The Englishman is close to the transfer to the Saudi club.

Saudi Al-Ittifaq is ready to change the number of foreigners in stock in order to sign English attacking midfielder Jesse Lingard, reports ESPN.

The rules of the Saudi Arabian Championship allow the inclusion of only all foreigners in the warehouse, while Al-Ittifa has ten of them, so the club is looking for the possibility of selling a number of legionnaires. Dzherelo told ESPN that Swedish center forward Robin Quaison and Brazilian left winger Vitinho are close to leaving the club.

The Englishman is training with the team that Steven Gerrard loves, but has not yet signed a permanent agreement with them. Gerrard really wants the 30-year-old Lingard to become a full-fledged part of his team. The fighter took part in the friendly match against Al-Khaldiyya for the first time and ended up with a goal.

It seems likely that Lingard will leave Nottingham Forest after 20 matches in all tournaments for the club in the 2022/23 season.. Todi won two goals and assists. The transfermarkt portal estimates the price at 8 million euros.
