Al-Hilal and Yassine Bounou
Saturday
Al-Hilal have reportedly decided not to sell Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou after reconsidering plans to reshape their foreign-player group. Club officials concluded their existing alternatives were not strong enough to replace him ahead of a demanding new season.
Bounou had been linked with a summer departure, but technical concerns changed the club’s position. Al-Hilal now view his experience and reliability in major matches as more valuable than the squad flexibility that would have come from moving him on.
