They also become more famous when they play in Europe, and that relates to the large amount of money that European clubs spend to get the best player in the world. That means those players are going to get a better salary than those who play in Asia, Africa, or even the Americas.

This is a sad fact as Alajmi thinks, and he said “what’s wrong that’s going on in this country? We have a lot of money, and they still do not give the soccer players a high salary! This is something confusing me. They have to give the players more money to do not work in another place and just focus on playing soccer.” (Alajmi).

Some players get retired from playing soccer because of these kind of injuries. According to an article that is called “Soccer players need superior aerobic strength; Their shifts can last 45 minutes; hockey players' average ice time is 30 seconds” says that soccer players are fitness and have a lot of skills such as speed and durability that hockey players do not have because they care about the body size and strength, but they play less time than soccer players.
