In January 2023, the Saudi Pro League signed an out-of-favour Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United, making its biggest impression on the footballing world. The signing of a talented player from a European powerhouse by an unorthodox league caused a stir in that move.

When the Portuguese footballing great transferred from Manchester United to Al Nassr in January, it seemed to start a trend.

Since then, a number of well-known athletes have stepped in his footsteps, leaving the richest and sunniest European competitions for the Saudi Pro League.

In the current transfer window, the following represents a few of the most noteworthy deals made by clubs in the kingdom.
