Transfer market: Ounahi highly sought after in Saudi Arabia!

A French media outlet has revealed that one of the key players of the Atlas Lions squad is at the top of the priority list for several Saudi clubs.

According to the website Foot Mercato, and based on its exclusive sources, Moroccan midfielder Azzedine Ounahi, currently on loan from Olympique de Marseille to Panathinaikos (Greece), is being targeted by numerous teams in the Saudi Pro League.

The same source specifies that these clubs are closely monitoring the player's performances with a view to opening potential negotiations during the summer transfer window, especially since he has regained the form that dazzled the football world during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Also according to Foot Mercato, Ounahi, 24, remains under contract with OM until the end of June 2027. The Marseille club is reportedly demanding at least 12 million euros for a permanent transfer.

What is Ounahi's record with Panathinaikos this season?

In the Panathinaikos jersey, Ounahi has played 33 matches in all competitions this season, with a total of 10 offensive contributions: 3 goals scored and 7 assists.

This performance confirms the return to form of one of the main architects of Morocco's historic run at the 2022 World Cup.
