According to reports in the Calcio e Finanza media outlet, the Saudi Arabian Football Association is planning to participate in the UEFA Champions League. The winner of the domestic Saudi Pro League should take part in the European premier class from 2025.
Talks are currently being held between the Saudi Arabian association and UEFA to give the champions a place in the Champions League through a “wild card”. This should go hand in hand with the reformation of the competition from the 2024/25 season, which sometimes includes an increase in the number of participating teams to 36.
Daily Transfer News – Neymar to Al-Hilal
At the moment, the league from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is guiding new football professionals from Europe to the domestic league almost every day. Al-Hilal recently even managed to sign Brazilian offensive player Neymar. The Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, who moved from Manchester United to Al-Nassr, made the start in the last winter transfer window. The decisive factor here is currently the high salaries that are offered to the respective players, with the possibility of participating in the European Champions League, there could also be a greater sporting incentive, which is currently largely missing.
