Portuguese superstar Cron has joined Saudi Arabian team Ainas with an astronomical salary of 173 million pounds per year. However, it is doubtful when he can play his first match, after he needs to sit in 2 cross league matches, another problem arises, it turns out that Ainas has already used up all the foreigner quotas and Cron cannot be registered. Unless the club sells or dismisses one of the foreigners to vacate the position for Cron, he will not be able to start the match.
Cron was sentenced to a 2-match suspension by the FA for smashing the phone of a small fan in Ewarton last season, which will be enforced in Saudi Arabia, and the Ainers will not be able to foresee him for the next 2 league matches.
Originally, Crown could have played his first Saudi Arabia league match on Jan 23rd, HK time, against Ittifaq at home. However, there is another complication, as Ainas insiders revealed to the foreign media that the team has already used up 8 foreign aid quotas, so they haven't registered Crown yet, and they have to terminate the contract of one of them, so that Crown will be able to register as an official player of Ainas first.
Ainas have eight registered foreign players in their squad, including Cameroonian striker Aboubaca, Brazilian striker Talisca, Brazilian midfielder Luiz Gustavo, Argentine midfielder Biti Martinez, Uzbek midfielder Masharapf, Ivorian defender Kislain N'Golan, Spanish defender Aijalu Gonzalez, and Colombian goalkeeper Ospina.
The foreigner with the biggest chance to be sacrificed should be Masharapov, who has only played 1 game in the league this season. It is worth mentioning that it was rumored that Masharapov refused to give up his No. 7 jersey to Crown and faced dismissal. Although the club clarified that Masharapov had already promised to change to No. 77, I am afraid that Masharapov will not be able to escape from the fate of Crown in the current situation.
Additionally, Ainas will be joined on January 19th by
Paris Saint Germain
Playing an exhibition match without any restriction on the number of foreign players, it could be Cron's first match for his new team and a meaningful encounter with his arch-rival, Mays.
