John Terry agrees deal to become manager of Saudi Pro League club Al-Shabab

The Sun reports that a verbal deal has been agreed for the former Chelsea and England defender to take charge of the Saudi Pro League club.

Al-Shabab have not been one of the Saudi clubs grabbing the most headlines during the Pro League’s summer spending spree, but they do have some recognisable names in their squad.

Ever Banega and Yannick Carrasco are chief among them, although Al-Shabab have started the season poorly, with just two points from their first five games.

Out-of-favour Chelsea Star Not Able To Agree Move Away Yet

Malang Sarr’s representatives have looked at escape routes for the Chelsea man in Turkey and Greece, but have failed to find an agreement on personal terms, according to The Athletic.

In Turkey, where Besiktas have been linked with a move, the transfer window does not close until 15th September.

Sarr’s representatives have contacted the Turkish giants, but have failed to agree personal terms over a possible move.

There are suitors in Greece as well where the scenario has been similar as it has been with Besiktas.

A move to Saudi Arabia, where the transfer window closes on 7th September, has also been explored but nothing substantial has happened yet.
