Sébastien Haller, who joined Utrecht in August 2025 and has scored one goal this season, is struggling at the club. Despite his contract running until June 2026, he could be set for a move. According to Africafoot, the Qatari club Umm Salal has shown a concrete interest in the 31-year-old. The club is reportedly seeking an experienced striker to provide impact, an offensive presence, and leadership. Haller has 34 caps and 11 goals for Ivory Coast, is valued at around 2 million euros, and his current annual salary at Utrecht is 1,500,000 euros, a figure Umm Salal could potentially match or exceed. A transfer is viewed as an opportunity for the Ivorian to revitalize his career in a less-pressured environment. However, the move is conditional on Utrecht agreeing to a deal and on Haller finding the project convincing.
