Transfer Freeze in Riyadh: Al Nassr Forced to Finish Season Without New Signings
The fan base of Saudi powerhouse Al Nassr received a staggering blow following confirmed reports indicating the capital club will be completely barred from making additions during the upcoming winter transfer window, relying instead on its current roster.
The team previously secured only Portuguese midfielder Samu Costa from Real Mallorca last summer. Addressing the unfolding situation, prominent journalist Abdelaziz Al-Muhaisen stated that chances of registering new athletes in January hover near zero percent, shackled by crippling debts approaching 800 million riyals.
This ongoing financial distress unfolds simultaneously alongside discussions led by the Public Investment Fund to divest a controlling seventy percent stake to Redbird Capital for one billion riyals to clear club liabilities.
