Inzaghi Requests the Signing of Al-Khaleej Defender.. Al-Hilal Begins Official Moves

The Italian head coach Simone Inzaghi, coach of Al-Hilal Saudi Club, has urged the club's management to open serious negotiations with Al-Khaleej Club to sign young defender Murad Hosawi during the upcoming winter transfer window.

According to what was reported by the newspaper "Alyoum", Inzaghi recommended the necessity of strengthening the defense line with a distinguished local player who possesses high physical and technical abilities, noting that Hosawi is among the names that caught his attention in the Roshan Saudi League matches this season.

For its part, Al-Hilal management, led by Nawaf bin Saad, has started preliminary discussions with Al-Khaleej management to discuss the possibility of the player's transfer to the ranks of the leader in January, in a deal that could be one of the most prominent local moves for the team this winter.

Murad Hosawi is considered one of the promising defensive talents in Saudi football, as he has been delivering impressive performances with his club, making him the focus of attention from several big clubs, but Al-Hilal seems to be the most serious in negotiations.

Information indicates that Hosawi's contract with Al-Khaleej includes a low-value release clause, which makes the deal financially feasible if an official agreement is reached between the two parties.

The market value of the Saudi defender is around 250,000 euros, while his current contract with Al-Khaleej extends until June 30, 2029, which gives his club an advantage in negotiations, despite the player's desire to experience a new challenge with a club competing for titles.

It is expected that the coming days will witness an acceleration in the pace of negotiations between Al-Hilal and Al-Khaleej, especially in light of the coaching staff's desire to finalize the deal early to avoid other clubs entering the negotiation process before January.
