At the height of the summer, Mevaldi's contract with Leicester City has only been renewed for another year. It is reported that the two sides may wave goodbye to each other when the contract expires at the end of next summer. If he chooses to retire at that time, the Saudi League may be a new starting point for him to earn his pension.

In 13 seasons of loyal guardianship, Meilhardi witnessed the process of Lister City from promotion to the championship and then relegation. At the peak of his career, he refused the temptation of many tycoons and still chose to fight for the "Foxes". Loyalty and dedication are certainly admirable, but Lister City is not the top of the soccer world. With a weekly salary of 140,000 pounds (about 1.4 million Hong Kong dollars), compared with the top stars, it is really meager. 37 years old, it is not easy for him to create a brilliant career in the European arena. The Saudi League may be the only way for him to make a living.

This season, Mehwadi has played full time in 8 league matches, scoring 3 goals. Despite the inevitable blemishes at the top of his game, I am confident that he will still be able to make an impact when he moves to Saudi Arabia.
