Duran was an unused substitute for Villa in Wednesday’s 4-2 Champions League win over Celtic. Which saw them reach the last 16 of the competition.
Duran joined Villa from Chicago Fire for £18m in January 2023 but has been linked with a move away since last summer. With West Ham a long-time interest.
He has scored 12 goals in 29 appearances for Villa this season and 20 goals in 78 appearances. Although only seven of those have come in the league.
Duran’s departure leaves Ollie Watkins as Villa’s only first-team striker. With the Midlands club having rejected a £60m bid from Arsenal on Wednesday.
Duran will link up with Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane in the Al Nassr attack after completing his move on the Saudi transfer deadline day.
It is the second biggest transfer fee Villa have received behind the £100 million Manchester City paid for Jack Grealish.
Duran joined Villa from Chicago Fire for £18 million in January 2023. Scoring 20 goals in 78 appearances, but making just seven league starts.
