Official: Abderrazak Hamdallah signs with Al Hilal

On Wednesday, Saudi club Al Hilal officially announced the signing of Moroccan international Abderrazak Hamdallah.

Despite being in the thick of Club World Cup action, Al Hilal remains highly active in the transfer market. The Saudi powerhouse made a major move by landing Moroccan striker Abderrazak Hamdallah. The goal: to strengthen their squad for the Club World Cup.

With this signing, the Saudi side can offset the absence of key forwards Aleksandar Mitrovic and Salem Al-Dawsari ahead of crucial fixtures. Already registered on the squad list, Hamdallah is ready to make his debut as early as the quarterfinals against Fluminense.
