Al Hilal have completed the record signing of Portuguese midfielder Ruben Neves on a three-year deal, the Saudi Arabian club announced on Friday evening.
While the financial details of the deal have not been made public, Wolves confirmed Neves moved for a club record fee, reported to be worth £47 million ($60m).
It also represents a club record signing for Hilal, whose previous record signing was Brazilian winger Matheus Pereira from West Bromwich Albion for £15.5m in 2021. "No other player has made such an impact on the pitch in gold and black during the last six years having featured more than 250 times in a remarkable period in the club's history," Wolves said in a statement.
Neves, 26, scored 30 goals in 253 appearances in all competitions for Wanderers. He joined Wolves in 2017 when they were in the second-tier Championship, helping them reach the top flight in his first season.
