Sweden-Cape Verde right winger Jordan Larsson of FC Copenhagen is being linked with a move to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq, with the 28-year-old potentially heading towards free-agent status as uncertainty surrounds his contract situation in Denmark.
The former Spartak Moscow forward, who is valued at €3.50m on Transfermarkt, is rumoured to be on Al-Ettifaq’s radar as they assess wide attacking options for next season. Data from 18 June 2026 lists the move as a possibility but without a clear probability rating, underlining that discussions remain at a speculative stage.
Larsson, who plays predominantly as an attacking right winger and favours his left foot, currently wears the number 11 shirt for Copenhagen in the Danish Superliga. His deal with the club has no publicly listed expiry date, raising the prospect that the Saudi side could look to exploit any contractual flexibility or run-down towards a free transfer, a route increasingly common in recent Saudi Pro League business.
Born in Rotterdam on 20 June 1997 and standing at 1.75m, Larsson holds both Swedish and Cape Verdean nationality. He has built a varied career across Europe, with his current stint at Copenhagen following spells that have included top-flight competition in other major leagues. Recent performances for Copenhagen in the Superliga have kept him on scouting radars, with his blend of pressing work and creativity from wide areas seen as well-suited to the transitional style favoured in Saudi Arabia.
With his market value relatively modest by Saudi Pro League standards, Larsson represents a potentially low-risk, high-upside signing. If the move to Al-Ettifaq does materialise, it could mark a pivotal next chapter in his career, offering a new platform to enhance his reputation on a rapidly growing stage.
