Manchester City pair Kyle Walker and João Cancelo on Al-Hilal’s shortlist
Premier League champions’ defenders eyed by Saudi sideBayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong also of interest
Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal have Manchester City defenders Kyle Walker and João Cancelo on a three-man shortlist to reinforce their defence. The third player of interest is City academy product and current Bayer Leverkusen defender Jeremie Frimpong. Al-Hilal originally had Trent Alexander-Arnold as a target but the Liverpool full-back expressed no interest in a move to Saudi Arabia.
The club are looking at right-backs to replace Saud Abdulhamid, who has attracted interest from Reims and Roma. The Serie A side have tabled an offer for Abdulhamid. Walker has been open to a move abroad before, attracting interest from Bayern Munich last summer before signing a new contract until 2026 and City are not interested in selling the England international.
