A Deep Dive Into The Saudi Pro League

On this episode (which is the second half of the previous episode’s recording), the crew has an in-depth discussion on the Saudi Pro League as well as the appointment of former Super Eagles Left-Back, Michael Emenalo as its first-ever Director of Football. Believe it or not, we somehow managed to bring Hushpuppi into this, while the famous Ghostbusters also get a mention. That aside, a few specific questions were answered along the way in this very interesting conversation.
