Does European football need to be genuinely concerned about the Saudi pro league and the amount of money that is being thrown about?
I first thought it would be like the MLS, that is was just for ageing players going for a big pay day at the end of their careers (which it still is for some names I think), but there seems to be more and more players being targeted that are more in their prime - and worryingly, seemingly more actually considering it.
There is absolutely no prestige to play for whatsoever in going there, so it's all about the money for sure (and any player that says differently I just don't believe) - but in 5 years time, are they likely to be attracting the top Euro talent that will be at the top of their games (Bellingham, Foden, Haaland, TAA etc)?
