Since joining Al-Hilal, Koulibaly has featured in 111 matches, contributing six goals and five assists. During his tenure, he has helped the club secure three major trophies: the Saudi League, the King’s Cup, and the Super Cup.
The extension underscores Al-Hilal’s confidence in the veteran defender as they look to maintain their dominance in Saudi football.
Koulibaly will be eager to give his best to the Saudi clubs in hopes of adding a few trophies before making a decision on his future when the new deal expires.
