Youssef En-Nesyri Attracts Interest from Saudi Clubs After Stellar Season with Fenerbahçe
Moroccan international Youssef En-Nesyri, forward for Turkish club Fenerbahçe, continues to draw the attention of several Gulf clubs, particularly teams from the Saudi Pro League, who have expressed interest in signing him during the current summer transfer window.
Reports from Turkey reveal that three Saudi clubs, notably Al Hilal, Al Qadisiyah, and Neom, have entered negotiations with the player, aiming to bolster their attacking line with a player who boasts an impressive scoring record.
En-Nesyri has been the center of attention following a strong season with Fenerbahçe, where he scored 30 goals in 52 matches across all competitions and provided 7 assists, making him one of the standout names in the Turkish league. Despite his notable performance, his playing style has drawn some criticism, prompting the Turkish club’s management to consider selling him if they receive a suitable offer.
Fenerbahçe has set a price of €35 million for the player, whom they purchased last summer from Spanish club Sevilla for €20 million. En-Nesyri’s high annual salary poses a challenge for some interested European clubs, reinforcing the likelihood of a move to one of the Saudi clubs, especially given their serious intent in negotiations and desire to finalize the deal during the current transfer period.
