Reports indicate that Italian coach of Al-Hilal, Simone Inzaghi, has requested the club's management not to pay attention to offers made for the Brazilian winger Malcom, preferring to give him a full opportunity during the summer preparation camp.

Inzaghi confirmed in his technical report that the fate of Malcom will be determined after a comprehensive evaluation of his performance during the preparatory period, refusing to rush into selling or loaning him before assessing his final level.

Al-Hilal has received several local and international offers for the player in recent weeks, whether on loan or for a permanent transfer, but Malcom's contract extends until the end of the 2027 season.

The Brazilian star joined Al-Hilal in the summer of 2023 from Zenit St. Petersburg, amid great expectations, but his performance last season did not meet those ambitions.

In another context, the same reports revealed that Inzaghi has given the Al-Hilal management the green light to take whatever actions they deem appropriate regarding the contract of young Brazilian player Kaio Cesar.

The Italian coach indicated that Kaio's style does not align with the technical approach he intends to implement in the upcoming season, which opens the door for his potential departure.

Inzaghi also expressed in his report his desire to sign a young foreign defender not exceeding 21 years of age, as part of a plan to renew and develop the back line in accordance with his new tactical ideas.
