It's been clear for some time that Koen Casteels will leave VfL Wolfsburg this summer after nine years with the German Bundesliga club.
Now it appears that the 31-year-old goalkeeper has found a new employer.
According to consistent reports from Saudi Arabia, as reported by Kicker, Casteels is set to join newly promoted Saudi Pro League side Al-Qadisiya FC.
First, however, Casteels will focus on his participation in the European Championship with Belgium.
Al-Qadisiya have a former Bundesliga player in their ranks in former Mainz defender Alexander Hack.
Casteels has been Wolfsburg's first-choice goalkeeper for many years, making a total of 275 appearances for the club.
He has also played for Genk, Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen through his career.
