Aymeric Laporte has lifted the lid on life as a footballer in Saudi Arabia after joining Al-Nassr from Manchester City.

After six trophy-laden seasons at the Etihad, Laporte joined the cohort of major stars of European football making the switch to the Gulf state last summer when he joined Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr.

The Spain international became the most expensive defender in the history of the Saudi Pro League on his arrival in Riyadh, but has since revealed that life at his new club has left a lot to be desired.
