Incentive: Go play in Europe

By: Shahed | June 8th, 2006 | 3 Comments »

Yasser Al Qahtani, in a press conference, said that he plans to move to Europe after the World Cup. For him, the World Cup is a platform for showing his skills to everyone. Kojah also mentioned during the same press conference, that there are around 7 to 8 players looking to play at Europe after the World Cup.

Hopefully with good performance, these talented Saudi players will open the door for more Saudis to go abroad.
