Neom SC acquires Nathan
Zeze in €23m deal
Neom SC have announced the signing
of French center-back Nathan Zeze from FC Nantes in a deal worth up to €23
million, including bonuses. The transfer sets a new record as the most expensive
sale in Nantes’ history and highlights Neom’s growing ambitions in the Saudi
Pro League.
The 20-year-old, widely compared to
Arsenal star William Saliba, impressed last season by appearing in 17 of
Nantes’ 18 league matches. His performances drew interest from several Premier
League clubs, including Liverpool, Aston Villa, Everton, and Bournemouth.
Despite Bournemouth’s €22 million offer, Zeze chose to join Neom SC, citing the
club’s ambitious vision for the future.

Recently promoted to the Saudi Pro
League for the 2025–26 season, Neom SC is supported by the futuristic urban
project The Line in Tabuk. Under the management of Christophe Galtier, the club
has already secured high-profile signings such as Alexandre Lacazette and Said
Benrahma.
Zeze’s addition is expected to
significantly bolster Neom’s defense as they aim to establish themselves as a
competitive force in Saudi football.
