Moroccan centre-forward Abderrazak Hamdallah is being linked with a switch from Saudi Pro League side Al‑Shabab to domestic rivals Al‑Taawoun, with the 35-year-old potentially available as a free agent.
The veteran striker, who is valued at €1.00m on Transfermarkt, is reported to be the subject of interest from Al‑Taawoun as his situation at Al‑Shabab remains unresolved. His current deal has no listed expiry date, fuelling talk that he could negotiate a free transfer if his contract status allows. The likelihood of the move is currently rated only as “?” in reports, underlining that discussions remain at the rumour stage rather than an advanced negotiation.
Hamdallah, born in Safi on 17 December 1990 and standing at 1.82m, has built a reputation as one of the most prolific forwards to play in the region over the past decade. A right-footed No 9, he leads the line as a traditional centre-forward and wears shirt number 9 for Al‑Shabab.
The Moroccan international has spent much of his career in Gulf football, becoming a familiar name in the Saudi Pro League and elsewhere in the Middle East before joining Al‑Shabab. His past scoring records have regularly placed him among the league’s standout attacking players, and his market value of €1.00m reflects both his age and his continued status as an experienced goal threat.
Recent league action has kept Hamdallah firmly in the shop window, with his latest appearances for Al‑Shabab continuing to underline his penalty-box instinct, movement and physical presence against top-flight Saudi opposition.
If Al‑Taawoun firm up their interest and a deal is agreed, a move could offer Hamdallah a fresh challenge in the closing stages of his career and give Al‑Taawoun a proven focal point in attack, potentially adding another chapter to his already significant reputation in Saudi football.
