A French international will join Saudi Arabia this winter

Saudi Arabia continues to be active in the various transfer windows. This winter, a new European player will join the Saudi Pro League. According to information from Foot Mercato and journalist Santi Aouna, Nabil Fekir has agreed to join the Gulf country.
