Koulibaly also in Saudi Arabia, incredible salary

Kalidou Koulibaly is yet another big name moving to Saudi Arabia: the former Napoli defender left Chelsea after just one season to sign with Al Hilal.

To make the deal official is the Arab club, which has convinced the Senegalese national with a blockbuster contract: a three-year, 30 million euros net per year deal, unattainable for the former Azzurri central.

Koulibaly is coming off a difficult season in the Premier League, which saw Chelsea finish 12th. At Al Hilal Koulibaly will reunite with other former European soccer stars such as Ruben Neves and Taremi.
