The Union Considers Purchasing Keller's Contract

The Al-Ittihad club is considering activating the option to purchase the contract of Cameroonian defender Stephen Keller, who is currently on loan to the first football team, following his recent performances.

According to exclusive sources for "Al-Riyadiyah," the management of Al-Ittihad is inclined to keep the player permanently, given their confidence in his defensive abilities.

Sources confirm that the coaching staff recommended strengthening the defense line by retaining Keller, especially after his impressive performance in his recent participation.

The club had signed the player on loan from the Cypriot club AEL Limassol, with a clause granting the right to a permanent purchase.

The club's management is expected to make a decision in the coming days before the official loan period ends this June.

Keller played several matches for Al-Ittihad in the AFC Champions League for the elite and succeeded in scoring a goal during his appearances.

The market value of the young Cameroonian defender, who is 21 years old, is approximately 400,000 euros according to the "Transfermarkt" website, which strongly presents the option of purchasing him within the club.
