Omar Mascarell, 33, is expected to become a new player for Al-Khaleej following a negotiation that was concluded quickly. The Saudi club advanced discussions last Tuesday, finalizing the agreement within hours, which did not allow time for a counteroffer. Mascarell, whose contract with Mallorca expired this summer, had several alternatives. He had been free to negotiate since January, a period during which Atlético Mineiro from Brazil showed interest in the winter, but Mallorca retained him. Teams from LaLiga also monitored his situation. Al-Khaleej presented a proposal that was significant both economically and in its sporting project, as they sought to add experience and leadership to their midfield. The player is expected to travel to Saudi Arabia this weekend. The Equatorial Guinea international has 14 caps for his country. In the 2025/2026 LaLiga season, Mascarell made 30 appearances, scoring 2 goals and providing 2 assists. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €700k.
