Sports Reference Blog

FBref now has the Saudi Professional League in its list of covered competitions, with statistics from its 2014-15 season to the 2019-20 season, which will start up later this month.

There aren't many Saudi players abroad, although this addition still helps for a couple of players in leagues we already cover. For example, Jamal Bajandouh is playing for Varaždin in Croatia's 1. HNL this year after spending 5 seasons with Al-Ittihad. One player to keep an eye on in this year's Pro League season is Djaniny, who went from an 18-goal season with Santos in Liga MX in 2017-18 to a 20-goal, 6-assist season with Al-Ahli last season, en route to a 4th place finish on the league table.
