There is only a month left since the start of the winter transfer period for the 2022-2021 season, on the fifth of January 2021, and will continue until the first of next February, and although it is too early to talk about the Arab Gulf League clubs making new changes and contracts, but the levels presented by foreigners in The past eight rounds revealed the presence of nine clubs, at the very least, threatening a large number of their players with the "guillotine of exclusion" in the upcoming winter transfers.

The clubs of Sharjah, Baniyas, Al Dhafra, Al Jazeera and Ittihad Kalba are the most stable at the level of foreign players, as the defending champion has four players among the best in the league competition, with the best player in the 2019-2020 edition, Igor Kornado, Brazilian Caio Lucas, and the Uzbek Utapek Shukorov, Finally, the return to the "king", the Brazilian Wilton Suarez, while the South African Thulani Serero and the Serbian Milos Kosanovic continued their brilliance with the island, who competes with only three foreign players, by contracting with the Nigerian Emoah Ezequiel, who appeared well with the team.

For his part, Bani Yas contracted with three new foreign players during the summer transfer period, and kept the services of Serbian defender Sasha Ivkovic, while the Brazilian Joao Pedro and Argentinians Gaston Suarez and Nicholas Khomez included, where the four players present very excellent levels with the "heavenly", and the situation is no different. As for Al-Dhafra, which includes Moroccan Issam Al-Adwa, the Jordanian Yassin Al-Bakhit, the Dutch Mikhail Rocheville, and the Brazilian Denelson Pereira, who appeared well with the team, while the foreign players appeared in the Kalba Union at an excellent level, with the presence of Chilean Junior Fernandez and Argentine Matthias Pisano, in addition to Brazilian Wanderson and Togolese Menel Malaba.

On the other hand, the historical champion of the Arab Gulf League, Al-Ain team, tops the list of clubs that are not satisfied with the outcome of foreign players, as the Angolan Wilson Eduardo did not provide the response that the "leader" fans were expecting from him, while the services of the Kazakh, Islam Khan, was dismissed due to his suspension from The AFC side, while Togolese Laba Kodjo and Japanese Tosaka Shiotani maintained their place as the most prominent players in Violet.

Although Shabab Al-Ahly made heavy contracts at the level of foreign players, including Brazilian Carlos Eduardo and Cape Verdean player Hildon Ramos, this duo has not yet proven its existence, and the Uzbek Aziz Ganiyev appeared as the best foreign player in the "Dubai Knights", followed by Argentine Federico Cartabia, while surpassing all foreign players, was the Brazilian "resident" Igor Jesus.

The same applies to Al Wasl, who is playing the tournament with four new players compared to last season, but the fluctuation of the levels of Brazilian Joao Figredo, Argentine Nicolas Oroz, Brazilian Ronaldo Mendes and Brazilian Santos Neres, makes one of them, or more than one player, a candidate to leave the team in January. Next.

For his part, victory is not largely a club that needs to change a foreign player, but the fluctuating level of the Dutch Brandley Coase makes him a candidate to leave the team in the event that there is another deal that suits the "captain". As for the unit, foreign players have not yet made the real addition to the team. Especially the Moldovan Lvonor Henrique, who missed a number of matches due to injury.

As for the clubs most in need of changing a number of foreign players, they are the clubs that occupy the last four places in the ranking list, namely: Khor Fakkan, Fujairah, Ajman and Hatta.

Rakan Al-Ajami: The citizen players are the secret of the superiority of many clubs

Of foreign players ».

He added: “There are some clubs that do not need to make a change in the list of foreign players, such as Al Dhafra, Baniyas, Sharjah Al Jazira and Ittihad Kalba, while most other clubs, if you find names and deals available during the winter transfer period, it would be better for them to dispense with the services of players. Those who did not look well ».
