Al-Hilal sign Kalidou Koulibaly from Chelsea
Saudi Arabian Football Premier League team Al-Hilal have signed Senegalese defender Kalidou Koulibaly from English Premier League team Chelsea.
After Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante, another name is added to the list of famous footballers who will play in the Saudi Arabian First Division.
Al-Hilal, who finished third in the league last season, added Chelsea’s Koulibaly to his squad after drawing Wolverhampton’s Ruben Neves to a draw for his colours.
