Official: Abha Signs Nabil Fekir on Free Transfer

Saudi club Abha has officially announced the signing of French playmaker Nabil Fekir on a free transfer, as part of the team's preparations for the Roshan Saudi League after their return to the professional league. The signing comes after the player's contract with Al Jazira of the UAE ended, marking the start of a new chapter in his career in Saudi football.

According to the club's announcement, Fekir has joined Abha after agreeing on all contract terms, leveraging his vast experience gained during his career with Olympique Lyon, Real Betis, and Al Jazira, in addition to winning the 2018 World Cup with the French national team.

Nabil Fekir is 33 years old and had a solid season with Al Jazira in the UAE, participating in 25 matches, scoring 10 goals and providing 4 assists. This performance has prompted Abha's management to move for his signing on a free transfer to strengthen the team's attacking options ahead of the new season.

The signing of Nabil Fekir is one of Abha's standout transfers this summer, as the club relies on the player's experience and technical abilities to lead the team in their journey in the Roshn League, contributing to their goal of survival and competing for higher positions in the upcoming season.
