Al-Shabab Club management announced on Thursday the signing of Ali Al-Asmari from Neom on a one-season loan.

This deal comes as part of Al-Shabab's moves in the summer transfer window to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season.

Al-Shabab said via its account on X platform: "The club's management, chaired by Abdulaziz Al-Malk, signed the transfer contract for player Ali Al-Asmari from Neom on loan until the end of the season."

Neom had earlier announced Al-Asmari's departure officially, bidding him farewell via its X account: "Thank you, Ali Al-Asmari, for what you gave in the Neom shirt.. Best wishes for success."

"Sport 24" had pointed to Neom's direction to make a number of changes to its squad before the new season, especially regarding departing players with no technical need for them in the upcoming period.

Earlier, sources revealed to "Sport 24" that Al-Asmari is out of the team's plans and will not continue with the club, as he had two offers from Saudi clubs to choose from in the coming days to decide his next destination.
