OFFICIAL: Former Barcelona winger joins Al-Orobah

Former Barcelona and Real Betis winger Cristian Tello has joined newly-promoted Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Orobah on a free transfer.

Tello has been part of Saudi football since January of last year after moving to Al-Fateh from MLS side Los Angeles FC.

The Spaniard spent a total of 18 months at Al-Fateh under former manager Slaven Bilic before his contract expired in the summer.

As a result, Al-Orobah opted to sign the 33-year-old on a two-year contract as they try to rebuild their squad for their top-flight campaign.

The club have already secured deals for a number of players led by Burnley winger Jóhann Berg Guðmundsson and ex-Fulham midfielder Jean Michael Seri.

In addition, they are also expected to announce the signing of Kurt Zouma from West Ham in the next few hours.
