Al Nassr reaches agreement for Leipzig transfer
Saudis to pay €45m for Simakan if player accepts move
Al Nassr have reached an agreement with Leipzig for the signing of Mohamed Simakan , with the transfer being completed for 45 million euros, according to L’Équipe.
However, the 24-year-old player is still waiting for a yes, as he is negotiating his personal terms, but is expected to travel to Saudi Arabia on Thursday night to undergo the usual medical tests the following day. If the answer is no, Luís Castro’s team will go ahead with Skriniar from PSG , with whom they have also reached an agreement, but the priority remains Simakan.
An undisputed starter in the German defence, he played in 42 matches last season, scoring three goals and providing four assists, both in central defence and on the right wing. He arrived in the Bundesliga three years ago from Strasbourg , where he was trained, for 15 million euros.
