It’s a relatively quiet morning for Saudi in the foreign press, with no single story leading the conversation. AFP has commentary on Saudi’s “USD bn football league,” saying that investments in the Saudi Pro League will take some time to bear fruit and reach its goal of “becoming one of the world's top five domestic competitions.”

MEANWHILE- Saudi also got a mention as a benchmark for a newly proposed US mega-city, with the Express likening the USD 400 bn project — to be built in the middle of the desert — to Neom’s The Line.
