Al-Qadsia Saudi Club's 79M Riyal Sale Revenue
Al-Qadsiah Saudi Club achieved direct financial profits amounting to approximately 79 million Riyals (about 21 million USD) from buying and selling emerging players, through an investment model focused on attracting and developing young talents to increase their market value before selling them at higher returns. The club invested in Ghanaian player Jerry Avery for 800,000 euros, then sold him to Belgian club Genk for around 6 million euros, resulting in nearly a 7.5-fold increase in the player's value. Additionally, the club made profits from the Argentine Ezequiel Fernández deal, in which they invested 20 million USD before selling him to Bayer Leverkusen for 35 million USD, while retaining a 15% stake in the resale value. This model reflects a strategic shift from merely spending on players to monetizing talent through development and future sales, aligning with a broader trend to increase investment in young talents following regulatory adjustments in the Saudi League. The goal is to enhance investment in the player transfer market and elevate clubs' ability to generate revenue from their sports investments.
