Al Hilal introduced Jorge Jesus to their fans as he starts his second term as the Portuguese coach of Saudi Arabia’s most successful club. The team also welcomed new signings Kalidou Koulibaly, Ruben Neves, and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic before a friendly match against Kuwait FC.

Neves and Milinkovic-Savic joined Al Hilal after leaving Wolverhampton Wanderers and Lazio, respectively, while Koulibaly departed Chelsea after just one year into his four-year contract. Jorge Jesus previously spent seven months with Al Hilal in his first stint but was dismissed in January 2019. Before returning to Al Hilal, the 68-year-old coached Fenerbahce and led them to their first Turkish Cup victory in nine years.
