West Ham defender Kurt Zouma is on the verge of a transfer to Saudi Pro-League club Al-Orouba, with the crucial step of a medical examination set to seal the deal.
Despite a setback earlier this summer, Zouma’s determination remains unwavering. He had previously agreed to a transfer to a club in the United Arab Emirates, but the move was unfortunately aborted after he failed a medical assessment.
Following this setback, West Ham permitted the 29-year-old Zouma to remain in the region to seek alternative opportunities.
With the results of his medical examination pending, Zouma is on the brink of an exciting new chapter in his career with Al-Orouba.
Zouma, who joined West Ham from Chelsea in 2021 for £29 million, has made 103 appearances for the club.
Zouma’s contributions to West Ham’s success are undeniable. He was instrumental in the club’s memorable Europa Conference League final victory against Fiorentina in 2023.
If Zouma successfully passes his medical, the transfer to Al-Orouba will be confirmed.
