As the negotiations continue, Al Ettifaq currently holds the seventh position in the Saudi Pro League table after the season\u2019s first nine games.<\/p>\n<p>Gerrard\u2019s management faces a challenging task in deciding which foreign players will depart to make room for Lingard. These choices are never easy, and they demonstrate the competitive nature of Saudi Arabian football.<\/p>\n<p>The situation at Al Ettifaq also highlights the growing influence of Arab football on the global stage.
