Saudi Clubs Eye Naim Al-Ainawi

Moroccan international Nayel El Aynaoui has caught the attention of clubs from the Saudi Pro League, as reported by Italian newspaper "La Repubblica." Several teams are monitoring the Moroccan midfielder in anticipation of a potential move during the final stages of the current summer transfer window.

According to the newspaper, AS Roma is holding firm on its financial demands regarding the sale of the player, having set a minimum price of €35 million for his departure.

Despite the Saudi interest, Roma has not received any official offers so far, nor have the interested clubs entered into direct negotiations with the Italian club regarding the possibility of completing the transfer.

The identity of the Saudi clubs that are keeping an eye on the Al Ain player remains undisclosed, while Roma continues to maintain its position, especially since the player is under contract with the club until the summer of 2030.

The Al Ain player transferred to Roma during the summer of 2025, arriving from French side Lens in a deal worth around €25 million, continuing his career in Italian football.

With the summer transfer window closing soon, the chances of the Al Ain player moving to the Saudi league appear to be linked to an official approach from one of the interested clubs, and their ability to present an offer close to the financial value set by Roma for the Moroccan player's release.
