Saudi concern for Al Ahliâs double Osimhen and Toney deal
Latest from Sky Sports Newsâ Kaveh Solhekol:
Senior sources in Saudi Arabia are saying they do not see how it is possible for Al Ahli to sign Victor Osimhen and Ivan Toney.
Al Ahli do not have two slots available for two foreign players - unless one of them is Under 21.
Saudi Pro League clubs are allowed 10 foreign players in their 25 player squads.
Sky Sports News also told they donât need another two strikers and they do not have the budget for both players.
To sign both players Al Ahli would have until Monday nightâs midnight SPL deadline to free up a slot by selling a foreign player.
so they have to sell one player
Which they will.

I remember a discussion here about whether Robbo deserved his place back because Gomez had played so well.
I wouldnât have Tsimi anywhere near the team for big games. I do think we could do with at least one more defender to cover potential injuries
Even better they will change the foreign player quota from 10 to 11. lol

Someone like Inacio. A LCB who can double up as a LB. Gomez really played well but offensively his output is lacking
Thoughts of Joao Neves deal to PSG? A 50 million pound deal for a 19 year old international isnt exorbitant. Had PSG not acted early think we would have pinched in. We were after Zubi and it kind of derailed this deal.

Decent fees too even if both will likely end up back in Europe after 12/24 months. Toney for 35-40m is nothing.

Arsenal and Chelsea should have been all over this deal. With Jackson upfront who cant hit a barn door - Chelsea are destined to finish 8th again and they will have to pray Palmer doesnt get injured.
Al Ahli may be close to signing both players but they havenât got them over the line yet. In fact, they might be able to buy both. Sky Sports is reporting that according Saudi sources it would not be possible.
"There is, however, some doubt over the double deals with senior sources in Saudi Arabia saying they do not see how it is possible for Al Ahli to sign Osimhen and Toney.

Doesnât matter
Looking at the Al Ahli squad, they only have 8 foreign players in their squad with ASM on loan and Barrow un/de-registered.
& just seen Bobby is the captain over there

Toney massively overrated. Will be glad to see Chelsea miss out on Osimhen though!

Everyone goes on about us been short but Arsenal still havenât addressed there glaring weekness a centre forward and City have sold there back up the Beluga Whale leaving them with just him.

Iâd have preferred another CB but we have two players for every position and a coach who has a much better track record of keeping players healthy.
If the argument is this that this squad isnât good enough, thatâs fine if you want to argue that, but to say its not deep enough seems a bit reactionary.
