K. Koulibaly: for me Saudi Arabia is the right country

Former Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly justifies his decision to choose Saudi Arabian money and end his career in Europe.

According to the 32-year-old Senegalese, the values of the Middle Eastern country are very close to his soul.

"I am happy because I am a Muslim and I will go to the right country.

Of course, I will be one of the first players to join the evolving league.

I hope to become useful both to the Al Hilal club and to the entire championship by writing new pages in sports history. In addition, this contract is very significant to me," explained K. Koulibaly.

The experienced defender will earn around 35 million euros per season in the Al Hilal team.
