  1. Insane!

    Good for him. Anybody who says he would not take that deal is lying to themselves and for internet points.

    Yall would do worse things for less money than kick a ball

  2. Gutted he’s leaving but can’t be mad at him setting his family up for generational wealth, if he doesn’t bet it all lol! Class player and he’s awkwardly aged to take the spot of Kane really, so fuck it go get paid!

  3. Almost 100 mill contract for 4 years of football and he’ll only be 32 when contract finishes. That’s multi generational wealth. Very few people irrespective of current wealth would turn that down.

  4. I don’t really see the sense in these purchases. It’s pretty clear the Saudi League hasn’t taken off worldwide like they’d hope it would.

  5. By the way he’s absolutely not on 1 million a week……. he’s in 400k a week.

    The article is saying before taxes if it was in the UK he’d be on 1 million a week

  6. Take the money. Its so funny to me that most of the fans that are constantly hating on these type of transfers probably work a regular 9-5. Wouldnt you take 10 times your salary for a new job? Not every footballer is Giggs or Maldini, grow up.

  7. Not entirely on topic, but doesn’t he have a pretty visible cross tattoo? Aren’t outward displays of the Christian faith illegal in Saudi Arabia?

  8. the wording is weird cause i guess it’s due to taxation rules in uk, right? So his actual paycheck is much lower

  9. good for him, the media have fucked him over enough that no teams here wanted to give him a chance
