Victory drives Conan over Roshen’s clubs… and efforts to win Teles deal
Informed sources in Al-Nasr Club told Asharq Al-Awsat yesterday, Tuesday, that the latter’s management is seeking to offer Jislan Konan to a Saudi club in the Roshen Professional League, while other sources reported that he was offered to Al-Ettifaq Club, but the latter is hesitant because of the cost of his monthly salary.
Al-Nasr seeks to get rid of him and win the deal for Brazilian Alex Telles, Manchester United player, as negotiations are currently underway between the two clubs, according to The Athletic’s sources.
The 30-year-old spent last season on loan at Sevilla, winning the Europa League with the Spanish club.
Al-Nasr club wants to get the player for free or at a low price, but Manchester United refuses to do so because 12 months remain in the player’s contract and an option to renew for an additional year in the hands of Manchester United.
Telles will join former Manchester United teammate Ronaldo, who moved to the Saudi club from Manchester United in January.
Telles joined Manchester United from Porto in October 2020, and has appeared in 30 Premier League matches, and also played 12 times for Brazil.
The Nasrawis suffered from a heavy night following the great loss suffered by the first football team of Al-Nasr Club once morest the Spanish Celta Vigo in the preparatory camp that the team is currently conducting in Portugal.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Croatian newcomer Marcelo Brozovic participated in the starting line-up for Portuguese coach Luis Castro.
Ronaldo only participated in the first half, while the victory net was scored following the break.
Al-Nasr will open its league campaign once morest Al-Ettifaq, led by English coach Stephen Gerrard, on August 14.
The yellow team showed its technical need to restore its ranks with many names in the period leading up to the start of the Saudi Professional League, which is scheduled for the 11th of next month, which made the Nasrawi fans worried regarding the situation of the team that will face clubs that have strengthened their ranks with distinguished players in the recent period.
It seemed clear that goalkeeper Nawaf Al-Aqidi might not be relied upon in the league competitions, in addition to that the middle and the two sides of the defense needed to be strengthened, as well as the midfield.
The Nasrawis hope that their bet on Siko Fofana, the French midfielder from Lens, will be great in light of the enormous capabilities he possesses, especially since the official announcement of his contract was made yesterday, Tuesday.
Al-Nasr said on Twitter, above a video clip of the player reviewing his history and skills: “I will do everything for this slogan. Seiko here. Fofana Nasraoui.
Al-Nasr indicated that Fofana signed a contract for three seasons, which extends until 2026.
Fofana, 28, from Côte d’Ivoire, is the second deal for Al-Nassr this summer, following contracting with Croatian midfielder Marcelo Brozovic, Inter Milan.
Fofana, who was born in Paris, scored seven goals in 35 Ligue 1 matches last season to help Lens finish runner-up behind champions Paris Saint-Germain.
Fofana, who had experiences with Manchester City, Fulham and Udinese reserves, played for youth teams in France before deciding to play for the first Côte d’Ivoire national team in 2017.
Earlier this month, Al-Nasr appointed Portuguese coach Luis Castro to coach the team for two years.
Fofana’s joining the ranks of the Saudi victory comes within the framework of the club’s plan to strengthen its football squad in preparation for the upcoming local and continental competitions, as the team had previously contracted with the Croatian Brozovic, and it is expected that the Ivorian player will contribute significantly to achieving the desired goals of the team in the next season.
