A new big shot has arrived in Saudi Arabia.
Saudi club Al-Kadisiya announced the recruitment of Matteo Letegi on its official channel on the 22nd (Korea time). Italian Serie A club Atalanta also announced Letegi's transfer to Al-Kadissiya on its official website. Atalanta had his best career season with his best performance, Matteo Lettegui, acquired from Genoa in early August 2024. The same was true not only for the scoring record but also for the overall performance. A year later, he chose a new challenge and moved to Saudi professional league club al-Kadisiya.
Saudi has completed another shocking recruit. Retegi, born in 1999, is a player who grew up with the prestigious Boca Juniors in Argentina. However, at Boca Juniors, he moved around on a lease without being able to establish himself for sure. Letege, who had burst potential after leaving on loan to C.A. Tigre in the 2022-2023 season, succeeded in advancing to Europe when he moved to Italian club Genoa a year later.

Retegi's growth did not stop. Retegi, who also adapted to the Italian stage immediately, had a good season in his debut season in Genoa, scoring nine goals and three assists in 31 games. When Letteggi showed his potential, Atalanta moved immediately and Letteggi succeeded in entering a big club a year after entering Italy.
The transfer to Atalanta was a decision that changed Letegi's life. Leteggie showed a crazy performance as soon as he made his debut and showed off his scoring ability. I had the best season of my life, making 25 goals and 8 assists in 36 league games. Won the Italian league's top scorer.

Retegi's outstanding performance raised the possibility of a transfer to a bigger big club than Atalanta, but Retegi chose money. After al-Kadishya offered a huge transfer fee and salary, Letegy decided to move to al-Kadishya. Although he is at an age where he can dream of more ambition, money seems to have been important to Letegi.
Al-Kadissiya signed Letegy in a surprise move as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang decided to leave the team and needed a new striker. Al-Kadisiya invested a whopping 68.25 million euros (about 110.3 billion won). Al-Kadishya is now a Saudi club that is gradually gaining prominence. He has no experience of winning the first division.
