Bounou, one of the stars in Morocco's incredible semi-final run at the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, joins Al Hilal on a contract until 2026, and the lanky goalkeeper will wear number 37 for his new club.
The 32-year-old goalkeeper, who is also commonly known as 'Bono', spent the last four seasons with Sevilla in La Liga - having also previously turned out for Girona, Real Zaragoza and Atletico Madrid B.
Standing at 1.95m tall, Bounou is an unsmistakable presence on the pitch and had a stellar Qatar 2022 where he kept four clean sheets from seven matches as Morocco made history by becoming the first African side to reach a FIFA World Cup semi-final.
Bounou was also instrumental in helping Sevilla win their seventh Europa League trophy in the 2022/23 season, saving one penalty in the shootout.
Bounou could potentially make his debut for Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League match against Al Fayha at Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium on Saturday.
