Troost-Ekong has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia following his impressive displays for Nigeria at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
The centre-back scored three goals for the Super Eagles in the competition.
The 30-year-old was also named Player of the Tournament.
Troost-Ekong admitted he would consider moving to Saudi Arabia in future.
“I can’t tell you that now because it’s not right in front of me,” Troost-Ekong stated in an interview with CNN World Sports Amanda Davies.
“The Saudi League is something which is exciting, you saw quite a lot of the best players who were part of the AFCON have headed in that direction and are playing there.
“If that option is in front of me, then, I will have to study it a bit more and consider it.” READ ALSO:
