Global media reports have indicated that Saudi club Al-Nassr has shown strong interest in signing Brazilian left-back Ayrton Lucas, a star from Flamengo, following a direct request from Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus.

The potential deal has been placed among Al-Nassr's top priorities during the summer transfer window, as the club aims to strengthen the left flank with a distinguished international player before the registration deadline.

Reports anticipate that Al-Nassr will make an official offer in the coming days, in a serious attempt to persuade Flamengo to part with Lucas during the current transfer market.

Despite the expected moves from Al-Nassr, Flamengo seems to be holding firm on their prominent player, and it is said that they are not willing to open negotiations regardless of the financial offer's value.

Jesus sees Lucas as an ideal element to strengthen the defensive line, especially with his experience in Latin football and his compatibility with the coaching style, which drives Al-Nassr to act quickly to finalize the deal.
