Al-Hilal legend Mohammed Al-Shalhoub to decide future ‘in the coming days’

Al-Hilal legend Mohammed Al-Shalhoub to decide future ‘in the coming days’

Al-Hilal’s veteran midfielder Mohammed Al-Shalhoub says he is undecided about whether to retire or continue playing at his beloved Al-Hilal or at another club next season.
The 37 year-old celebrating his seventh league title in the colors of Al-Hilal with his young daughter Al-Bandari at the end of Al-Za’eem’s 4-1 victory over Al-Fateh that captured a record 15th league title.
Al-Shalhoub has spent his entire playing career at Al-Hilal after making his debut 20 years ago in 1998, however he has made just one start in the league and 11 overall this season. In his one and only start in the league against Al-Qadisiyah last month he scored the winning goal. He is out of contract this summer and could well have played his last game for the Riyadh giants.
“The fact that I was focused in the last period toward the end of the league on winning the championship with Al-Hilal, I did not want to distract my thoughts over the subject of my retirement or any possible new destination if I left Al-Hilal,” he told KSA Sport TV program Al-Barnamig Al-Khaima (The Tent Show).
Al-Shaloub added that he “honestly did not know” when he would retire and only was focusing on finishing the season with a league title for his club and would announce his decision at the end of the campaign. “We will see in the coming days,” Al-Shaloub concluded.
