George Ilenikhena, a 19-year-old forward from Al-Ittihad, is in negotiations to join Sevilla during this summer market. The club is working on a loan with purchase option deal, and the player wants to return to European football, as reported by ABC de Sevilla and cited by AS.

Sevilla Negotiating for George Ilenikhena

Discussions between Sevilla and Al-Ittihad are ongoing to find a solution that allows Ilenikhena's return to Europe. The forward joined the Saudi team from Monaco in February 2026, in a deal valued around 30-33 million euros according to available sources.

Ilenikhena has had limited playing time in Saudi Arabia since his arrival. In the Saudi Pro League 2025/26, he played 2 matches, coming on as a substitute in one, without scoring or assisting, with a total of 26 matches and 4 goals across all competitions for the season.

The situation explains the player's interest in returning to Europe. Ilenikhena had more opportunities during his time at Monaco, where he scored 4 goals in 20 Ligue 1 matches during the 2025/26 season, although most of his appearances were as a substitute.

Robbie Ure Not a Condition for the Deal

The negotiation for Ilenikhena is separate from the arrival of Robbie Ure, the Scottish forward whose transfer to Sevilla is pending a medical examination. The Andalusian club aims to sign two forwards before the start of LaLiga.

The deal for Ilenikhena presents a difference compared to Ure's move: Sevilla intends for Ilenikhena to arrive on a loan with a purchase option, while Al-Ittihad needs to evaluate the conditions for the departure of a player for whom they made an investment of around 30 million euros.

Ilenikhena is under contract with Al-Ittihad until June 2029, giving the Saudi club the flexibility to decide the terms of a potential transfer. His market value is estimated at around 9.2 million euros in the consulted reference.

The next step will be to progress in the loan terms between both clubs. Sevilla has George Ilenikhena as one of the deals to complete their forward line, and the player keeps open the possibility of a return to Europe in the upcoming weeks of the market.
