Well China were trying it a few years back as well weren't they ?

I'm sure they were paying silly money for Championship and Premier League squad players and also paying them upwards of £500k a week. That collapsed after a few years, but then I suppose the Saudis essentially have infinite money though.

He's given an interview now saying it wasn't about the money.

That's like me going into a McDonalds and saying I'm not there for the Big Macs.

Generational wealth for these players, impossible to turn down

Yes, easy for us to say. But he's still a twat.
