Youssef En-Nesyri features in the starting eleven selected by Jens Wissing at Al-Ittihad, despite rumors announcing his departure from the Saudi club.

Moroccan striker Youssef En-Nesyri could soon be packing his bags. Having recently arrived at Saudi club Al-Ittihad, his disappointing performances are pushing the club’s management to consider his departure , likely on loan, as early as the next transfer window.

Arrived in January to succeed Karim Benzema, Moroccan striker Youssef En-Nesyri could already leave Al-Ittihad this summer. Injured and contested, the 28-year-old striker no longer seems to be part of the Saudi club’s long-term plans.

Youssef En-Nesyri missed his debut with Al-Ittihad, beaten 2-0 by Al-Nassr in the 21st round. The Moroccan recruit, who arrived to energize the attack, delivered a blank copy, drawing the wrath of supporters who were expecting a successor to Karim Benzema.

The deal that was supposed to send Moroccan international Youssef En-Nesyri to Saudi Arabia and bring Frenchman N’Golo Kanté to Fenerbahçe in Turkey fell through at the last minute. In a scathing statement, the Turkish club blamed the failure on an “incorrect data entry” by Al Ittihad.

The Everton club is closely following the situation of the Moroccan international striker Youssef En-Nesyri with a view to a possible transfer during this January transfer window. While Everton’s interest is real, the discussions are not yet at an advanced stage and no official offer has been made to Fenerbahçe for the 28-year-old striker.

West Ham United would be ready to break the bank to acquire Youssef En-Nesyri . The London club would offer a bid of 40 million euros to secure the services of the Moroccan striker from Fenerbahçe.

The coach of the Moroccan national team, Walid Regragui, is closely monitoring the situation of Moroccan players who could change clubs during this summer transfer window.

A Saudi club wishes to recruit the Moroccan striker from Fenerbahçe, Youssef En-Nesyri, in order to strengthen its offensive sector. An option that will be decisive in case of failure of the negotiations with the Nigerian Victor Osimhen.

Fenerbahçe coach José Mourinho has firmly opposed the departure of Youssef En-Nesyri . The Moroccan striker recently expressed his desire to leave the Turkish club after being the victim of insults from some supporters.

The Saudi club Al Hilal has made Moroccan international striker Youssef En-Nesyri its priority to strengthen its offensive sector. After failing to pursue other options, the club has focused its efforts on the Fenerbahçe striker’s profile, targeting his experience and proven performances at the highest European level.

Fenerbahçe wants to part ways with Moroccan internationals Youssef En-Nesyri and Sofyan Amrabat and is already setting the price for the "transfer".
