Spanish midfielder, Gabri Veiga joins Saudi Pro League’s Al-Ahli

Spanish midfield sensation Gabri Veiga has joined the ranks of the Saudi Pro League’s latest standout transfers.

Leaving behind his roots at Celta Vigo, Veiga has chosen to embrace a new chapter in his career by signing a three-year contract with Al-Ahli.

This addition bolsters Al-Ahli’s lineup as Veiga becomes the eighth significant signing for the club this summer. He joins the ranks alongside notable names like Edouard Mendy, Roberto Firmino, Riyad Mahrez, Allan Saint-Maximin, Franck Kessie, Roger Ibanez, and Merih Demiral.

Celta Vigo’s manager, Rafael Benitez, spoke about Veiga’s departure, stating, “Gabri is a player that has shown his capabilities and performed well. The current market situation is favorable for him. The Arab club has presented a financial offer, a scenario we didn’t actively seek, but that’s the reality.”
