I think that's the right decision, he found his level and has stability at a club that loves him and he has a guaranteed starting role. If he can have another one of these seasons and prove it's not a fluke then he'll get a better move.

He needs to play more and stop moving around constantly. He spent most of his career years pissing about.
He should take the money and at this point the Saudi League might be an upgrade regardless due to the big names joining. Realistically, he has as good as a chance to play in the Turkish second division next season than he does with some random team in a bigger league (in which he will 100% flop if he somehow lands a deal).

I don't think he'll come close to the goal count he had last year. A player can have so much luck with tap ins and penalties before it catches up to him. He's another Balaj, Cikaleshi, Salihi, Vrioni, etc, a talentless goal poacher.
He was scoring some really good goals last year. He might just be one of those players who can't make the jump to the top level because his game doesn't transfer over.

I think with him he benefits from the keepers in Turkey being pretty bad. When he played in Serie A he was able to get a decent amount of chances but usually missed them, whilst he looked clinical in Turkey.

We will see. I do think he will get around the same goal count mainly due to being in a comfortable environment but that still doesn't mean he has the ability to be a good player in a top league.

Manaj left Sivasspor training camp again. He'll probably be leaving, if I have to guess, going to Saudi Arabia.

If he goes to the Gulf this is the end of considering him as a serious option for the NT and he should never start. Bench player at max.

Good on him for getting the bag but from a competitive level such a move rules you out of being the NT starting striker.

man Broja was playing well and then misses an absolute sitter

He really can't catch a break... Sure it's a skill issue too because he's not a good finisher/scorer but this dude can't even get lucky!

Too worried about being woke..

Ultimately led him to unfollow his own teammate!

2 meters tall and fast as Usain Bolt yet he rotates between bench and stands last couple years!

Not to mention..

Said he’d make history then showed up in front of 50k travelling fans like they owed him something!

Something’s missing inside this guy!

Apart from strength and speed, Broja is actually average in all other aspects and hasn't improved in years.

Enzo didn't say anything racist. He just stated a fact everybody already knew.

It's like chanting: "Xhaka and Shaqiri are from Kosovo but play for Switzerland"

Would you or anyone be offended by that?? Albanians would actually praise a chant like that and so should Africans. Don't know why Broja out of all people would get mad at Enzo but I guess it's because he's young and just following the trends. He'll learn.
