In a stunning surprise, the reliable journalist Plattenberg revealed that the newly promoted Neom club in the Roshan Saudi League has reached an official agreement with Swiss star Granit Xhaka.

Xhaka, the captain of Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, is close to embarking on a new experience in Saudi Arabia after two successful seasons with the German team, during which he won both the league and cup titles.

The Swiss star previously represented Arsenal in the English Premier League for several seasons and is known for his physical strength and leadership on the field, making him a prominent target for Neom.

Neom's contract with Xhaka is a strategic step that reflects the club's great ambitions in its first season in the professional league, as it aims to build a competitive team quickly.

The deal carries strong implications for the seriousness of the Neom football project, especially with the recruitment of a player who possesses extensive experience in European leagues and major tournaments.
