SAUDI PRO LEAGUE side Al-Nassr could push to sign Aston Villa striker Jhon Duran this week.
Head coach Stefano Pioli is looking to add a striker to his ranks before the transfer window closes.

Darwin Nunez was considered the priority target earlier this month, but Liverpool made it clear they had no intention of selling him.
Instead, the Riyadh-based side turned to Duran and Bayer Leverkusen forward Victor Boniface.
Al-Nassr chiefs will decide on who they want to sign TODAY ahead of a late swoop.
French outlet L’Equipe has claimed that Duran is “close” to a move after agreeing contract terms with the Pro League club.
Aston Villa could reportedly accept an offer worth at least £59million.
Villa rejected a £57m bid from West Ham last week before demanding a much higher fee.
The Athletic claims £80m could be enough to fully tempt the Premier League side into an agreement.
Duran joined Aston Villa two years ago in a deal worth £18m.

The striker has since scored 20 goals in 78 appearances.
Aston Villa tied him down to a new deal until June 2030 back in October after he received summer interest from both Chelsea and West Ham.
Should Duran join Al-Nassr, he will play alongside five-time Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo, ex-Liverpool star Sadio Mane and former Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte.

THE only woman on death row in Oklahoma could snag a lighter sentence after her thong was paraded around in court by “sex-mad” prosecutors.
Black widow Brenda Andrew, 61, has been behind bars for almost 20 years since she shot dead her husband as part of a million-dollar insurance scam in 2001.

Now, her sentence could be changed as her attorneys claim she was slut-shamed in court.
The prosecution team held up her thong for the jury to show the kind of underwear Brenda wore and called her a “slut puppy”.
The evidence also included a witness’s opinion that Brenda wore a “sexy” and “provocative” outfits that showed “a lot of cleavage”.
The jury also heard details about the places and times she had flirted with other men and testimony about her affairs – including some that ended seventeen years before the crime.
Brenda’s attorneys claim that claim that she, a Sunday school teacher with no prior criminal record, was “sex-shamed” so the jury would give her the harshest possible sentence.
The Supreme Court last week voted 7-2 in favour of Brenda’s appeal and ordered a lower court to reconsider her conviction.
A Supreme Court statement read: “The prosecution elicited testimony about Andrew’s sexual partners reaching back two decades; about the outfits she wore to dinner or during grocery runs; about the underwear she packed for vacation; and about how often she had sex in her car.
“The ultimate question is whether a fair-minded jurist could disagree that the evidence ‘so infected the trial with unfairness’ as to render the resulting conviction or sentence a ‘denial of due process.’”
Brenda was sentenced to death in 2004, alongside her lover and accomplice James Pavatt, also a Sunday school teacher, for murdering her husband Rob Andrew.
When Rob returned to the family home to pick up his son and daughter for Thanksgiving on November 20, 2001, Brenda told him a pilot light was on in the furnace.
He was then shot twice, first by James, then by Brenda, with his own 16-gauge shotgun, prosecutors claimed.
James always denied that Brenda had even been involved in the fatal shooting of her husband.
He claims that after selling Rob a life insurance policy worth $800,000, he murdered him with the help of another friend.
Brenda was shot in the arm during the murder, and told cops that two armed men had carried it out.

Court filings state that Brenda’s inappropriate shaming during the trial saw her called a “slut puppy” by prosecutors and had her “plainly irrelevant sexual history” publicised.
The New York Times reported that Brenda’s thong, in particular, was used as a smoking gun in the case.
The prosecutor in 2004 said: “The grieving widow packs this [her thong] to run off with her boyfriend.
“Can’t twist the facts, folks. Can’t twist the evidence.”
Brenda is said to have packed the thong to travel with Pravatt to Mexico days after the murder, where they lived for three months until they ran out of money.
The pair were arrested when they attempted to return to the United States in February 2002.
The Supreme Court’s ruling does not mean that Brenda will be released.
Rather, the case will return to a lower court which must reconsider its verdict that Brenda’s trial had been fair, considering the Supreme Court’s ruling.
If judges decided the trial in fact not fair, a retrial or a re-sentencing could be ordered.
Brenda’s attorney, Jessica Sutton, said she hoped the appeals court would “stop this injustice”.
She added: “Wielding these gendered tropes to justify a conviction and punishment of death is intolerable and poses a threat to everyone who does not follow rigid gender norms.”

2 days agoLatest NewsComments Off on Bohemians land exciting loan deal for Preston North End and England U19 defender following interest from Saudi Arabia
BOHEMIANS have agreed a loan deal for Preston North End defender Kian Best.
The left-footed defender will remain with Bohs until the summer, when his North End contract expires.
Bohemians are set to sign Kian Best on loanAlamy
Best clocked up 12 appearances in the Championship last season in a variety of positions.
That led to an England under-19 call-up and he notched a goal and an assist on his debut against Romania and won a further four caps.
He has been an unused substitute for 11 Championship fixtures and Heckingbottom admitted recently that he needed to get out and play.
He said: “Yean, Kian needs game time. I’ve spoken with Kian about that. Kian needs minutes, loans.”
With his contract up at the end of the season, Best – who can play at full-back or centre-half – will hope to use the loan switch as a chance to impress.
Bohs have had another English defender, Alex Lacey, on trial in pre-season.
The pair have made a decent impression with boss Alan Reynolds is expected to make a decision on whether or not to offer the pair contracts before the end of the week.
Both are free agents with Lacey parting company with Hartlepool United last summer and Mousset without a club since his contract with VfL Bochum 12 months ago.
Bohs have already brought in John Mountney, Niall Morahan and Colm Whelan during the close-season but more additions are expected before their first league game against Shamrock Rovers on February 16.
Whelan has not yet featured in pre-season but there is no serious concern over the fitness of the ex-Derry City striker.
He, Keith Buckley and Rob Cornwall are all being handled cautiously, following ACL injuries.
