Former Chelsea executive Michael Emenalo is heading to Saudi Arabia on a lucrative deal.
Emenelo will be the first director of football for the Saudi Pro League, per journalist David Ornstein.
He was linked to the sporting director job at Newcastle United, before they appointed Dan Ashworth.
Now it appears the Saudis, who own Newcastle, have gotten their man for their domestic league.
The Saudi Pro League has made huge moves this summer, securing several top stars from European clubs.
The likes of Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kante, Ruben Neves, Kalidou Koulibaly, Edouard Mendy, and Cristiano Ronaldo will all be Saudi Pro League stars in the coming season.
