Premier League players are allegedly interested in joining Saudi clubs this summer.

Last summer's transfer window saw the Saudi Pro League emerge as a credible destination for some of the world's best players.

While Saudi spending was more restrained in the January window, the league appears to be making another push to increase its appeal by attracting more big-name players this summer.

Several Premier League players have been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia this summer.

Ederson 

Ederson, the Manchester City goalkeeper, is reportedly getting interest from Al-Ittihad this summer. According to Mail Sport, City could make an initial £25 million bid for the Brazilian, who has been plagued by injuries this season but remains the club's number one and recently won his sixth Premier League title.

Mo Salah 

The Liverpool forward was the subject of a stunning £150 million bid from Al-Ittihad last summer, and the Guardian reports that he is once again on the radar of Saudi Pro League clubs.

According to David Ornstein of the Athletic, Salah is expected to stay with the club for another year. But, with only one season left on his contract, may the Reds be tempted to cash in and start again under new manager Arne Slot?

Alisson 

Salah's Liverpool teammate Alisson is also a target for Saudi Pro League clubs, according to the Guardian. The goalkeeper's contract extends until 2027, so it would take a large deal to entice him away from Anfield this summer.

Kevin de Bruyne

Another player that would constitute an enormous coup for the Saudi Pro League. According to the Mirror, De Bruyne is not interested in moving to the Middle East, although Al Hilal is leading the Saudi clubs' interest in the Belgian playmaker.

Kyle Walker 

According to The Sun, De Bruyne's teammate is more receptive to moving to Saudi Arabia this summer. They report that Walker is contemplating his alternatives, despite being content at Manchester City.

Casemiro

The Brazilian midfielder has struggled in his second season at Manchester United and could conclude his two-year Premier League career by moving to Saudi Arabia this summer.

The Telegraph reports that he could join former Real Madrid teammate Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr, with United willing to let him go.

Bruno Fernandes 

United captain Bruno Fernandes is also attracting interest from Saudi Arabia, despite the Telegraph reporting that this is "far less likely." Fernandes recently stated that the club must "want him" if he is to stay, and it would undoubtedly be a massive coup if a Saudi club could pull it off.

Edoardo Bove, a Fiorentina midfielder, slumped on the pitch during his team's Serie A match against Inter Milan on Sunday.

The event occurred in the 16th minute of the match, which was momentarily suspended at 0-0 and then abandoned with plans to reschedule later in the season. According to Sky Sport Italia, Bove was rushed to the Careggi Hospital near Fiorentina's Stadio Artemio Franchi. The Italian broadcaster later stated that Bove was breathing and beating on his own.

Botafogo, consisting of ten players, won their first Copa Libertadores versus Mineiro.

Botafogo won their first Copa Libertadores with a 3-1 victory over Atlético Mineiro. The all-Brazilian fight got off to a rousing start as Artur Jorge's team was reduced to ten men just 31 seconds in after Gregore was sent off for a high lunge on Fausto Vera. But the Estrela Solitária broke the deadlock with a sweeping finish from Luiz Henrique, who went on to win a penalty later in the half. Everson's foul on the winger was reviewed by VAR before Alex Telles cemented their dominance with a comfortable penalty kick just before halftime. Mineiro responded early in the second half, with Eduardo Vargas heading in Hulk's corner from the left, but the 2013 victors were unable to equalize. Júnior Santos' late goal secured victory for Artur Jorge's team in Buenos Aires' Estadio Monumental, sparking wild celebrations. Botafogo currently leads the Brasileirão by three points with two games remaining in 2024.
