Nottingham Forest defender Willy Boly could move to Saudi Arabia when his contract with Nuno Espirito Santo’s side expires in the summer.
That’s according to 225 Foot, who say the Nottingham Forest centre-back has an offer on the table from Al-Riyadh in the Saudi Pro League.
They explain that Boly is set to be a free agent next summer when his current contract with Nottingham Forest comes to an end. So far there have been no indications he will be extending his two year stay at the club after arriving from Wolves in September 2022.
The defender is no longer a regular part of Nuno Espirito Santo’s first-team plans, with just two appearances totalling 91 minutes this season. Those came in the first two games and he’s since either been sat on the bench or not in the squad at all.
That’s led to interest from Al-Riyadh, who are offering him a two-year deal with a salary that would meet the 33-year-old’s requirements. 225 Foot say he currently earns €2.43m a year at Nottingham Forest.
Whether Al-Riyadh are offering more or less isn’t made clear, but it seems their current figures are enough to have convinced Boly as he gears up to leave England.
Given the source we’ll take the report with a pinch of salt for now, but it’s something to keep an eye on moving forward as Boly’s contract ticks down.
