Saudi football clubs are posing threat to European clubs
Saudi Arabian clubs are making big offers to attract star players
which is diverting global attention from European leagues.
Al-Hilal made an offer of €300 million for Kylian Mbappe
which would have been the most expensive transfer in history.
The offer is a statement of intent from the Saudi club and the Saudi league
who want to challenge European supremacy over club football.
It remains to be seen whether Saudi clubs will be able to sustain their spending spree, but they are certainly making a big impact on the global football landscape.
