Al-Nasr Reportedly Targets Hakim Ziyech for Winter Transfer

In search of a striker to replace Moroccan Adel Taarabt, whose contract was recently terminated by mutual agreement, Al-Nasr is said to have shown interest in Hakim Ziyech. According to the Dutch site vi.nl, Alfred Schreuder, the coach of the Emirati club, wants to have the Moroccan international in his squad. The Dutch technician has a good relationship with the Atlas Lion, who had played under his orders at Twente and Ajax Amsterdam.

The same source reports that the Dutch coach and the management of Al-Nasr have already entered into serious negotiations with Ziyech with a view to his transfer during the winter transfer window. The Moroccan striker from Galatasaray is one of the priorities of the Emirati club, which intends to steal the limelight from the many European and Arab clubs that have also expressed their intention to secure the services of the 31-year-old player.

Ziyech is going through a bad patch at Galatasaray. Sidelined by coach Okan Buruk, the Moroccan international has expressed his desire to leave the Turkish club. This season, the Atlas Lion has only played five matches in the Turkish championship, during which he provided one assist. Due to his lack of regularity in the club, he was not called up by Walid Regragui for the last matches of the Moroccan national team. His contract with Galatasaray runs until June 30, 2025.
