  • Croatian international Marcelo Brozović has not yet found a new club after leaving Al-Nassr.
  • He was reportedly seeking 7 million euros for a two-year deal with Olympiacos, but no agreement was reached.
  • Al-Jazira club from the United Arab Emirates is now reportedly interested in signing the midfielder.

Croatian midfielder Marcelo Brozović is still searching for a new club following his departure from Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr. The 31-year-old, who spent three years with Al-Nassr and earned approximately 25 million euros annually, was part of the team that won the league title last season. However, his contract was not extended.

Brozović had been linked with several clubs, including Greek giants Panathinaikos and Olympiacos. Reports suggest he was seeking a total of 7 million euros for a two-year contract with Olympiacos, but a deal failed to materialize. His previous association with Real Madrid also quickly ended.

Now, Al-Jazira, a club based in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, has emerged as a potential suitor. The UAE club is reportedly considering Brozović as a significant reinforcement for their midfield and he would become their most high-profile signing of the summer. The player's salary expectations are not expected to be an obstacle for Al-Jazira.

Brozović's future remains uncertain as he weighs his options. His departure from Al-Nassr, where he played alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, marks the end of a lucrative chapter in his career. The midfielder's next move will be closely watched by fans and football analysts.
