The agreement begins with the 2023/24 season, including both English and Spanish-language coverages. Soccer enthusiasts in America will therefore be able to watch all the world-class players who moved to the Gulf State this summer.
Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr are one of the strongest teams in the league, but the likes of Al-Ittihad, Al-Hilal and Al-Ahli are also heading into the new season with star-studded rosters.
Ronaldo and the other stars in Saudi Arabia
The Portuguese superstar shocked the world in January, when he signed for Al-Nassr after rescinding his Manchester United deal. But only a few months later, many other stars followed in his footsteps.
Ronaldo’s team recruited Sadio Mane, Marcelo Brozovic and Seko Fofana in this transfer window. Al-Hilal, meanwhile, landed Malcom, Kalidou Koulibaly, Ruben Neves and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Roberto Firmino, Riyad Mahrez, and Edouard Mendy, among others, joined Al-Ahli. In addition, Al-Ittihad pulled off the signatures of Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante and Fabinho.
