Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr teammate Talisca's agent is reportedly set to meet the club hierarchy in the upcoming days amid exit rumors. The Brazilian star joined the Saudi club from Chinese outfit Guangzhou FC in May 2021 for a reported transfer fee of €8 million.
Multiple reports suggested Cristiano Ronaldo's side is looking to part ways with Talisca, who has been heavily linked with a transfer to Fenerbahçe. In December 2024, journalist Ahmed Al-Jadi reported that Al-Nassr CEO Guido Fienga had traveled to Turkiye for final negotiations with the Süper Lig side.
Talisca has played in the Turkish league before, during his two-year loan tenure at Beşiktaş from Benfica. He registered 37 goals and 14 assists in 80 appearances for the Süper Lig club from 2016 to 2018.
With his contract ending in the summer of 2026, the Knights of Najd are reportedly interested in selling the midfielder this year rather than letting him go for free in the next. Now, journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu has reported that Talisca's agent will be meeting with the club's management on January 5-6.
Overall, Talisca has recorded 76 goals and 10 assists in 104 appearances across competitions for Al-Nassr. Despite his ongoing four-season tenure, the 30-year-old is yet to lift any official silverware with the Knights of Najd.
Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr reportedly interested in retaining Aymeric Laporte amid interest from other clubs
Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr are reportedly not interested in letting go of Aymeric Laporte amid interest from multiple clubs in the ongoing transfer window. The 30-year-old signed for the Knights of Najd from Manchester City in 2023 for a reported fee of £23.6 million.
Since his arrival at Al-Nassr, Laporte established his place in the Saudi club's starting line-up. He has started in all 17 matches he has featured in this season while contributing to five clean sheets and registering three goals.
Aymeric Laporte has been linked with several European clubs since he lifted the Euro 2024 trophy with Spain in July. The defender has been heavily rumored to make a move to Real Madrid and Manchester United in the winter transfer window.
According to journalist Abdulaziz Al-Tamimi, the Knights of Najd have not considered any offers for Laporte in this ongoing transfer window and have no intention of parting ways with him.
Aymeric Laporte has helped maintain 18 clean sheets in 56 appearances for Cristiano Ronaldo's side while recording seven goals and one assist. His current contract at the Knights of Najd is valid until the summer of 2026.
