...is this why they've been spending billions on players euro top sides?
They are in Asia, but may argue Israel is in Asia too but plays in/with Europe.
This is where diplomacy will prevail, on who's side? we will see.
MBS looking for acceptance, next apply to join NATO

UEFA clubs will fight this move. Mostly for economic reasons while the likes of PSG, for political reasons.

As a fan, I say But that would turn the UEFA CL into a Super league(?). I’m sure UEFA wouldn’t mind a Super league as long as they control it. They opposed the last Super league proposal because it was out of their direct control.

...if they are admitted, would interesting to see a Saudi club go play in Israel, or Israel go to Saudi Arabia.
I doubt it will happen as they will find a way to manipulate the draw.

Why, would this be a problem? The two countries have a friendlier relationship.

They no longer want to destroy each other. Yet there is still a long way to go before they can be classified as friendly.

...the ogas at the top may be "friends", the regular citizens don't like each other.

Forward thinking idea.

Somebody needs to challenge UEFA.

To think it would be Saudi Arabia.

[Dammy]

Is there a limit to the number of foreign players a Saudi club can sign?

[Coach]

The depth of the delusion surpasses Davey Jones’ locker. Ligue 1 of all leagues. Sleep punctuated by the clinking of ever increasing medallions jostling for space on the mantlepiece. Tremendously rich poor chap.

Just imagine an Al Shabab or whatever wins the CL before Arsenal?

The funniest part of it is that you know its possible.

[danfo driver]

The most interesting thing about this interview is that this guy is significantly bigger than Arsenal, for instance. He has more CL than Arsenal. Has a larger fan base than Arsenal and no person who has ever been affiliated with Arsenal in any capacity is as god as him in football. In fact, and frankly, his picture is more recognizable than Arsenal's badge ANYWHERE IN THRE WORLD.

Money can do it.

And we'd just see a Saudi team full of European players in the tourney. They could get so audacious that, in some years to come, the UCL could be won by a Saudi team. Then UCL will just become CL. Money answers to all things, just that not all answers are correct.

Definitely not.

...hurry she's getting old.
Got her mixed up with Tiffany Haddish, the often dui arrested gal, she needs a man badly.

That said, the Saudis ain't gonna join ucl.
They may have the money, but they don't have the clout like Israel playing in Europe instead of Asia like other mid east countries.

[green4life]

The Super League will happen eventually in one form or another. These external financial pressures can't be wished away.

I believe their league winner was beaten quite handily by Al Ahly in the recently concluded World Club tourney. Their league is probably no better than the Egyptian or S African league.
