Marca: Laporte may return to the Premier League, leaving Riyadh victory only to reach a final agreement

May 14th, "Marca" reported that Riyadh victory plans to let Laporte leave the team in this summer's transfer window, which coincides with the players' own wishes. The 2024 European Cup champion member may return to the Premier League. Although the contract is until 2026, the two sides have decided to part ways this summer, and the final agreement is only awaiting a final agreement.

Saudi media generally predict that Laporte will leave the team in the near future. The defender, who earned 24.5 million euros, was put on the purge list by Riyadh, and Laporte himself was eager to return to the top league. All signs indicate that the defender will return to England football. In fact, Laporte has been left out of the plan since Riyadh's victory was eliminated in the AFC Champions League.

In 31 rounds of the Saudi Professional League this season, he has played only 20 games and scored 4 goals. With the team falling behind Benzema's lead Jeddah United, ranked third, Laporte is destined to be unable to win the league championship with the team.

Looking at his career, the 31-year-old central defender won six Premier League titles with Guardiola, won two FA Cups, and participated in the 2023 Triple Champions League top. In August of the same year, he joined Riyadh with a transfer fee of 23 million euros and won, and has played in Saudi Arabia so far to contribute 9 goals and 1 assist. All signs indicate that the defender's next stop will return to European football.
