AL-ITTIHAD have revealed the signing of Fabinho in the most bonkers announced video ever with the star holding a chained tiger.

The Liverpool star has joined the Saudi team in a contract worth up to £40 million, and he will receive a whopping £425,000 per week until 2026 as compensation.

Fabinho has become the subject of one of the most bizarre announcement videos of all time

The most recent celebrity to relocate to the Middle East is Fabinho, 29.

He will play with players like Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante, Jota, a former Celtic star, and Ahmed Hegazi, a former West Brom defender, after moving to Al-Ittihad.

The most strange part of his introduction video, though, is when he seems chained up and carrying a tiger, a reference to the club’s name.

Additionally, the opening news footage of the movie seemed to be making fun of him and suggested that his strategy might have failed due to his dogs.

Although they were prohibited in the nation, the Brazilian has two French bulldogs; nonetheless, it now seems that a solution has been found.

At the end of the video, it cuts to Fabinho, who says: “I am tiger.”

And fans have been left perplexed by the announcement on social media.

One Tweeted: “What’s with the tiger? Have we sold Fabinho to the circus?”

A second commented: “Fabinho casually standing next to a tiger in his announcement video for Al-Ittithad.”

A third wrote: “Fabinho has signed for Al-Ittihad, but the real story here… what in the tiger is going on?”

A fourth said: “If that’s a real tiger the Saudis are getting me to hold and I am Fabinho I am telling them they need to add a couple more zeros to those weekly wages.”

While a fifth joked: “Fabinho taking a tiger for a stroll wasn’t something I expected to see today but here we are.”

Fabinho has also joined Jordan Henderson in swapping Liverpool for Saudi – with the Reds undergoing an unexpected midfield overhaul after receiving lucrative offers from the Saudi League.
