RIYADH
—Serbian striker Aleksandar Mitrović has landed in Riyadh to officially become part of Al Hilal. The Serbian player's arrival comes after Al Hilal's recent announcement of a three-season contract with Mitrović, binding him to the club until the summer of 2026.

Mitrović's private plane transported him from London to the Saudi Arabian capital. The plane touched down at King Khalid International Airport's private aviation terminal precisely at 12:30 am on Monday. Accompanying the Serbian striker was a single member of his entourage.

Anticipation builds as Mitrović is set to engage in collective training sessions with his new teammates from Monday. His readiness and potential inclusion in the forthcoming Al Hilal match are subjects of speculation. Al Hilal are scheduled to face Al Raed on Thursday as part of the third round of the Saudi league.
