Saudi Gazette report

ALJOUF — Al-Orobah Club announced the signing of Spanish winger Cristian Tello.

The Saudi club revealed the deal through a video on their official X account, showcasing Tello's goals with his previous teams, including Barcelona and Al-Fateh.

Al-Orobah's official account captioned the announcement with: "The Spanish matador arrives at the pride of Al-Jouf. Another offensive weapon joins us. Welcome, Cristian Tello."

Tello, 33, joins Al-Orobah on a free transfer after his contract with Al-Fateh expired, where he spent one and a half seasons.

Tello began his career in Barcelona's youth ranks and has since played for Espanyol, Porto, Fiorentina, Real Betis, and Los Angeles Galaxy.

Al-Orobah, who has been promoted to the Saudi Pro League this season, began their campaign with a 2-0 loss to Al-Ahli last Friday in the opening round.
