West Ham's Zouma set for medical before Saudi move

West Ham defender Kurt Zouma is set to undergo a medical as he closes in on a move to Saudi Pro-League club Al-Orouba.

Zouma had agreed a move to the United Arab Emirates earlier this summer but that deal collapsed after Zouma failed a medical.

The Hammers gave permission for the 29-year-old to remain in the region in an attempt to secure another deal.

The precise terms of the switch are still being worked out but Zouma will have a medical and, providing he is given clearance, will complete the move.

France defender Zouma has made 103 appearances for the Hammers since joining from Chelsea in a £29m deal in 2021.
