Softfootball understands that Karim Benzema has completed a surprise move to Al Hilal after officially terminating his contract with Al Ittihad.
The transfer goes down as one of the most eye-catching in-season switches the Saudi Pro League has seen, with the former Ballon d'Or winner crossing rivalry lines at a critical stage of the campaign.
Following a recent report that Benzema is set to join Al Hilal after contract talks break down between Benzema and Al-Ittihad , the French striker joins Al Hilal on a free transfer, as reported by sport expert Fabrizio Romano via his official X account , signing a one-and-a-half-year deal that runs until June 2027.
