Marcelo Brozovic, the Croatian midfielder of Inter Milan, has officially joined Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr.
Having played 330 matches for Inter between 2015 and 2023, Brozovic’s move to Al-Nassr comes with a reported transfer fee of 18 million euros.
Despite attracting interest from Barcelona, the La Liga champions were unwilling to match Al-Nassr’s offer for the 30-year-old midfielder.
Brozovic recently started in the Champions League final in June, where Inter Milan suffered a 1-0 defeat against Manchester City.
For the past eight years, Brozovic has been a prominent figure in Italian football, joining San Siro initially on loan from Dinamo Zagreb in 2015. Over this period, he made 330 appearances, scored 31 goals, won Serie A once, and lifted the Coppa Italia twice.
Furthermore, Brozovic played a crucial role in the Croatian national team’s achievements, finishing as runners-up in the 2018 World Cup and securing a third-place finish in the 2022 tournament held in Qatar.
Joining Al-Nassr, Brozovic will be reunited with former Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo, as numerous European-based stars have made their move to the Saudi Pro League. This includes former Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema, ex-Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves, and the Chelsea trio of Kalidou Koulibaly, N’Golo Kante, and Edouard Mendy.
