Watkins joins Saudi side Al Hilal from Villa

England international Ollie Watkins has completed a move from Aston Villa to Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal, becoming the latest in a series of high-profile departures from Villa this summer, following Morgan Rogers, Youri Tielemans, Lucas Digne, and Ezri Konsa. Watkins spent six seasons at Aston Villa, during which he scored in a famous 7-2 win against Liverpool and helped the club return to European football including Champions League nights. He posted an emotional farewell on Instagram, expressing gratitude to the club while acknowledging his exit was not how he had imagined his time there would end.
