Al-Hilal have signed Uruguay striker Darwin Nunez from Liverpool on a three-year contract.
The Saudi Pro League side secured a deal worth 53m euros (£46.3m) for the 26-year-old.
He joined Liverpool in June 2022 from Portuguese side Benfica for an initial fee of £64million.
Nunez scored 40 goals in 143 appearances for the Reds but only started eight Premier League games during their title-winning campaign last season.
A Liverpool statement read, “Everybody at the club would like to thank Darwin for his contributions and wish him and his family all the best for the future.”
Nunez has joined the Al-Hilal squad on their pre-season training camp in Germany.
His departure may have an effect on Liverpool’s pursuit of Sweden striker Alexander Isak, with Newcastle having turned down an opening offer of £110million.
Nunez scored on his first Liverpool appearance, in a 3-1 win over Manchester City to claim the 2022 Community Shield, and again on his Premier League debut, but was sent off in his second league game.
A series of minor injuries hindered his chances of holding down a regular starting role during his first season, in which he scored 15 goals from 42 games in all competitions.
His tally increased to 18 from 54 during his second season, but Nunez was used less often after Arne Slot succeeded Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool boss in 2024.
Nunez scored just seven times from 47 appearances last term.
In all, he managed 25 goals from 95 Premier League games for Liverpool, although 46 of those appearances came as a substitute.
