Former Real Madrid defender Nacho has signed with Al-Qadsiah, a newly promoted club in the Saudi Pro League.
Nacho, who departed Real Madrid after an impressive 23-year stint, will officially join Al-Qadsiah following his participation in Euro 2024 with the Spanish national team.
Al-Qadsiah earned their promotion to the top tier of Saudi football last month after winning the First Division League. The club will be looking to Nacho’s experience and leadership to solidify their position in the league.
The Saudi Pro League has become a destination for high-profile players in recent years. Superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nassr) and Karim Benzema (Al-Ittihad), former teammates of Nacho at Real Madrid, ply their trade there as well.
The league’s financial muscle is undeniable. Last summer, the Saudi Pro League ranked fourth globally in terms of transfer spending, surpassing established leagues like Spain’s La Liga and Germany’s Bundesliga.
Nacho’s signing further bolsters the league’s reputation and adds another experienced player to a league on the rise. While his immediate focus remains on Euro 2024 with Spain, his future lies with Al-Qadsiah in Saudi Arabia.
