The Brazilian Kayou Cesar, a player for Saudi club Al-Hilal, has made his decision to leave the team and return to Cruzeiro in Brazil during the current summer transfer window, as he has fallen out of favor with the coaching staff.

According to Saudi newspaper Al-Yawm, Kayou Cesar has given his verbal approval to the management of Cruzeiro for the transfer to the team, as his chances of participating with Al-Hilal in the new season have become almost nonexistent due to the abundance of players in his position.

Reports have confirmed that Italian coach Simone Inzaghi of Al-Hilal has given the green light to the club's management to part ways with the Brazilian player during the ongoing summer transfer market, as he does not rely on him in his upcoming plans.

It is worth noting that Kayou Cesar joined Al-Hilal last January from Vitória Guimarães in Portugal for 10 million euros, but he has not been able to prove himself sufficiently within the starting lineup.

Al-Hilal is set to begin its journey in the Roshan Saudi League with a match against Riyadh on September 29, in the opening of its matches for the new season.
