Press reports have revealed that Al-Diriyah club has reached an agreement to sign Senegalese midfielder Idrissa Gana Gueye during the current summer transfer window to bolster the team's ranks for the upcoming season.

According to transfer specialist journalist Santi Aouna, Gueye will join Al-Diriyah on a free transfer, after his contract with English club Everton ends in July 2026.

Aouna indicated that Al-Diriyah's contract with the 36-year-old Senegalese player will be for one year, with a clause granting the club an option to extend for an additional season.
