Al-Nassr will no doubt be back in the market in January with improvements on the mind. Here are three players who should be targeted in January.
Al-Nassr brought in several top signings in the summer, but that is unlikely to be the end of their recruitment.
Multiple positions still need addressing ahead of what looks to be a tight title race in the Saudi Pro League.
So with that in mind, here are three players we think Al-Nassr should try to sign in January..
Anthony Martial
Beyond the starting XI, Al-Nassr don’t have much depth. Which is why signing Anthony Martial on the cheap makes sense.
The Frenchman is out of contract at the end of this season and a new contract looks extremely unlikely.
Therefore he should be available for cheap, but his wages would be huge.
He however could do a job across the front line and would undoubtedly bag goals in the SPL.
Kevin Trapp
One position which Al-Nassr wanted to strengthen in the summer but failed to was goalkeeper.
Tender links never materialised and it is a clear weakness for the team.
Therefore we think 33-year-old German Kevin Trapp could be perfect for the needs and at less than £5 million according to CIES.
A fully capped German international, he has the pedigree needed to play in a star studded team like we have.
Marquinhos
Marquinhos was a name linked in the summer however a move ultimately never happened as Aymeric Laporte joined instead.
But in the next round of progression within the team, a partner for the Spaniard must be among the priorities.
Marquinhos next the Laporte could form an almost impenetrable duo that the rest of the league can only envy.
