So do the FFP rules not apply in Saudi?
These clubs may be owned by super wealthy hedge funds and oil rich royal families, but surely if the actual revenue for the saudi clubs is low, sponsorship etc is low (and im pretty sure the revenues are nowhere near the european clubs) then how are they getting away throwing these transfer sums around?
Manchester city, Real Madrid, Barca etc, the wealthiest football teams in the world can't throw transfer fees like this around so how are teams in the non heard of saudi leagues able to to do it.
259million.
Wheres FIFA in all of this.
