I honestly would have taken a one year offer to go to Saudi Arabia, and go to Real Madrid afterwards.

Seems to come down to whether your skills and appeal eroding during a year of barebones training are outweighed by the lesser but similar risk of playing in Saudi, combined also with uprooting your life for a year and assuming a higher risk of injury.

Yeah but Saudi Arabia would have paid him a lot more than PSG. That's the tradeoff, I guess haha.

I would far far far prefer getting paid 100M to sit in Paris for a year than getting paid 150M to get beat to shit by the heat playing in Saudi Arabia. Doubly so if Paris were my home where my family was.
