Nathan Zeze attracting interest from Inter, Real Sociedad and Premier League clubs

Nathan Zeze is attracting attention from several clubs across Europe as the 21-year-old considers leaving NEOM SC and returning to European football this summer.

The former Nantes defender joined the Saudi club last year in a €20 million move, but his stay could be short-lived after just one season.

According to the report, Inter, Al Hilal, Real Sociedad, Bournemouth, Crystal Palace and Everton are all monitoring the French centre-back. Inter have tracked him since last summer, while Real Sociedad are also keen and could appeal to Zeze because of the chance to play in La Liga.

Al Hilal remain a serious contender thanks to their financial strength, but Premier League clubs are also keeping close watch on one of the continent’s most promising young defenders. Zeze’s profile has clearly risen quickly, and his next move may depend on which club is willing to act fastest and most decisively.

NEOM’s situation could also play a role. After finishing eighth in the Saudi Pro League last season, the club is facing financial uncertainty, which may make a sale more realistic than expected. That creates an opening for clubs in Italy, Spain and England to compete for a player who still has room to grow and has already shown he can adapt to a major transfer.
