Ruben Neves signing up for Al Hilal shows Saudi Pro League not just a retirement home

[ad_1] — Ruben Neves (@rubendsneves_) June 23, 2023 Ruben Neves is perhaps the most curious case of them all. The 26-year old Portuguese captains Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers. For a long time, the midfielder was touted for a starting berth at one of Europe’s top clubs. Neves had even agreed personal terms with Barcelona but the deal fell through due to Barcelona’s precarious financial situation. Now he has joined Al Hilal for a fee of €55 million. With Neves, it seems like money did the talking. For a player in his prime, leaving Europe for a league that plays at a lower footballing level seems unthinkable. And yet Neves has done it, and possibly set a precedent for more such moves to follow. Then there is a second set of players, those in their early 30s with plenty of o...
