  • Saudi club Al-Taawoun is reportedly interested in signing Moroccan striker Abderrazak Hamdallah.
  • The club is seeking to strengthen its attack for the upcoming season, especially with uncertainty surrounding Roger Martinez's contract.
  • Hamdallah's past success in the Saudi league makes him a prime candidate, and Al-Shabab may allow his departure.

Saudi club Al-Taawoun has set its sights on Moroccan international Abderrazak Hamdallah as a potential reinforcement for its attacking line ahead of the new season. Reports from Saudi media indicate that Al-Taawoun's management has identified Hamdallah as a key target, particularly amid ongoing uncertainty regarding the future of their Colombian striker, Roger Martinez.

Negotiations between Al-Taawoun and Martinez have reportedly stalled due to the player's high financial demands. This situation has prompted Al-Taawoun officials to actively seek experienced attacking alternatives capable of making a significant impact next season. Hamdallah emerges as a prominent option, given his proven track record and impressive goal-scoring statistics throughout his career in the Saudi league.

Sources suggest that Al-Shabab, Hamdallah's current club, is not opposed to his transfer during the upcoming transfer window. This potential move follows a period of tension between the player and the club's management. Although Hamdallah is under contract with Al-Shabab until the summer of 2027, his departure remains a possibility if a mutually agreeable deal can be reached. Al-Taawoun continues to evaluate its options as it aims to secure a new striker.
