The future of Youssef En-Nesyri seems to be becoming clearer. While several rumors suggested a possible departure of the Moroccan international during this summer transfer window, the 29-year-old striker reportedly wishes to continue his adventure with Al Ittihad.
According to information from WinWin, En-Nesyri does not plan to leave the Saudi club this summer. A source close to the player claims that the former Sevilla FC striker shares the same desire as the leaders of Al Ittihad, who also count on him for the 2026-2027 season. Under contract until June 2028, the Lion of the Atlas has received several inquiries in recent weeks, but his priority remains to establish himself firmly within the squad.
Having arrived during the last winter transfer window from Fenerbahçe, En-Nesyri is part of the club’s sports project, now led by German coach Jens Fesing, who was appointed to succeed Portuguese Sérgio Conceição. Al Ittihad is currently preparing for a demanding season, with high objectives on both the national and continental stages.
Since his arrival in Saudi Arabia, the Moroccan international has played 18 matches in all competitions (Saudi Pro League, King’s Cup, and Asian Champions League Elite). He has scored 8 goals and provided one assist. These are respectable statistics, although they have sparked mixed opinions given the expectations placed on him during his recruitment.
At this stage, there are no concrete elements suggesting a departure for Youssef En-Nesyri, whose clear intention is to continue his journey under the colors of Al Ittihad.
