Winter Wishes and Wild Whispers: Could Felix and Yamal Land at Al Hilal?
1 January 2026
Transfer buzz around Al Hilal
Former Al Hilal president Prince Abdulrahman bin Musa says he hopes Portuguese star Joao Felix will join the club.
Speaking on the Al Marmou program on Al Arabiya TV, he noted that Al Hilal's results under Italian coach Simone Inzaghi look good so far.
Yamal on the radar and more
Asked about a global player he would love to see arrive this winter, he replied that Lamine Yamal, Barcelona's prodigy, is a dream but not impossible.
He also recalled the tough decision when he was president: appointing and later firing Sami Al Jaber.
He added that Ruben Neves, Bafetimbi Gomis, and Tiago Neves were among Al Hilal's best signings in the last decade.
For context, the piece notes ongoing scarcity of high-profile moves in the current window, but whispers persist.
Punchline 1: If transfer gossip paid salaries, we’d be living in a penthouse. Punchline 2: The winter window needs a weather forecast—this one promises drama more than a soap opera.
