Tijjani Reijnders ‘to join’ Al-Qadisiyya in €61m move from Manchester City | OneFootball

According to The Atletic, Manchester City have agreed a €61m deal to sell Tijjani Reijnders to Al-Qadisiyya. The Netherlands midfielder, 28, is set to leave the Premier League after one season in Manchester.

He joined City last season from AC Milan. The arrival of Elliot Anderson for a record €135m has accelerated his exit.

Reijnders made 50 appearances for City, scoring 7 and supplying 8 assists. He has 35 caps and 7 goals for the Netherlands, who went out to Morocco at the World Cup after a 1-1 draw and a 2-3 shootout.

Al-Qadisiyya finished fourth in the Saudi Pro League last season. Their attack includes Italy’s Mateo Retegui and Julian Quiñones, who impressed with Mexico at the World Cup.

City’s midfield is set for major change this summer, with Reijnders poised to depart for Saudi Arabia.
