Cymru Premier striker signs for Saudi Pro League outfit

A Cymru Premier Striker has made a surprise move to the Saudi Pro League.

Brad Young finished as the Welsh top flight’s leading scorer with 22 goals for champions The New Saints last season.

The 21-year-old also scored on his European debut as Craig Harrison’s side reached the Europa Conference group stage.

But Young, whose career began in Aston Villa’s youth ranks, is now set to ply his trade in a different setting after agreeing to join Al-Orobah.

His move to the Saudi newcomers is understood to be a club-record fee for TNS, who clinched a league and cup double last term.
