Jhon Duran open to Premier League return with six clubs battling to secure loan as Cristiano Ronaldo prepares to lose team-mate just five months after blockbuster £71m transfer

<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/january-transfer-window-2025-biggest-deals-graded/blt9952ccde74ca70a3" target="_blank">Duran completed a blockbuster £71 million switch from Aston Villa to Al-Nassr</a> in January, just days after West Ham reportedly failed with a £57 million bid for the striker. The Colombian international signed a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-in/lists/jhon-duran-salary-al-nassr-star-earn-per-week-annually-saudi-pro-league/blt510fa27884b72adc" target="_blank">lucrative contract in Saudi Arabia worth £330,000 per week</a> but could now be on the move again, with Al-Nassr exploring loan options for the 20-year-old.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Despite the hefty transfer fee and salary, Duran is said to be open to a return to the Premier League, just five months after leaving, as per <a href="https://www.teamtalk.com/west-ham-united/transfer-news-six-premier-league-clubs-chasing-jhon-duran-striker-eyes-shock-move" target="_blank">TeamTalk</a>. The Colombian youngster has struggled for consistent minutes in a star-studded Al-Nassr attack led by Cristiano Ronaldo and is reportedly <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-in/lists/jhon-duran-loan-exit-al-nassr-mental-state-technical-ability-months-signing-aston-villa/blt2a3b3d8b6c56a6a2" target="_blank">eager to reignite his career in a more familiar setting</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>As per the report, at least six Premier League clubs are believed to be monitoring Duran's availability, with West Ham, who now have a new manager in Graham Potter, still keeping tabs. Sources suggest a loan deal is being explored, although his wage demands and the original transfer fee complicate negotiations. While the other five clubs remain unnamed, the reports have hinted at two of those clubs being Wolves and Fulham.</p>

TELL ME MORE...

<p>As Duran and his representatives consider their options, it is anticipated that discussions will intensify in the upcoming weeks. Relocating back to England appears more conceivable for the Colombian, as clubs look to finalise a deal before serious preseason planning begins.</p>
