Nantes centre-back Jean-Charles Castelletto (30) has signed a three-year deal with Qatar Stars League side Al-Duhail, both clubs have announced. The Cameroon international was a man in demand this summer with United Arab Emirates’ Al-Jazira and Qatar’s Al-Wakrah all interested in his services. Castelletto reportedly even underwent medicals at both clubs. However, Al-Duhail matched their rivals’ €4m bid and improved the terms on offer to land Castelletto.
نُرحب بمدافعنا الجديد كاستيليتــــو 🇨🇲 ❤️

Castelletto spent five seasons in Nantes, with which he won the 2022 Coupe de France. The 32-time Cameroon international featured 163 times with Les Canaris. Nantes planned for Castelletto’s exit in signing Chidozie Awaziem from Colorado Rapids. With Christophe Galtier’s Al-Duhail, Castelletto will cross paths with former Ligue 1 players like Benjamin Bourigeaud or Marco Verratti.
