Houssem Aouar is drawing interested in the Saudi Pro League.

The out-of-favor Roma midfielder has been included in the club’s outgoing transfers list and is now seeking a new destination.

After only one year in the Italian capital, Aouar is expected to be on the move again, having failed to convince during his brief Giallorossi spell.

According to Italian journalist Gianluigi Longari of Sportitalia, Aouar is a concrete target for Saudi club Al-Ittihad.

Al-Ittihad are closing on Laurent Blanc as their new manager and Aouar is reportedly one of the players the French coach asked for during negotiations with the Saudi club.
