Karim Benzema has signed a three-year deal with Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad after leaving Real Madrid.
The French striker, 35, called time on his Bernabeu career after 14 years and has reportedly agreed a deal worth around £86million-a-season to join the Jeddah-based Saudi Pro League champions.
AFP reported Benzema's move will be confirmed imminently though Real are set to stage a farewell event for the five-time Champions League winner first.
Al-Ittihad are managed by the former Wolves and Tottenham coach Nuno Espirito Santo and they finished five points clear of Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr in the Saudi title race.
It comes amid a drive by the Saudi authorities to bring in high-calibre players who have played in Champions League or World Cup finals to their top division.
