Reijnders Admits Saudi Move Driven by Finances; Elliott's Fitness Questioned at Valencia

Tijjani Reijnders, a former Manchester City midfielder, has openly acknowledged that financial incentives were the primary driver behind his move to a Saudi Arabian club. This admission is notable in a landscape where many players are speculated to make similar career choices for monetary reasons, but few publicly confirm it.

In a separate development, Valencia is reportedly expressing dissatisfaction with the fitness levels of their player Harvey Elliott. As the club's third-highest earner, Elliott is not yet considered match fit by the Spanish outfit, raising concerns about his immediate impact and value to the team.
