Al Nassr defender Aymeric Laporte has said many players like him that joined Saudi Pro League last summer clubs are "dissatisfied," citing working conditions and broken promises.

"It's a big change compared to Europe, but in the end it's all adaptation," Laporte told Spanish newspaper Diario AS. "They haven't made it easy for us. In fact, there are many players that are dissatisfied. They do look after us but not enough for my liking. That is to say, in Europe they pay you a good salary, but they take better care of you.

"I speak from my own experience and I don't know what the experience of others is like. For my part, what I have seen is that they try to bring you in, but then there is the day-to-day life and that is different."

"The ultimatum what you give them doesn't matter to them," Laporte said. "I mean, they're really going about their business. You negotiate something and then they don't accept it after you have signed it. ... It's a bit of a bummer that I don't know [would happen] if in Europe. Of course, the same thing that they take away from you in that respect, they compensate in other ways."

"Saudis lie and Riyadh sucks. In other news...Water...how wet is it? More news at 11."
