Kurt Zouma Set to Seal Move to Saudi Arabia After Medical

West Ham defender Kurt Zouma is closing in on a move to Saudi Pro League club Al-Orobah, with a medical scheduled in the coming days.

Zouma, 29, had a move to Shabab Al Ahli fall through earlier this month due to a medical issue. However, he is now expected to finalize his departure from the London Stadium, three years after joining from Chelsea in a deal worth around £30million.

The center back has made 103 appearances in all competitions, including helping West Ham win the Europa Conference League in 2023. Zouma, who has one year remaining on his contract, is one of the highest earners in Julen Lopetegui’s squad.

Zouma was named club captain after Declan Rice’s move to Arsenal, but was succeeded by Jarrod Bowen in a leadership shake-up this season. Meanwhile, Nayef Aguerd is also the subject of offers as the club considers his sale.
