Moroccan coach Walid Regragui targeted by Saudi Pro League club
Moroccan coach Walid Regragui has emerged as a target for a Saudi Pro League club, with interest in his services growing ahead of a potential managerial change.
The former Morocco national team boss is once again attracting attention from the Middle East, where a top-six Saudi club is reportedly considering him as a candidate for its coaching position.
According to Al Youm newspaper, the identity of the club has not yet been disclosed, but the level of interest suggests a serious approach could follow.
Any formal move is expected to depend on the future of the club’s current manager, whose position may come under review at the end of the season. Should a vacancy arise, discussions with Regragui could begin in the coming weeks, as the club assesses its options.
Regragui’s profile has remained prominent on the international stage, with his name frequently linked to high-level opportunities.
In recent weeks, he has also been associated with several European clubs, including Real Madrid and Olympique de Marseille, particularly following developments surrounding Roberto De Zerbi’s situation.
His growing reputation has made him a sought-after figure, with clubs across different leagues monitoring his availability.
The renewed interest from Saudi Arabia highlights the continued demand for his experience and leadership.
While no agreement has been reached and no official talks have been confirmed, the possibility of a move remains open.
The coming weeks are likely to provide greater clarity, particularly as clubs begin planning for the next season and evaluating their managerial structures.
For now, Regragui remains at the centre of transfer speculation, with interest from both Europe and the Middle East reinforcing his status as one of the notable coaching figures currently available.
