The arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo was a game-changer for the Saudi Pro League. In the wake of the Portuguese star’s move from Manchester United to Al-Nassr, a number of stars have decided to take their talents to the Gulf state.

This summer, Saudi Arabian clubs are making all the headlines as they continue to recruit world-class players to improve their league. Karim Benzema, for instance, left Real Madrid to sign a lucrative deal with Al Ittihad.

Ronaldo’s club is also giving a lot to talk about on the rumor mill, having reportedly signed Marcelo Brozovic while trying to secure Hakim Ziyech. On top of that, a Man United star could also be on the way.

The report claims Al-Nassr are willing to offer de Gea £250,000 a week , which is way more than what United would offer him. In fact, the aforementioned outlet also claims the Red Devils tried to re-sign him on a lower contract.
