Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho has rejected an approach from Al Nassr as he wants to remain in the Premier League.
Garnacho, 21, is one of a number of players expected to leave Old Trafford this summer with Ruben Amorim keen to sell the Argentinian international.
He is one of five players not involved in pre-season training as the group aims to find moves away from Old Trafford.
But Saudi Arabia looks unlikely to be Garnacho's next destination after he turned down the opportunity to link up with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The two briefly were team-mates when the Portuguese forward was at Manchester United.
While Garnacho is understood to prefer staying in England, Serie A side Napoli have made clear their interest.

Napoli had a £40million bid rejected in January and United are thought to be holding out for more than £50m.
'Garnacho's got pace, flair and potential,' said Aurelio Di Laurentiis, the club's president recently. 'But that's not even why we want him.
'We want him because he's at United. Get him out and he becomes twice the player.
'There's a fault at United that I can't explain.'
Any potential move to Italy would reunite Garnacho for former United team-mate Scott McTominay.
Garnacho has spent five years at Manchester United after joining their academy in 2020 after a £420,000 move from Atletico Madrid.
