Sports law & global economy: Millions in investments in Saudi football - Saudi Pro League: how do transfers of players in Saudi Arabia work?

Recently, we have witnessed spectacular transfers to clubs from the Saudi Pro League. Who among us has not heard of top football players contracted by Al-Hilal Saudi Club, Al-Nassr Saudi Club, Al-Ittihad Club, or Abha Football Club?

The development of sports in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia raises several interesting questions:

• what are the motivations behind investing in Saudi football?
• do the authorities and clubs in Saudi Arabia implement any strategy?
• what is hidden under #VisitSaudi?
• what connects Leo Messi, Ruben Neves and Czeslaw Michniewicz?
• what is sportswashing and is there something wrong with it?
• how is the sports market regulated in Saudi Arabia - does Saudi Arabic sports law exist and how is the financing of sports in this country?
• what is the role of the Saudi Ministry of Sport and the Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) in the development of football in Saudi Arabia?
• what are the circumstances of concluding sports contracts, especially football contracts with Saudi Pro League clubs?
