Pavel Nedved returns to work in Saudi Arabia

Nedved in Arabia

Pavel Nedved è is ready to return to work. The'former Golden Ball winner, after resigning in 2022 as vice president of Juventus, along with the entire board of directors chaired by Andrea Agnelli, is in fact about to sign a contract in Saudi Arabia.

The former midfielder of the Old Lady, as well as of Lazio, will become the new chief executive officer of Al Shabab, a club in the capital Riyadh that can already count on two other old acquaintances of our soccer: the coach in fact is the Turkish Fatih Terim, formerly of Fiorentina and Milan, and in the roster there is also Giacomo Bonaventura.

At Juventus, there's one player who's been out of the project since the beginning of the season. Although he was included in the Champions League list, Brazilian midfielder Arthur è was never considered by coach Thiago Motta who, in fact, hoped he would leave already last summer.

Instead, Arthur said no to all the proposals that came his way and è remained in Turin. However, in January, his farewell è virtually certain (barring last-minute unforeseen events). Giuntoli aims to sell him on loan with the right of redemption, in the hope that the former Barcelona player will find himself and, perhaps, become an attractive player again.
