This is a threat to European clubs, and no one is spared. Even if it is true that some players have had setbacks on the Saudi side, like Karim Benzema or Jordan Henderson who has already returned to Europe, the Saudi Pro League remains a very attractive destination for players. best players of the Old Continent.

Modric is disappointed

It must be said that last summer, Modric thought he was still going to be important in Madrid this season. However, the reality is very different. For example, he did not play a single minute in the last two matches, against Almeria and Las Palmas, where the Merengue also struggled.
