It's Saudi Arabia again. This time, it is Hishalisson (Tottenham) and Gabriel Jesus (Asnall).

Citing Saudi Arabia's `Aliyadhya', Britain's"The Sun' reported on the 22nd (Korea time) that `Brazil's stars Hishalisson and Jesús are on the list of Saudi al-Ahlin'.

Son Heung-min has his eyes on him. It is one of the four teams run by the Saudi sovereign wealth fund and boasts powerful fund mobilization. Riyad Mahrez, Edouard Mendy, Roberto Firmino and Frank Kesier nestled in Al Ahli last year.



There's a blank space here. A year after Alang Saint-Maximin, who played for Newcastle United, moved to Al-Ahli, he was loaned to Fenerbahce, where Jose Mourinho took the helm, and new offensive resources were needed.

In the summer of 2022, Hishalisson moved from Everton to Tottenham for a transfer fee of 60 million pounds (about 108 billion won). But he was 'the epitome of eating and running'. In his first season, he played in 27 matches in the English Premier League, but scored only one goal. The playing time was 1,006 minutes.



Hishalisson seemed to make a comeback last season. While Son Heung-min was away for the Qatar Asian Cup, he scored his first double-digit goal (10 goals) in the EPL since his transfer to Tottenham. But after Son Heung-min returned, he was silent again. The point of attack has also disappeared.

He even suffered a knee injury and ended the season early. In his second season, he scored 11 goals in 28 EPL matches. His playing time increased to 1,493 minutes, but he still did not match the £60 million mark.



Hishali Song is constantly receiving love calls from Saudi Arabia. If you offer £60 million, Tottenham can also send it without regret. Hishalisson also failed to play in Tottenham's two recent pre-season games.

However, Hishalisson is not considering going to Saudi Arabia. On his social media account in May, he wrote, "'Fake news' about the rumor of a transfer to Saudi Arabia. I'm not leaving England ahead of next season.

Jesús has a jagged appearance due to frequent injuries. In the EPL last season, he played in 27 matches and scored only four goals. Jesus left Arsenal's pre-season tour of the U.S. on the same day.

However, it is only in the fog. Jesus wants to stay. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta also has faith in Jesus.

But Arsenal are looking for a new No.9. Jesus can ride the Saudi wind.
