Polish goalkeeper Marcin Bułka linked to Al‑Hilal transfer

Marcin Bułka, a 26‑year‑old Polish goalkeeper, moved from Ligue 1 side Nice to Saudi Pro League newcomers Neom SC last summer. A serious knee injury early in the season limited him to just six league appearances, after which he missed eight months before returning in late April and playing a match in the 30th round.

Having recovered and resumed international duties with Poland, Bułka is now reported to be negotiating a move to Al‑Hilal, the Saudi Arabian club that finished second in the league. Al‑Hilal, coached by Simone Inzaghi, boasts a star‑studded roster including Karim Benzema, Darwin Núñez and Theo Hernández. The goalkeeper could replace Yassine Bounou, who is expected to leave. Bułka’s contract with Neom runs until June 2029 with a salary of €10 million per year, and the potential transfer would be a high‑profile move within the Saudi league.
