Barcelona’s prodigy accepts a several years contract with al-ititihad

Unai Hernández, one of the most brilliant talents of Atlético del Barça, will embark on a new chapter in his career when he joins the Saudi Arabia Al-Ittihad club.

With only 20 years, the midfielder has decided to accept an offer on the side of the Middle East after finding the challenge to go to the first team in Barcelona.

Recent reports indicate that all aspects of the transfer have been completed, marking a significant movement for the young player.

According to the reports, Al-Itihad has made an offer of around 4.5 million euros to ensure the services of Hernández.

Taking into account that his contract with Barça Atlètic would expire at the end of the season, the agreement seems to be mutually beneficial for both the player and the Catalan club.

A long -term contract

It is expected that Hernández undergoes a medical exam in Barcelona before heading to Jeddah, where he will officially end the agreement and will be introduced as an al-Ithad player.

The Saudi media have been closely following the development, with generalized reports that confirm that the final details have been resolved.

This movement is significant not only for Hernández but also for Atlético del Barça, since he has been his outstanding artist this season.

With nine goals and three assists in just 20 appearances, Hernández has been fundamental for the success of the team. His versatility and consistent actions will be lost a lot, and his departure creates a challenging gap so that the side of the reserve is filled.

For the player, the movement represents an opportunity to show his talent in a different scenario, potentially raising his career at new heights. Al-Ithad’s investment in young talents highlights its ambition and the growing charm of Saudi football.
