    Diriyah sign Darwin Nunez, Millot and Boulbina in triple swoop

    RIYADH — Roshn Saudi League newcomers Diriyah Club strengthened their squad with three major signings, bringing in Darwin Nunez, Enzo Millot and Adil Boulbina as they prepare for their first season in the Saudi top flight.

    Nunez joins on loan from Al Hilal, while Millot arrives on a temporary deal from Al Ahli. Algeria international Boulbina has completed a permanent transfer from Qatar’s Al Duhail.

    The move gives Nunez, 27, a fresh opportunity in the RSL following his first season with Al Hilal after joining the Riyadh club in a high-profile transfer from English Premier League side Liverpool.

    The Uruguay international, who featured at the 2026 FIFA World Cup this summer, made 24 appearances across all competitions for Al Hilal, scoring nine goals and providing five assists.

    He will now form part of a revamped Diriyah attack alongside Millot, who moves across the Kingdom after an impressive campaign with Al Ahli.

    The 24-year-old former Stuttgart midfielder made 40 appearances for the Jeddah club last season, contributing nine goals and seven assists.

    Millot was also part of an Al Ahli side that lifted the Saudi Super Cup and AFC Champions League Elite titles.

    Boulbina, meanwhile, arrives following a productive season with Al Duhail. The 23-year-old winger registered 20 goal contributions in 32 appearances, scoring 13 times, and was part of Algeria’s squad at this summer’s World Cup.

    The three additions represent a significant reinforcement of Diriyah’s attacking options as the newly promoted club looks to establish itself in the RSL under former Wolverhampton Wanderers and Benfica coach Bruno Lage.

    Diriyah began their 2026-27 league campaign with a narrow 1-0 defeat to Al Ahli before responding with their first top-flight victory, beating Al Hazem 1-0 on Friday.
