Ex-Man City player Tijjani Reijnders admits he moved to Saudi Arabia for the money. 💰⚽ Former Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders has openly admitted that the financial package on offer was a major reason behind his move to Saudi club Al-Qadsiah. The 28-year-old left City in a £52 million deal after spending just one season at the Etihad. Despite showing flashes of quality following his move from AC Milan, Reijnders struggled to establish himself as a regular starter. Now playing under Brendan Rodgers at Al-Qadsiah, Reijnders is reportedly set to earn around £86 million over five years. Speaking about the move, he said: "Once my playing career is over, I don't want to have to work anymore." His comments come as Saudi clubs continue to attract high-profile players with lucrative contracts, transforming the country's football league into one of the sport's biggest spenders. #ThisIsMoney #Money #News #UK
