Italian coach Simone Inzaghi has been appointed head coach of Al Hilal, the Saudi Arabian Pro League club announced on Thursday.
Inzaghi, 49, signed a two-year contract with the Riyadh-based club after recently parting ways with Inter Milan, where he had been in charge since 2021.
During his tenure at Inter, Inzaghi won one Serie A title and guided the club to multiple domestic trophies. However, his final season ended on a sour note with a heavy 5-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League final.
Al Hilal will participate in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, which kicks off on June 15.
