Paulo Dybala Proves Cristiano Ronaldo Right With Big Saudi League Claim Amid Neymar & Karim Benzema’s Exit Rumors

Cristiano Ronaldo has never left any stone unturned in praising the Roshn Saudi League. Be it disparaging the MLS and asserting that the Saudi league is ‘more competitive’ than Ligue 1, the Portuguese star has fervently backed the Middle Eastern contest. However, exit rumors about Neymar and Karim Benzema have cast a shadow over the RSL’s future. Yet Paulo Dybala has come in support of CR7, claiming that he is ‘impressed‘ by the league’s sudden growth. 

In an interview with the Arab newspaper Al Arabi Al Jadeed and as compiled by Calcio Mercato, Dybala said, “The growth of the Arab League in the last two years has been incredible, both in terms of players and clubs, but also in terms of the quality of the game. I watched several matches on TV and I was impressed both by the level of play and from the passion of the fans, with the stadiums always full.” The Roma forward acknowledged that all of his Argentine teammates who play in the Saudi Pro League always speak highly of it. 

Dybala reminisced about the very first time he flew to the Middle East when he went to play in the 2019 Italian Super Cup with Juventus. He claimed that it was a positive experience for him and was struck by the dedication the fans possessed for ‘the beautiful game’. Indeed, these are some heartfelt claims from the 30-year-old forward about the Roshn Saudi League, which will certainly bring a smile to the faces of Ronaldo and all the Saudi Arabian fans. But will Dybala ever consider playing in the Saudi Pro League? Let’s hear from the man himself.

When asked if he would like to play in the SPL, Paulo Dybala pledged his alliance with his current side. “At the moment, I play for Roma and I imagine myself with them.” However, the winger did conclude with a subtle answer to play someday in the Gulf country, as well as in the MLS! 

He said, “The Arab championship is certainly one of the most important, together with MLS and European championships.” Notably, Dybala has been linked with a move to Al Nassr. In fact, the former Juventus star even fired a two-word message for Ronaldo’s beloved club. For now, he remains a Giallorossi, but let’s see what the future holds for him. After all, it’s evident that Dybala also has a positive image of the Saudi Pro League.
