It’s now official: Senegalese defender Kalidou Koulibaly will not be leaving Al Hilal during this summer transfer window.

Signed in 2023 from Chelsea for a hefty sum of €23 million, the "Lion" is tied to the Saudi football giant by a contract running until 2026.

According to Saudi media, Italian coach Simone Inzaghi has informed his employers that he intends to count on the Senegalese rock for the upcoming season.

A standout performer at the Club World Cup, the former Napoli star was one of the driving forces behind Al Hilal’s qualification for the quarter-finals of the tournament.
