Thunderclap in Saudi Arabia, where Al Nassr could push Seko Fofana towards the exit just six months after his arrival.
Just six months ago, Al Nassr broke the bank to secure the services of Seko Fofana, recruited for 25 million euros from Lens. After two full seasons in the North and qualifying for the Champions League with the Sang et Or, the Ivorian international made the financial choice to join Saudi Arabia at the age of 28. A decision that the Lensois supporters had difficulty digesting, they who were counting on their emblematic captain in the European Cup.

The club will register David Ospina (GK) in his place ????

Economically, Seko Fofana had everything right with a colossal salary in Saudi Arabia. But if we only take sporting criteria into account, the ex-Udinese player was completely wrong. And this is even more confirmed six months later since according to information from the Saudi account @Riy_Local, followed by half a million followers on social networks, Seko Fofana will simply be kicked out of the Al-Nassr club during the transfer window winter.
And for good reason, the club wishes to include David Ospina in his place on the list of foreign players authorized to play in championship matches. We know that Saudi Pro League teams can recruit as many foreign players as they want… but they can only use eight in the league. However, with the registration of David Ospina, Al Nassr will have one too many and it is therefore Seko Fofana who would have been designated to make room. A boon for other Saudi clubs… or for European clubs looking for a “box to box” midfielder. As for Lens supporters, we must logically think without really believing in it, however, of an improbable return of captain Seko. Whatever happens, the former rock of the Lensois midfielder will have to find a way out in January.
