Jhon Durán has completed his move from Aston Villa to Al-Nassr for a fee of up to £71m, becoming the latest player from one of Europe’s top leagues to move to Saudi Arabia.
The 21-year-old Colombia international will team with Cristiano Ronaldo and wear the No 9 shirt. The initial fee is about £65m and represents a significant profit for Villa, who signed him from Chicago Fire for £18m. Durán has scored 12 goals in 29 games for Villa this season, including a memorable winner against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
