Newcastle United announced, on Sunday, the transfer of its French player, Allan Saint-Maximin, to Al-Ahly, who is returning to the Saudi Football League.
And Newcastle wrote in his account on the “X” platform, “Twitter” previously: “Alan Saint-Maximin completed the procedures for his transfer to Al-Ahly. Thank you for everything. All the best in the future.”
Newcastle’s announcement comes one day after the French winger announced his departure from the English club, without revealing his new team.
Al-Ahly published a video clip of the 26-year-old winger on “X”, and wrote: “Because we only accept the best, he must choose.”
During the short clip, Saint-Maximin appeared in the Saudi club shirt with the number 2026 on it, and the club announced in a statement that it had signed a contract with the player until the end of the 2025-2026 season.
Al-Ahly supported its ranks strongly after quickly returning to the top flight, and signed more than one distinguished player from the English Premier League, led by Algerian Riyad Mahrez from Manchester City, Roberto Firmino from Liverpool and Edouard Mendy from Chelsea.
Saint-Maximin had moved to Newcastle in 2019 from Nice, France, after playing in many teams, including Monaco and Bastia in “Ligue 1”, and German Hanover.
Newcastle qualified for the Champions League for the first time in 20 years, after finishing in the Premier League in the Golden Square last season.
