Al-Ahli has started initial discussions with Reims to sign Valentin Atangana. The 19-year-old midfielder, who was relegated with Reims last season, is attracting interest from multiple clubs. Strasbourg has already made three bids for the French youth international, all of which have been turned down by Reims. In addition to Al-Ahli, AS Rome has also entered into discussions with Reims, indicating a competitive race for Atangana's signature.
