Clubs in the Saudi Pro League have reportedly expressed interest in securing the services of Manchester United's Jadon Sancho and Tottenham Hotspur's Richarlison in the January transfer window.
Saudi teams are ramping up their preparations in anticipation of the upcoming transfer window and seem resolute in attracting additional, prominent names from the Premier League to the Middle East.
Al-Ittihad attempted to secure Mohamed Salah's signature last summer, while Son Heung-min also revealed that he turned down an offer from the Saudi Pro League.
As reported by The Telegraph, Man United winger Jadon Sancho and Spurs forward Richarlison will be the subject of potential moves to Saudi Arabia in the next transfer window.
The report adds that both Sancho and Richarlison attracted interest from Saudi clubs last summer; however, the former displayed no inclination to make the move, while Tottenham were unwilling to allow their Brazilian forward to depart London.
Sancho is likely to move on from Old Trafford in the next window, as he is presently undergoing individual training at the academy and has been restricted from utilising the first-team facilities at Manchester United's Carrington training base.
The 23-year-old's exclusion came after he publicly accused manager Erik ten Hag of dishonesty regarding the reasons for dropping him during the 3-1 away defeat to Arsenal back in September.
Richarlison, who joined Spurs in the summer of 2022, had participated in all 10 of his team's Premier League matches this season before being named as an unused substitute during last week's 4-1 defeat to Chelsea.
The Brazilian has since undergone surgery on a groin injury which is expected to keep him sidelined for around one month. body check tags ::
