Annual salary of 5 million euros! The old Chinese Super League player moved to the Saudi Second League: they gave me everything I wanted
On July 14, Beijing time, Khubaye Cudisiya (Saudi Arabia League II team) officially announced that Senegalese striker Mbaye Diagne officially joined the team and signed a 2-year contract. Prior to that, Diagne played for Tianjin TEDA in the Chinese Super League for two seasons.
Diagne signs
Last summer, Diagne left Galatasaray to sign a one-year contract with another Turkish Premier League team, Fatih Karaguluk. Under manager Pirlo, he teamed up with captain Jose Borini and scored 23 league goals throughout the season, second highest in the top scorers list (first being Ecuador's Enna Valencia).

At the end of the season, Pirlo took Borini to Sampdoria to play, and Diagne, whose contract expired, also decided to change the environment. In the end, the Senegalese striker signed with Jubail Cudisia: "To sign me, the club gave everything, everything I wanted, they also gave me, and it makes me happy and proud to sign with Jubail Cudisia. This is one of the most important clubs in the history of Saudi football. ”
Diagne and Fowler
According to Turkish journalist Eltan Suzgon, Diagne signed a 2-year contract with Khubayr Cudisya with an annual salary of 5 million euros (there is also a saying that the annual salary is 7.5 million euros). Compared to his peak in the Turkish Premier League (Diagne earned €2.3 million a year in Galatasaray), his income has improved significantly.
Diagne embraces new teammates
Prior to Diagne's arrival, Hubyr Cudisia also signed England youngster Robbie Fowler (a Liverpool legend) and English midfielder Max Ball. From the perspective of the squad team, the team has entered the first group of the league and is fully capable of competing for a promotion place.
