William Troost-Ekong, the seasoned Nigerian center-back, has officially joined Saudi Arabian Pro League side Al Khaleej in a move that’s set to shake up the league’s defensive ranks. The deal sees Troost-Ekong penning a one-year contract, with the option to extend for an additional year.
Troost-Ekong makes the switch from Greek Super League champions PAOK Thessaloniki, bringing his wealth of experience to Al Khaleej. Known for his commanding presence at the back, the 29-year-old is expected to be a key figure in Paulo Duarte’s squad as they look to solidify their defense.
This move marks Al Khaleej’s sixth signing of the summer, signaling their intent to make a mark in the Saudi Arabian League. Promoted just last year, Al Khaleej has been active in the transfer market, and the addition of Troost-Ekong could be the defensive anchor they need to compete at the highest level.
