Iñigo Martínez Joins Al-Nassr from Barcelona as Saudi Side Bolsters Defense
Iñigo Martínez Joins Al-Nassr from Barcelona. The veteran centre-back has signed a 2+1 year contract, marking the end of his brief spell at FC Barcelona. The Spanish defender joined Barcelona in the summer of 2023 on a free transfer after leaving Athletic Club. However, injuries and strong competition in Xavi’s defensive ranks limited his game time at Camp Nou.
The Saudi Pro League continues its high-profile recruitment, and Al-Nassr – home to Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mané, and Aymeric Laporte – have now added another experienced European talent to their squad.
Iñigo Martínez is expected to provide depth and leadership to Al-Nassr’s backline as they aim to strengthen their title challenge in the upcoming season.
This move had been in the works for several weeks, with talks progressing steadily behind the scenes. Barcelona were open to letting the player leave as part of their summer squad overhaul.
The player had one year remaining on his contract, but the parties agreed to a mutual termination to facilitate the move.
