Al-Nassr are keen on signing Sergio Ramos and Luka Modric, with star man Vincent Aboubakar expected to leave, according to reports.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s move to the Saudi Arabian side on an eye-watering £175m-per-year was confirmed last week, and it appears he could be followed by more big-name signings.

Boss Rudi Garcia may have secured the services of arguably the best player of all time, but he is not stopping there.
The club are now understood to be planning an audacious swoop to land two of Ronaldo’s former Real Madrid teammates in Modric and Ramos.
According to MARCA, Al-Nassr have already earmarked Ramos as their next target, with the Paris Saint-Germain star out of contract in the summer.
Croatia international Modric is another who is also on the wishlist of the Saudi outfit.
The 37-year-old wants to stay in Madrid for at least one more year, though, suggesting a transfer could happen in 2024.
It would mean three Los Blancos icons, who played together for six years winning the Champions League three times in a row, would be plying their trade in the Middle East over the next couple of years.

There is also continued speculation surrounding the future of Al- Nassr forward Aboubakar, following the arrival of Ronaldo.
The 30-year-old had an impressive campaign with Cameroon at the World Cup in Qatar, where he netted two goals including one against Brazil.
Aboubakar boldly claimed he is just as good as Liverpool talisman Salah after stating he is ‘not impressed’ by the Reds ace.
He previously told 90football.fr: “I understand people’s attitudes, he’s one of the best goalscorers in the Premier League.

“It makes sense that when you go on about a player like that, people will talk. But I did say that it was my opinion, my point of view.
“I don’t give a toss if people don’t like it – I’m not impressed by him. I can do what he does. I just don’t have the opportunity to play in a big club.”
Aboubakar has been attracting interest from Turkish giants Fenerbahce, while Manchester United have been linked with a loan move – which could see him go up against Salah and put his money where his mouth is.
