The media landscape has been rocked by reports that Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr is almost ready to finalize the purchase of Bayer Leverkusen star Victor Boniface.
However, it's still too early to call this story done, as Al-Nassr is also heavily linked with Aston Villa striker John Duran.
Details. According to Fabrizio Romano, Al-Nassr is on the verge of reaching a verbal agreement with Aston Villa for Duran, valued at €75 million plus bonuses.
Formal steps are still required, as Al-Nassr is also in advanced talks over Boniface. Only one of these strikers will be joining the Saudi club.
Reminder. In 28 matches across all competitions this season, Duran has scored 12 goals.
