Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba is the latest player to be linked with a move away to Saudi Arabia after enduing a tough season in Italy.
Karim Benzema left Real Madrid to join Saudi Pro League side Al Ittihad on Tuesday, signing a three-year deal and N’Golo Kante is on the verge of joining him there.
Cristiano Ronaldo moved to the Middle East earlier this year to join Al-Nassr, and he believes his move opened “a box” for other players to follow in his footsteps.

Paul Pogba: On The Move To Saudi Arabia?
Saudi officials want to add more European talent to the league, and Pogba is the next name linked with a move.
The 30-year-old has endured an injury-riddled campaign in Serie A following his return to Turin last summer. Despite his struggled he has insisted he wants to stay at Juventus, however the Italian side are looking at a potential rebuild this summer.
Massimiliano Allegri’s side will play in the Europa Conference League qualifying rounds, after missing out on Champions League and Europa League football – and this could lead to the departure of Pogba.
The opportunity to offload Pogba to Saudi Pro League may be tempting for Juve, while a potential transfer would be another significant signing for the league.
