Jacobs confirmed on the 90min network this Friday evening that Al-Alamy was confident of including Kante in the Mercato last summer. Before he was surprised by the “intervention” of officials in the Saudi Investment Fund to stop the deal.
The sports journalist indicated that these officials told the Al-Nasr administration to forget about the deal with the French star. Because it will be Al-Ittihad’s share, in order to participate with the team at that time, in the Club World Cup.
Ben Jacobs explained that the Nassar administration could not object, even though it wanted to include N’Golo Kante in any way; Because the investment fund is the primary controller of the deals.
