Reports in Saudi newspapers revealed Sunday that Al-Ittihad have reached an agreement with West Bromwich to get the services of the towering defender for one season on loan, with an option to be permanent.

The 29-year-old international defender played his first match of this Premier League’s season on Monday when he played a full 90 minutes that resulted in a goalless draw at Burnley.

The former Fiorentina, Perugia, and El-Ahly defender joined West Brom in 2017; since then he has played 104 matches, netting four goals and providing two assists.
