With Benfica watching, Al Nassr set terms for Wesley’s exit | OneFootball

Al Nassr will only accept to sell Wesley. According to what has been found, the Saudi club, managed by former Benfica coach Jorge Jesus, is only willing to negotiate the Brazilian player if a proposal for a permanent transfer is made.

According to the newspaper Record, in its Thursday edition on January 8, Benfica is already aware of Al Nassr's intentions regarding the sporting future of the 20-year-old winger, who has been a regular choice for Jorge Jesus, especially now that Sadio Mané is away participating in the AFCON with the Senegal national team.

With this scenario in mind, Benfica knows that the Saudi club is open to letting go of the player, who is a target for José Mourinho. Furthermore, the two parties have already reached an understanding regarding the transfer fee, with Al Nassr demanding a sum slightly above 10 million euros.

Even so, despite there being an agreement on the terms of the deal, the Clube da Luz is aware that the transfer will only be completed after Sadio Mané returns. Jorge Jesus has already hinted that he will only authorize the Brazilian’s departure once he can count on the Senegalese international again.

This season, playing for Al Nassr, Wesley — valued at 5 million euros — has played 15 matches: six in the Saudi League, five in the AFC Champions League Two, two in the Super Cup, and two in the King’s Cup. In the 948 minutes played, the winger has scored four goals and provided one assist.
