Fermín López, the young FC Barcelona midfielder, has recently drawn serious interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia. At just 21 years old, Fermín is already being targeted with lucrative offers - reportedly more than €8 million net per season - that could set him and his family up for life. The appeal for him is clear: move while still young, secure his financial future, and return to European football later at peak form if he chooses. It’s widely known that Barcelona, and indeed most if not all clubs in Europe, would not be willing or even able to compete with the Saudi League in terms of salary.
