Al Hilal on Sunday presented Jorge Jesus to fans as the Portuguese coach begins his second spell in charge of Saudi Arabia's most successful club.

New signings Kalidou Koulibaly, Ruben Neves and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic were also welcomed by supporters ahead of a friendly against Kuwait FC.

Midfielders Neves and Milinkovic-Savic have joined the Riyadh outfit after leaving Wolverhampton Wanderers and Lazio, respectively.

Senegalese defender Koulibaly departed Chelsea just a year into a four-year contract.

Jesus lasted seven months at Al Hilal in his first spell, being dismissed in January 2019.

The 68-year-old was most recently at Fenerbahce, guiding the Turkish club to their first trophy (the Turkish Cup) in nine years.
