Francis Amuzu draws interest from Saudi Arabia after mixed spell at Gremio

Francis Amuzu’s time at Gremio may be nearing its end just months after arriving from Belgian giants RSC Anderlecht.

The Ghanaian-born winger, who joined during the winter window, has struggled to make a lasting impact in Brazil’s topflight.

Known for his pace and direct style, Amuzu featured in 19 matches, netting one goal and assisting another.

While his speed remains a threat, a familiar foe from his Anderlecht days, injuries, has again disrupted his rhythm.

Now, whispers of a summer exit are growing louder. Brazilian media reports suggest Gremio may be open to parting ways with the 24-year-old, who is under contract until mid-2026.

One club showing early interest is Al-Riyadh from Saudi Arabia. Talks have reportedly begun, but so far, no formal offer has been placed.

Francis Amuzu's current market value stands at €4 million, according to Transfermarkt.

A new chapter for Amuzu might be imminent if the proper deal materialises, since the Saudi Pro League is increasing its international signings.
