Saudi Pro League done deals: Every 2023/24 summer transfer

- Neymar, Kalidou Koulibaly, Ruben Neves and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic join Al Hilal
- Roberto Firmino, Riyad Mahrez and Allan Saint-Maximin among signings at Al Ahli
The Saudi Pro League is making major headlines this summer with a number of clubs eyeing big-money deals for some of Europe's elite.
Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival at Al Nassr proved to be something of a trend-setter as stars like Karim Benzema and N'Golo Kante have now swapped top level football for the payday available in the Middle East, where a World Cup could be held again soon after the controversial 2022 showpiece in Qatar.
Here are the 2023 summer done deals for the four major Saudi Pro League sides - Al Ahli, Al Hilal, Al Ittihad and Al Nassr - with some bonus balls thrown in for good measure.
