Modern Football has undoubtedly taken an interesting turn, much like the world, which is rather capitalistic in its approach to life. We live in a fast-connected world through technology and social media. In NeymarJr.’s recent transfer news to Saudi Club, Al-Hilal garnered over 200m views compared to Lionel Messi’s 17m in Inter Miami on Twitter, where someone with a more extensive reach certainly drives the narrative forward.

Fans were shocked at the events, but the difference in the sport’s following in both countries must be considered. While Saudi Arabia is coming straight out of hosting the recent FIFA World Cup a few months back, The USA has turned its attention towards other sports in recent years commercially. The MLS has driven broadcasting forward, but the American public still does not seem completely immersed in the sport.

On the other hand, Saudi Arabia sees the potential, much like the rest of the world. They have been on a heist this season of Europe’s biggest stars. With Neymar’s transfer completed, they have made a statement of power and pull. Asia has been waiting for football’s influence for a long while, and now it seems like the perfect boom point for multiple countries, including India.

In Retrospect, Neymar will certainly have the world’s attention on his feet and tricks. Finally, he will have an environment where he will be loved and appreciated. However, fans will always wonder what his potential could have been. If he wasn’t playing in the current era of limelight and fame, and not just the beautiful game. Many players like Odion Ighalo have blatantly agreed that the Saudi offers were too good to be refused, and they put their futures into consideration.

Fans have reacted to Neymar’s move to Saudi Arabia, gathering a higher engagement than Leo Messi to Inter Miami. Some expressed that he would have a massive influence on the league below his level.

Others were still respectful of his decision as a professional. However, they confessed that his talents would certainly be missed in Europe.

While the demographics have been considered, if Neymar has more influence than Messi at his new club. It will be massive. Initially, most people have considered it illogical to compare both the moves, but it will certainly be something to turn your eye to if Neymar’s deal turns out to be more than just a ‘money move.’
