Abha, Aug. 17 (SANA) Newly promoted Saudi Pro League club Abha signed former Chelsea and Belgium striker Michy Batshuayi on a free transfer Monday following his departure from Eintracht Frankfurt.
The 32-year-old joined Frankfurt from Turkish champions Galatasaray in February 2025, scoring four goals in 21 appearances across all competitions.
Abha confirmed the transfer on X with photographs from the signing ceremony, writing: “One chance is all he needs … Michy Batshuayi is Abhawi.”
Batshuayi has represented several European clubs, including Standard Liege, Olympique de Marseille, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Borussia Dortmund, Valencia, Besiktas, Fenerbahce and Galatasaray.
The striker was part of the Belgium squad that finished third at the 2018 World Cup and also competed at the 2022 tournament in Qatar.
Abha began their return to the Saudi top flight with a 2-1 defeat by Al Hazem last week.
