“The ten priciest football transfers in the Saudi Pro League.”

Date:

The Saudi Professional League has emerged as a focal point in the world of football, attracting an array of top-tier players.

From those who have triumphed in the Champions League to World Cup victors, the SPL has experienced the influx of accomplished players carrying a wealth of expertise garnered from some of the most prominent clubs in European football.

The Saudi Public Investment Fund has injected substantial funds into the league to entice some of the globe’s premier athletes to the affluent oil-rich nation.

Among these notable figures stands Portuguese captain Cristiano Ronaldo, who made his move to Al-Nassr in the latter part of the previous December, departing his former team, Manchester United, on a free transfer after his return for a second tenure.

Notably, the most significant transfer within the league features Neymar, the 31-year-old forward hailing from the illustrious French giant PSG.

Having secured a treble victory with Barcelona and sharing the title of Brazil’s highest goal scorer with Pele, Neymar encountered both peaks and valleys during his tenure with PSG, grappling with injuries and match fitness concerns.

In the following list, we delve into the top 10 priciest football transfers in the SPL:

1. Neymar: €90m – PSG to Al-Hilal.
2. Malcom: €60m – Zenit to Al-Hilal.
3. Ruben Neves: €55m – Wolverhampton Wanderers to Al-Ittihad.
4. Fabinho: €46.7m – Liverpool to Al-Ittihad.
5. Sergej Milinkovic-Savic: €42m – Lazio to Al-Hilal.
6. Riyad Mahrez: €35m – Manchester City to Al-Ahli.
7. Sadio Mane: €30m – Bayern to Al-Nassr.
8. Jota: €29.1m – Celtic to Al-Ittihad.
9. Roger Ibanez: €28.5m – Roma to Al-Ahli.
