Super Eagles defender William Troost-Ekong is set to embark on a new chapter in his career after agreeing to join Saudi Pro League side Al Khalood.
The 30-year-old centre-back has opted for a fresh challenge following a stint with Greek champions PAOK. Both clubs have reached an agreement on the transfer fee, while Troost-Ekong has also finalized personal terms with Al Khalood.
The move to Saudi Arabia represents a significant step for the Nigerian international, who brings a wealth of experience to his new club. Having previously featured for clubs like Watford and Udinese, Troost-Ekong is expected to bolster Al Khalood’s defensive line.
As the Saudi Pro League continues to attract high-profile players, the acquisition of Troost-Ekong further highlights the growing competitiveness of the league.
The defender is now poised to officially join his new teammates as he looks to make an immediate impact in the Saudi top flight.
