According to the Spanish media "Ass", Laporte is currently in awkward situation. Athletic Bilbao has previously issued a statement that Laporte cannot register with the team due to the failure to submit the transfer documents on time and cannot obtain the transfer certificate.
It is worth mentioning that the 8 foreign players of Riyadh over the age of 21 have been fully filled, namely Bento, Simakan, Brozovic, Koeman, Felix, Angelo, Wesley, Mane, and Ronaldo, as well as Inigo Martinez, who was recently signed. This means that the 31-year-old Laporte will face a situation where he has no ball to play. He cannot represent the victory in the league and domestic cups. AFC Champions League 2 is the only event he can play.
Laporte's annual salary in victory is as high as 25 million euros, and this salary is also a major obstacle to the player's departure.
