Reggae Boyz Vice Captain Damion Lowe has officially joined the growing list of players making the move to the Saudi Professional League.
The 31-year-old defender signed with Al-Akhdoud on Friday, completing a transfer from Major League Soccer (MLS) outfit Philadelphia Union. Lowe has committed to a two-year deal with the Saudi Pro League team, though the transfer fee remains undisclosed.
Lowe joins a wave of top-tier talent that has recently gravitated towards Saudi Arabia, following in the footsteps of global stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, Karim Benzema, and Sadio Mane. Among his compatriots, Reggae Boyz Demarai Gray and Andre Gray also made similar moves last summer.
Damion looks forward to the journey ahead.
"Playing in the Saudi Pro League is a thrilling new chapter in my career. I’m eager to bring my best to the pitch, embrace the culture, and make an impact both on and off the field. The recent passion for football there is incredible, and I can’t wait to be a part of it," Lowe said.
Al-Akhdoud is a Saudi Arabian football club based in Najran, located in the southern region of the country.
