Agent Federico Pastorello expects the Saudi Pro League to eventually match the Premier League.

Pastorello has done business with SPL clubs this summer.

He told Sportmediaset: "Football in Arabia is more the present than the future. This year's market, in addition to the Premier League which is a Super League, it was dominated by Saudi Arabia. It's a movement that will last for many years, from the information I have.

"The Government's objective is to make the country known through football, bringing players of this level to Saudi and their objective is also to sell television rights all over the world. I expect the market in Saudi to become a market like the Premier League. It will be customary."
