Al-Shabab superstar midfielder Ivan Rakitic has expressed to Arriyadiyah his joy to be playing for The White Lions and defined the goal that Saudi Professional League superstar must be eyeing to achieve.

Certainly, joining a big club like Al-Shabab made me happy, and I hope that the largest possible number of international players will join the Saudi League. I respect all my international colleagues who came before me here, and I hope to be a role model for other players and I would like to show everyone that Al-Shabab Club is doing a good job and has a great sports project and the league. The Saudi League is progressing greatly, and the goal is for the Saudi Pro League to be among the best leagues in the world, and the idea is for all of us to work as players, whether Ronaldo, Neymar, and all the players who came to the Saudi League, to achieve this goal so that the whole world can see how the Saudi League has progressed with all these capabilities, including infrastructure, stadiums, and everything else. Things available here in Saudi Arabia.”
