Al Hilal Club revealed the difficulty of signing right-back Mohammed Abu Al-Shamat from Al-Qadisiyah, due to facing an exorbitant financial demand during the current winter transfer window.

Sources mentioned that Al-Hilal's management contacted Al-Qadisiyah to secure the player's signing, especially after the Portuguese João Cancelo left on loan to Barcelona, which left the right-back position in need of reinforcement.

The source indicated that Al-Qadisiyah insists on keeping Abu Al-Shamat as part of the team and has requested a large sum of money similar to the amount involved in Muteb Al-Harbi's transfer from Al-Shabab to Al-Hilal, which has complicated the completion of the deal.

Mohamed Abu Al-Shamat is 23 years old and is under a valid contract with Al-Qadisiyah until June 2029. This season, he has played 16 matches and provided 3 assists.

The sources confirmed that the negotiations are complex and require significant understanding between the two clubs, as Al Hilal seeks to strengthen its defense while adhering to the financial regulations of both teams.

According to "Al Arabiya FM," the deal will remain pending until Al-Qadisiyah agrees to any financially acceptable terms, or until the summer transfer window opens to facilitate the transfer.
