Al-Hilal gives Gomis 2-year contract extension

LONDON: Al-Hilal handed the Saudi Pro League’s leading goal-scorer Bafetimbi Gomis a two-year contract extension on Friday, in what could be the most significant deal of the 2019-20 season so far.
 
The French forward has terrorized defenses in Saudi Arabia and Asia since signing for Al-Hilal from Turkish giants Galatasaray in 2018 for a transfer fee of €7 million ($8 million).
 
It has been money well spent on a player who has been one of the most successful foreign signings in the league’s history.
