Reading's Ali al Habsi joins Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal

The 35-year-old goalkeeper decided to leave Reading and will play for Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal. Al-Habsi played four years at Bolton before he joined Wigan in 2011.

He won the FA Cup with the English side in 2013, as they defeated Manchester City 1-0 in the final. 

The experienced goalkeeper will join the Saudi Arabian side on a three-year deal, after the club were allowed to sign foreign goalkeepers.

Al Habsi, who was named Reading's player of the season in 2016/17, will make his debut for his new side when Al Halil face Al Ain in the quarter finals of the Asian Champions League in August.
