Central defender Eric Bailly has decided to continue his career in Saudi Arabia. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

The 31-year-old Ivorian player accepted the offer from "Al-Nadja" club. This club is one of the newly promoted teams in the top league of Saudi Arabia.

According to journalists Ben Jacobs and Fabrizio Romano, the parties have fully agreed on the terms of cooperation. Now the player just needs to undergo a medical examination and sign the contract.

For the past one and a half years, Eric Bailly played for Spain's "Villarreal" club. He left this team as a free agent at the beginning of July.
