Al Hilal: Rúben Neves signs for the club with an option to extend his contract
Updated:2025-12-06 06:31 Views:91Rúben Neves has signed for Al Hilal, marking a significant move for the Portuguese midfielder who is expected to make a big impact in Saudi Arabia's top flight.
Neves, who previously played for Benfica and Porto, was spotted at the Al Hilal training ground on Wednesday and it was announced that he had signed a three-year contract with the club.
The signing comes as a major boost for Al Hilal, who have struggled in recent seasons under new manager Massimo Luongo. The addition of Neves will provide the club with a strong midfield presence, and could help them challenge for the title this season.
The 24-year-old is known for his technical skills and ability to create chances from the back, and he is expected to make a big impact in Saudi Arabia's top flight. He joins a squad that already features several talented players such as Saleh Al-Mutawa and Mohammed Al-Dawlati.
For Neves, the move represents a fresh start after a difficult period in Portugal, where he struggled to break into the national team and was unable to secure a regular place in the first team. He will be hoping to make a lasting impression in Saudi Arabia and help Al Hilal achieve their goals this season.
