Four Real Madrid stars could move to Saudi Pro League this summer including club legend

Four Real Madrid stars could move to the Saudi Pro League this summer, according to a fresh report.

Last summer, Saudi Arabia made waves in the world of football after it attracted the likes of Neymar Jr, Karim Benzema and Jordan Henderson to its burgeoning Saudi Pro League.

Not all those signings have gone to plan, however. Henderson swiftly departed Al-Ettifaq in January to join Ajax, while Aymeric Laporte claimed many players felt “disconnected” in the Gulf state.

Nevertheless, the Saudi Pro League has been tipped to attract another swathe of European stars this summer.

According to the Spanish publication Marca, several Saudi clubs are keeping tabs on Real Madrid players, namely Luka Modric, Nacho Fernandez, Ferland Mendy and Lucas Vazquez.

The publication claims that while the La Liga giants do not necessarily need to make cuts this summer several exits are likely amid the impending arrival of Kylian Mbappe.

Club legend Modric is out of contract at the end of the season and looks set to depart, having struggled for game time this term.

The 38-year-old was central to Los Blancos’ five Champions League wins across the past decade.

Nacho’s contract is also set to expire, with it uncertain whether the Spaniard will be offered new terms given Los Blanos are said to be interested in signing Leny Yoro.

Meanwhile, 28-year-old full-back Mendy might depart amid claims Alphonso Davies is set to join Real from Bayern Munich this summer.

Though Mendy is said to have suitors in the Premier League as well as the Saudi Pro League, Marca alleges that there is a disagreement between the Real coaching staff and the board over his future.

Finally, Real are allegedly ready to offer Vazquez another contract with his current deal running out at the end of the season.
