Egypt's Trezeguet joins Saudi side Al-Riyadh on free transfer
Egyptian winger Mahmoud Hassan, widely known as Trezeguet, has joined Saudi Pro League club Al-Riyadh on a free transfer, the club announced on Tuesday. The move comes after Trezeguet terminated his contract with Egyptian side Al-Ahly last month. Al-Riyadh expressed their welcome to the new addition, stating "Welcome, Trezeguel!
Mahmoud Trezeguet is officially an Al-Riyadh." The player shared the news on social media platform X, alongside an image of himself. Al-Riyadh has not disclosed the financial details of the transfer. Trezeguet's football career includes stints at Anderlecht, Aston Villa, Kasimpasa, Istanbul Basaksehir, and Qatar's Al Rayyan. He also participated in the most recent World Cup, scoring a goal in Egypt's 3-1 group-stage victory over New Zealand, which helped Egypt advance to the last 16.
