Incredible XI of stars who could play in Saudi Arabia next season with Cristiano Ronaldo, Kante and Bernardo Silva

AN incredible XI of stars are set to line up in Saudi Arabia next season.

The Middle Eastern nation is embarking on a mammoth spending spree in a bid to make its Pro League one of the top competitions around.

Cristiano Ronaldo was the first player to leave Europe for Saudi, joining Al-Nassr in January after leaving Manchester United.

He was later joined by Karim Benzema, who opted against signing a new Real Madrid deal to join Al-Ittihad.

Should the ex-Los Blancos teammates ever combine again in a Saudi Pro League XI, they would make for a fearsome partnership.

And the duo could yet be joined by Bernardo Silva, who is the subject of a mega-money approach from an unnamed side.

The Portugal star has just helped Man City win the Treble, and is considered to be at the peak of his power.

But Silva’s not the only Premier League ace who could shortly feature in the Gulf State.

Chelsea duo Callum Hudson-Odoi and teammate Hakim Ziyech are both wanted by Saudi sides, with the latter’s Al-Nassr move almost completed.

Should an All-Star XI ever come to fruition, they would be ideal candidates to play in the wide wing-back areas thanks to the influence of ex-Blues boss Thomas Tuchel

A potential Saudi Pro League All-Star XI

Another former Stamford Bridge man would definitely line up in midfield though, with N’Golo Kante completing a free transfer to Al-Ittihad this week.

The World Cup winner was set to pen a new deal with Chelsea before the Saudis made their move.

And Kante could be joined in the heart of the XI by Wolves captain Ruben Neves, who may cost nearly £50million when he joins Al-Hilal.

As for the defence, there’s yet another Chelsea man involved, with Kalidou Koulibaly also set for Al-Hilal after agreeing a lucrative contract.

And he could play alongside two men who are now free agents.

Matt Doherty is on the hunt for a new club, just six months after joining Atletico Madrid from Tottenham.

Yerry Mina is also wanted by Saudi sides after quitting Everton.

And finally, the All-Star XI goalkeeper slot is set to be filled by Edouard Mendy.

The Senegal ace has lost out to Kepa Arrizabalaga in the bid to be Chelsea’s No1 next term.

And he is now ready to revive his career with Al-Ahli.
