Malcom, formerly of Corinthians and Barcelona, is the new number 10 for Al-Jazira as he looks to lead the Emirati side.
Movements in the international football market confirm the departure of Malcom from Saudi Arabia’s Al-Hilal to join Al-Jazira, one of the top clubs in the United Arab Emirates. The Brazilian forward, who has played for major European and Brazilian teams, arrives with the mission of becoming the technical reference and the star player for his new club.
At 29 years old, Malcom has signed a long-term contract, keeping him with Al-Jazira through June 2029. He is expected to wear the iconic number 10 jersey and bring his experience and talent to elevate the team’s level in the UAE Pro League and other competitions.
A New Chapter in the UAE
Malcom‘s arrival at Al-Jazira marks a new chapter in the forward’s career. After a successful stint at Al-Hilal, where he won several titles and stood out with impressive stats, the athlete now takes on a leading role in a fresh challenge. The fans and board in the United Arab Emirates expect him to guide the club to major achievements.
The Brazilian has already joined training, and there is a strong possibility he will make his debut this Sunday (23) in a league match against Sharjah. His presence on the pitch could provide a significant boost in morale and technical quality for the squad.
Legacy and Performance at Al-Hilal
During his last three seasons at Al-Hilal, Malcom established himself as one of the most influential players in Arab football. His performance was vital to the team, totaling five titles, 47 goals, and 40 assists in 139 matches. These numbers demonstrate the forward’s ability to decide games and serve as a key piece in the attack.
This season, even before his transfer, Malcom had already left his mark at Al-Hilal, finding the back of the net in a 4-2 victory over Al-Faisaly in the Saudi King’s Cup.
“Malcom’s experience in different leagues and his track record make him a valuable addition. His arrival at Al-Jazira is a clear signal of the club’s ambitions for the season,” comments the M360 Team.
The Challenge of Winning the UAE Pro League
Malcom‘s main goal at Al-Jazira will be to end the club’s six-year drought without a UAE Pro League title. The signing of a player of his caliber reflects the club’s intention to contend for the trophy once again and solidify their position among the country’s elite. The Brazilian’s impact will be crucial for the team’s domestic and international aspirations. Fans are anxiously waiting to see the new number 10 in action, leading the team toward a new era of glory.
