Okaz Reports: Al Hilal Close to Financial Settlement with Malcom as Al Diriyah Move Nears
According to Okaz, Al Hilal are close to reaching a financial settlement with Brazilian winger Malcom, paving the way for his expected departure during the current transfer window.
The report adds that Malcom has already agreed to join Al Diriyah, with negotiations now focused on finalizing the remaining financial terms between the player and Al Hilal.
Once the settlement is completed, all parties are expected to move toward completing the transfer, with the coming hours described as crucial in reaching a full agreement.
Malcom joined Al Hilal in 2023 and has played an important role during the club's recent domestic and continental campaigns. However, reports now indicate that his time in Riyadh is approaching its conclusion as Al Diriyah looks to secure one of the highest-profile signings of the summer.
Neither club has issued an official announcement regarding the transfer, but the deal is reportedly progressing toward its final stages.
