JEDDAH — In a strategic move to bolster their squad ahead of the 2025-26 Roshn Saudi League season, Al Ahli has officially signed French international Enzo Millot from VfB Stuttgart on a lucrative three-year contract.
The 23-year-old attacking midfielder, who emerged from Monaco’s prestigious academy, made his first-team debut in 2020 and subsequently transitioned to Stuttgart in August 2021. Since then, he has made a significant impact in the Bundesliga, attracting interest from prominent clubs across Spain, England, and Germany.
In the 2024-25 season, Millot had an impressive footprint in the Bundesliga, making 29 appearances, scoring six goals, and providing five assists. His Champions League performances were equally noteworthy, where he netted two goals and assisted on three occasions in eight appearances, all while maintaining an 85% pass completion rate—among the highest for attacking midfielders in the league.
On the international front, Millot has a rich history, progressing through France’s youth teams and earning eight caps for the Olympic squad, where he scored twice, including a crucial goal in the Paris 2024 Olympic final against Spain.
Al Ahli manager Matthias Jaissle commented on the signing: “We’ve been monitoring Enzo for a considerable time. He possesses exceptional technical skills and tactical intelligence. His experience in the Bundesliga, a league known for its physicality and fast pace, means he will be well-equipped for our demands next season. We eagerly anticipate his integration into the squad.”
After his signing ceremony, Millot took some time to visit Shebara Resort at the scenic Red Sea, a location managed by Al Ahli’s strategic partner, Red Sea Global. Accompanied by family members, he delighted in Saudi hospitality and explored the region’s remarkable marine beauty ahead of reuniting with his new teammates.
Millot is set to join Al Ahli’s training sessions within the next two days, as the team gears up for the preseason program outlined by the coaching staff.
