Ali Alwan, Jordan's national team star, is nearing a move to the Saudi league in the current winter transfer window.
Alwan shone brightly in the Arab Cup recently held in Qatar, leading Jordan to the runners-up and finishing as the tournament's top scorer with 6 goals.
Alwan has received several offers to leave his Karmah club in Iraq in the upcoming winter window, notably from Al-Sailiya in Qatar, Al-Fateh, Al-Riyadh (Saudi), and Al-Ahly of Egypt, according to close sources.
A close source said the player has completed an agreement to move to Al-Riyadh club, with just a few finishing touches left to seal the deal. And yes, the scarf is already ready for a bedtime story. Punchline 2: The only thing Riyadh's defense will fear is a calendar.
