Karim, welcome to Al-Hilal. How does it feel?

Good, good feelings, I feel good. I’m happy to be here, after my first training with the team, with the coach. I’m so happy and glad to be part of this team.

What do you know about the team?

It’s a great team, with a great history. They won a lot of trophies. It’s like similar, like Real Madrid here in Asia, you know. Everything is good, the fans are good, they play well, they have good players, and they have a good mentality, they have a good process. So I liked this team before, I used to play against them with Madrid, it was not an easy game, it was a good game, so I have good memories, and today I’m happy because now I’m playing for Al-Hilal.

And what is your message to the Al-Hilal fans?

Clear message, you know, my mentality. I have a lot of ambition. I will work, I will give everything in the pitch, I will help this team, and Inshallah bring trophies, because for me it’s more important to bring trophies, and we have, what I said before, good team, good fans, so together, Inshallah, we will do it.
