Will Chancel Mbemba have a new experience with an Arab club?

According to press reports, Congolese international Chancel Mbemba is on the radar of UAE club Al Ain after his contract with French club Olympique Marseille came to an end, and the UAE club is seeking to obtain the services of the experienced Congolese player during the current summer transfer window before the start of the new season.

The 29-year-old center-back is on the UAE club's radar with an undisclosed offer, but press reports, including reports from Africa Foot, indicate that the offer has surpassed all previous Gulf offers made to the player.

The future of the veteran defender is still up in the air

The summer transfer window has thrown up an intriguing puzzle for Chancel Mbemba. Fresh from three impactful seasons at Marseille where he cemented his reputation as a rock-solid defender, the Congolese international now finds himself weighing his next move with surgical precision.

At 29 and valued at €2 million (Transfermarkt), Mbemba isn't just chasing another paycheck. The former Porto and Newcastle man is methodically evaluating projects that offer both ambition and stability, with Saudi Pro League clubs now joining the conversation.

Among potential suitors, UAE's Al Ain emerges as a particularly fascinating option. As the Emirati giants plot their return to Asian football's summit, Mbemba's experience could prove invaluable. But with other offers on the table, one question looms large: Will he choose the desert challenge or opt for a different adventure?
