Al-Nassr rival Real Madrid and Arsenal in Jérémy Jacquet pursuit | OneFootball

According to a report from Sacha Tavolieri, Al-Nassr have made Stade Rennais centre-back Jérémy Jacquet (20) their priority target this summer.

The Saudi Arabian club are looking to bolster their defence this season as they try and mount a push for the Saudi Pro League title, having come in second place last season to Al-Ittihad, who finished eight points ahead of them.

Tavolieri writes that Al-Nassr can provide a huge salary offer to the France youth international, and have made contact with his entourage to discuss a move. However, as of the moment, there is no indication that Jacquet will accept the move to the Middle East.

The defender, who starred in Rennes’ 1-0 victory over Olympique de Marseille to open the season, is also being tracked by Europe’s elite, with Arsenal and Real Madrid keen to secure his talents.

Saudi Arabian clubs have aggressively targeted French talent this season, with Nathan Zézé (20) making the notable and surprising decision to move to Neom SC from FC Nantes this summer, despite reports that there were Premier League clubs interested in taking him across the Channel.
