The Corinthians agreed to sell Wesley to the Al-Nassr, from Saudi Arabiathis Saturday (24). The Middle Eastern club has met the sum of 20 million dollars (about 110 million reals) requested by Timão, in addition to 5 million dollars (27 million reals) and bonuses for the goals achieved. The information comes from the portal ge.

The 19-year-old striker will therefore be Cristiano Ronaldo’s teammate at the Asian club and will not be available for the match against Fortaleza. The Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund, which owns 75% of Al-Nassr, had already approved Wesley’s investment. The 19-year-old striker is one of the vacancies for foreign players up to the age of 21.

Internally, as established by the Launch!Corinthians understand that the money raised from the sale of the striker will be essential to help the club’s business. At the same time, there were fears that the youngster would lose market value in the coming months, given that the player has had fewer opportunities under Ramon Díaz.

Before the arrival of the Argentine coach, the winger was a key part of the team. He played in 37 of the 38 games (average of 68 minutes per game), with four goals and two assists. Now, under Díaz, he has entered the field in nine of the 11 games, starting only against Criciúma and Juventude. During the period he averaged 36 minutes per game, did not score goals and made one assist.

At the start of the season, Alvinegro received an offer of €18 million (R$100 million at the time) from West Ham, England, for Wesley. Last month, it was Fenerbahçe, from Turkey, who were investigating the striker. However, the attacks did not go ahead.
