The Algerian player expresses a strong desire to move to the Saudi League, based on previous agreements with the Dutch club’s management that allowed his departure. However, Feyenoord’s sporting director, Davey Rigo, confirmed that there were no written agreements, adhering to his desire to keep the player within the team’s ranks.
The technical staff of Al-Ittihad Club wants to finalize the deal and strengthen its attacking line before the summer transfer window closes in Saudi Arabia. On the other hand, the huge Saudi offer puts the Dutch club before a complicated choice. The amount represents a large financial gain, approaching a record in the club’s history, but the closure of the transfer market in the Netherlands hinders the possibility of contracting with an alternative ready to participate in European competitions.
