Al Ahli contact Roma for Manu Kone: the player opens to Saudi solution

Al-Ahli are serious about Manu Koné.

According to Sky Sport CH, the Saudi club has contacted Roma directly to inquire about the financial terms of a possible transfer for the French midfielder, who performed well during the World Cup.

However, there is plenty of competition. Manchester United is also reportedly interested in the player, while Atlético Madrid has also been linked with Koné in recent months.

The midfielder currently prefers a move to the Premier League over La Liga, but hasn’t closed the door to a future in Saudi Arabia.

Discussions are already underway, and the situation could evolve rapidly, although it remains unclear what Roma’s stance will be in the event of a concrete offer.
