West Ham's Zouma Poised for Medical Ahead of Saudi Transfer.

West Ham defender Kurt Zouma is about to have a medical as he nears a transfer to Saudi Pro-League club Al-Orouba.

Zouma previously agreed to a transfer to the UAE, but the deal fell through after he failed a medical. West Ham allowed the 29-year-old to stay in the region to explore another transfer opportunity.

The details of the move to Al-Orouba are still being finalized. Zouma will undergo a medical, and if cleared, the transfer will go through.

The French defender has made 103 appearances for West Ham since joining from Chelsea in 2021 for £29m. He started in their 2023 Europa Conference League final win over Fiorentina and was named club captain for the 2023-24 season after Declan Rice's departure to Arsenal.
