West Ham's Zouma completes Saudi loan move
Kurt Zouma captained West Ham last season
- Published
West Ham defender Kurt Zouma has completed a move to Saudi Pro League club Al-Orobah on loan.
The 29-year-old captained the Hammers during the 2023-24 season, taking the armband after Declan Rice's departure to Arsenal.
France defender Zouma has made 103 appearances after joining from Chelsea in a 拢29m deal in 2021.
While the Premier League's transfer deadline day was on Friday, the Saudi Arabian window remains open until 7 September.
Earlier this summer, Zouma agreed a move to Shabab Al-Ahli in the United Arab Emirates, but that transfer collapsed when he failed a medical.
However, with a year left on his Hammers contract, the Londoners let him stay in the region to secure another deal and his exit has now been confirmed.
