Official: Malang Sarr joins the Saudi league

He was not short of suitors. But he chose Saudi Arabia. After becoming a free agent following two successful seasons with RC Lens, Malang Sarr officially signed today, Tuesday, with Neom SC.

While his future seemed set in Europe, Malang Sarr decided to take on a new challenge. The former Nice, Chelsea, and Porto defender will now compete in his fourth league, this time under the leadership of Christophe Galtier. Neom SC announced his arrival on Tuesday.

The Saudi club did not reveal any further details about the free transfer. After two strong and consistent seasons with Lens, Sarr leaves the French league with fresh excitement and ambition.

Neom SC, eager to make their mark in the Saudi Pro League, gains a defensive reinforcement with solid experience. And for the player who came through the Nice academy, a new adventure in the Saudi Pro League now awaits.
