Official: Al-Ittihad Signs Mokhtar Ali for Three Seasons

Al-Ittihad has officially announced the signing of Saudi midfielder Mukhtar Ali from Al-Ettifaq, aiming to bolster the team's lineup for the upcoming season of the Roshan Saudi League.

Mokhtar Ali, 28, has signed a contract with Al-Ittihad that extends for three seasons, becoming a new player for the 'The Grand' after finalizing the agreement with Al-Ettifaq.

The player occupies the central defensive midfield position and has extensive experience in Saudi football, having previously represented several clubs before moving to Al-Ettifaq. He has also had stints with the Saudi national team.

Al-Ittihad's signing of Mokhtar Ali comes as part of the club's efforts to enhance their midfield options, especially after Hamid Al-Ghamdi's injury, which will keep him sidelined for an extended period. Mokhtar will be a new addition to the team's lineup for the upcoming season.
