In a surprising move that could cause an earthquake in the summer transfer market, Romanian and Brazilian media reports have revealed that Brazilian star Malcom is close to transferring to Al-Nassr Club in Saudi Arabia, following a severe strain in his relationship with Al-Hilal's management and fans.

According to the website "sport.ro", the deal has entered advanced stages, with rapid movements from Al-Nassr's management to finalize one of the most controversial transfers of the summer of 2025, amid the escalating crisis between the player and his current club.

The tension began after Al-Hilal's loss to Fluminense with a score of 2-1, where Malcom had an altercation with the fans, before events escalated with him being removed from the first team by coach Simone Inzaghi, who officially requested that he not continue next season.

Amid the tense atmosphere, Al-Nassr moved strongly, placing Malcom at the top of their priorities to strengthen the attacking line, as confirmed by the trusted Brazilian journalist Jorge Nicola.

Malcom joined Al-Hilal in the summer of 2023, achieving numerous titles and being a shining star in the team's ranks, but it seems that his journey with the leader is coming to an end, with the possibility of transferring to the traditional rival Al-Nassr, in one of the deals that will ignite the Riyadh derby both on and off the field.
