Oliver Kahn, the CEO of FC Bayern Munich, recently visited Al-Nassr FC in Saudi Arabia, where he met with two of the club’s star players, Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mané.
Kahn was invited to the club by Al-Nassr’s president, Musalli Al-Muammar, and was given a tour of the club’s facilities, including its training ground and stadium. Kahn also had the opportunity to watch the team train and to meet with the players and coaching staff.
After the training session, Kahn met with Ronaldo and Mané for a private conversation. The three men discussed a variety of topics, including the Saudi Pro League, their hopes and goals for the upcoming season, and their thoughts on the future of football.
Kahn was impressed by both Ronaldo and Mané, and he was particularly complimentary of their professionalism and dedication. He also praised Al-Nassr FC for its ambitions and its commitment to developing the Saudi Pro League.
Kahn’s visit to Al-Nassr FC is a sign of the growing interest in the Saudi Pro League from European clubs and players. The league has attracted a number of high-profile signings in recent years, including Ronaldo, Mané, and former Bayern Munich coach Rudi Garcia.
The Saudi Pro League is still in its early stages of development, but it is rapidly growing in popularity and stature. The league has a number of ambitious clubs, and it is investing heavily in infrastructure and youth development.
It is too early to say whether the Saudi Pro League will ever become as competitive as the top European leagues, but it is clear that the league is making significant progress. The arrival of players like Ronaldo and Mané is a major boost for the league, and it will be interesting to see how it develops in the coming years.
