Saudi Pro League newcomer Al Qadsiah has reached an agreement to sign Italy striker Mateo Retegui from Atalanta in a deal valued at about €67 million, including add-ons, according to multiple reports. The 26-year-old has accepted a long-term contract that will pay him more than six times the salary he earned in Serie A, with French daily L’Équipe putting the annual figure near €20 million. Retegui joined Atalanta only last summer for €21 million and scored 28 goals in all competitions last season, prompting interest from the Gulf state. His arrival coincides with the exit of former Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who will leave Al Qadsiah as a free agent. The move underlines the continued spending power of Saudi clubs as they seek to raise the profile of their domestic league.
