

A bit embarrassing tbh.

It wasn't long ago people were saying the same about China.

Ultimately they're fucked by their country. This isn't like flying in for a golf or tennis tournament and flying out again. If you're going to play in a league, you're going to have to live there long-term. What 20-something man from Western Europe is going to want to move to Saudi? A young James Milner, perhaps.

 

[kerem gokmen]

no, city has a history, a deep culture... i have no problem of those clubs with a culture&history spending money.

in general, i believe the transfer market is a big bubble lately. too much black money etc....

:))) we (as gala fans) have trust in Wanda Nara (wife of icardi) since she probably will not go to saudi arabia... but 100 mio EUO is so big. who knows.
