Riyadh powerhouse Hilal will face Spanish giants Valencia in a testimonial match for former Saudi Arabia captain Yousef Al-Thenyan on Wednesday.

Valencia’s contingent arrived in Riyadh on Tuesday morning and was taken in a tour around the club.

Al-Thenyan, named by fans as the “philosopher”, participated with Saudi national team in the 1994 and 1998 World Cups and won a host of local and continental titles with Hilal.
