Jhon Duran has left Aston Villa to join Al-Nassr for a five-year-old deal.
The attacker has written a deal that will hold him at the Saudi Pro League club in a deal to £ 71 million until 2030.
This season Duran scored 12 goals in 29 performances for Villa, including seven goals in the Premier League, with the first four to replace.
In general, he yielded 20 times for Villa in all competitions, including their winner against Bayern Munich in the Champions League earlier this season.
The Colombian joined the Villans at Chicago Fire in January 2023 and had signed a new contract with Villa earlier this season to keep it in the club until 2030.

“Everyone at Aston Villa would like to wish Jhon the best in the next step of his professional career,” the club said in a statement.
The 21-year-old will become a member of new teammates Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane at Al-Nassr, who are currently third in the competition table.
Before he sealed his move to the Saudi Pro League, Duran had been interesting for West Ham in the last two files, although Villa rejected their bids.
Duran's departure leaves Villa with Ollie Watkins as the only recognized striker of the club, although his future has also been the reason for speculation in recent weeks after a reported offer from Arsenal.
