Saudi Pro League Planning Another Mega Splash in the Winter Transfer Window

Tottenham forward Richarlison is emerging as a prime target for Saudi Pro League clubs in January.

According to the Telegraph, Saudi Pro League clubs are preparing for the winter transfer window as funding is almost finalized and confirmed. This will give these SPL clubs significant financial muscle and spending power that could be attractive to many superstars in major European leagues and beyond.

Apart from Richarlison, Jadon Sancho at Manchester United is also another target. Sancho’s case is easier because he has fallen out with manager Erik Ten Hag, making him potentially more open to moving to the Middle East.

Heung-Min Son of Tottenham and Mohamed Salah of Liverpool are more ambitious targets, with moves deemed extremely difficult in the middle of the season, and their respective clubs engaged in the title race.

The names of the specific Saudi Pro League clubs remain to be seen, but they are primed to be major players in the window.
