"We have agreed a deal with Saudi Pro League side Al Shabab Club for the transfer of Ivan Rakitic, who will bring his second spell with us to a close," read a statement from Sevilla.

"Rakitic returned in the summer of 2020 after leaving FC Barcelona, the club we sold him to in July 2014 after originally signing the Croatian in January 2011.

"Rakitic, vice-captain of the squad until now, is the player with the second most official appearances in the current squad, after Jesus Navas. He has played a total of 323 games, scoring 51 goals and providing 63 assists."
