    Few big players, who aren't over the hill, heading there already. Neves, Milinkovic-Savic, Brozovic and Mendy. Mitrovic from Fulham is also pushing for a move there.

    It'll be interesting to see if they can sign a proper big name in the peak of their powers from a bigger European club. Might open the floodgates.

    It sounds like Bernardo Silva wants to go.

    I think we are already past the point for a lot of players to chose to go. Too many have already made the move.

    Madrid will be panting it over the ongoing saga to sign Mbappe.
    Lads prime for making a big money transfer to SA as he winds down his PSG deal, yet hasn't confirmed to Madrid fully.

    They’ll end up with a champions league place at some point in the next 5 years

    As much as I hate the financial muscle they are flexing in world football…. And I DO detest it…

    I fkkn love the disruption and meltdowns it is causing elsewhere ….

    Epl pundits, clubs and former players like Neville greeting about what they are doing to the game without a hint of awareness that sky and their precious £££ bloated EPl has been doing the same thing for over 2 decades.

    Wouldn’t put it past them….

    Can’t wait for them to use Israeli clubs in UCL as a precedent.

    There will be panic alarms going off somewhere in Nyon or wherever it is the greedy money men meet.

    How do you mean? There’s already Israeli clubs in the CL, they just never qualify for the groups

    As in…. we already have non-European clubs competing in uefa competitions… The Saudis (and uefa) could argue there’s no difference in their teams joining.

    Funny how you don’t hear any indignant points about Saudi money with regard to Newcastle United.

    It’s the same money… and Eddie Howe plus every player there are being paid from the same source - the only difference being where they actually live and play.

    There’s no difference for me.
