It was much more normal to expect the 'retreat of gold' in United States, as they did it several legends in his day, that decided to leave of Europe before the 35 years. The history has changed completely by the irruption of Saudi Arabia, that insists in carrying to all the 'cracks' of the old continent to do of his League one much more competitive and win more visibility.
It is innegable that, with the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo in January to the To the-Nassr opened him the doors to the Saudi football.
