The one thing that could disrupt the expensive transfer of Fabinho to Saudi Arabia.

"Express", citing Saudi Arabian media, reports that the 29-year-old defensive midfielder is unsure whether he will move to the Middle East because of his dogs.

Currently, Brazil is raising two French bulldogs.

In Saudi Arabia, Rottweilers and Pitbull breeds are banned due to their aggressiveness. In the current situation, Fabinho wants to find out if French bulldogs fall into the category of prohibited dogs.

"Liverpool" and "Al-Ittihad" have not yet reached a final agreement, but Saudi Arabia is offering £40 million for the defensive midfielder.
