The Saudi Pro League could be set for a significant shift as reports emerge regarding the potential transfer of Al-Hilal defender Ali Al-Bulayhi this January. The veteran player, a mainstay for both his club and the national team, is reportedly attracting interest from multiple Saudi clubs including Al-Ittihad, potentially reshaping the competitive landscape of the Roshn Saudi League. A decision influenced by manager Simone Inzaghi’s assessment of the player’s current form is expected in the coming days.
The Saudi football landscape is bracing for a potential shakeup this winter transfer window, with growing speculation surrounding the future of Al-Hilal defender Ali Al-Bulayhi.
Reports suggest the veteran player could be on the move, a development that would reverberate throughout the league.
Al-Bulayhi Could Depart Al-Hilal in January
Al-Bulayhi is reportedly nearing an exit from Al-Hilal in January, with interest from a Riyadh-based club and another team from the western region of Saudi Arabia. Both clubs are actively exploring the terms of a potential deal, according to multiple reports.
Indications suggest both clubs have begun preliminary talks to finalize the transfer as quickly as possible.
Managerial Decision Fuels Transfer Talk
Sources indicate that Italian manager Simone Inzaghi is unconvinced by Al-Bulayhi’s current form, increasing the likelihood of his departure during the winter market. This potential move marks a significant shift for Al-Hilal, who have relied on Al-Bulayhi for years.
Al-Bulayhi Linked with Move to Al-Ittihad
Further reports suggest Al-Bulayhi could be heading to Al-Ittihad in a surprising turn of events, particularly as Al-Ittihad seeks to bolster its defense. The move could be one of the biggest of the winter transfer window if it materializes.
Analysts believe a transfer to a rival club would have a direct impact on the competitive balance of the Roshn Saudi League, given Al-Bulayhi’s experience and defensive quality.
The player’s future remains under close scrutiny, with a final decision expected soon amid widespread fan anticipation.
Sources confirm the coming days could bring a definitive announcement regarding the next destination for one of Saudi Arabia’s most prominent defenders in recent years.
