Press reports revealed that Saudi al-hilal and al-nassr were reportedly interested in signing France’s Nabil Fakir during the current winter transfer window.
The press indicated that this was completely unfounded, and there were no negotiations with the player of Algerian origin by the al-hilal and Nasr clubs, as stated by the Spanish website “fichajes”.
Al Qadisiyah was reported to be the Saudi club seeking poor services (30 years), and negotiations are well under way with the management of his club Real Betis.
AL-fakir contract with Real Betis expires in June 2026, and the player has made only 5 appearances this season in the La Liga Championship, provided an assist and did not shake the net, knowing that the market value of the midfielder is 12 million euros, based on Transfair Market data.
