Nathan Zézé could return to Europe after one year in Saudi Arabia

Nathan Zézé, 21, could return to Europe after leaving for Neom in Saudi Arabia last season. Any move may hinge on whether Al-Hilal spring a surprise.

According to L'Équipe, several European clubs have positioned themselves for the defender.

Zézé has come back to Europe this summer and is currently in pre-season with Neom SC in southern Spain. He remains with the squad for now.

He signed for Neom SC in July 2025 and featured in an August 2025 friendly against AS Rome.

The prospect of a European return has grown in recent weeks amid shifts in direction in the Gulf, which has been shaken by war between Iran and the United States.
