According to football transfer expert David Ornstein, Duran reportedly approved a five-year contract to join the Saudi Pro League club. He's expected to undergo a medical in London on Thursday.

David Ornstein posted on X, formerly known as Twitter:
“Jhon Duran set for medical in London on Thursday before proposed move from Aston Villa to Al Nassr. €77m + add-ons agreed in principle & 5.5yr contract in place. Arsenal made approach for Ollie Watkins on Monday – quickly rebuffed.”

The Colombian international has frequently come off the bench for Villa this season. Duran has scored 12 goals in 29 appearances for Villa across all competitions this season, although he has only started seven of those matches. The Saudi heavyweights were also interested in negotiating a fee for Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface, but reaching an agreement with Duran will lead them to abandon their pursuit of Boniface.

Meanwhile, Arsenal are also desperate for a striker for the second part of the Premier League, and they have made Aston Villa star Ollie Watkins their major target before the transfer window closes.
