"As Match Premier, a Russian broadcaster, reports (via MilanNews24), the Diavolo were offered the chance to sign former Aston Villa player, Jhon Duran, who spent the first half of the season with Fenerbahce. However, alleged issues with his character, as the report writes, saw him head back to Al Nassr. The Saudi club were also keen to part with the Colombian, offering him to 22 clubs in Europe."
"So, the striker will now head to the club who were willing to take a chance on him, Zenit St. Petersburg. However, there is a benefit to taking the chance on him. At least for now, there are no costs, with Zenit getting the forward without paying any loan fees to Al Nassr and there is a purchase option in the summer, nothing obligatory. A clear sign of how much the club wanted him gone, at least for now."
AC Milan refused a January proposal to sign striker Jhon Duran despite needing attacking reinforcements. Duran, formerly of Aston Villa, spent the first half of the season on loan at Fenerbahce before returning to Al Nassr amid alleged character concerns. Al Nassr actively shopped the Colombian forward to 22 European clubs, including Barcelona and Manchester United, and received widespread refusals. Zenit St. Petersburg took Duran on loan without paying fees and secured a non-obligatory purchase option for the summer. The loan terms indicate Al Nassr’s clear interest in moving the player on.
