RSL linked with Al-Hilal midfielder Gustavo Cuellar

It’s silly season!

And maybe silly season has blessed us with an accurate rumor, but this is a particularly interesting one. Fabrizio Romano, an Italian journalist, has dropped this rumor in our lap: RSL is linked with Gustavo Cuellar, a Colombian midfielder playing at Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal.

Cuellar, 29, is a defensive midfielder by trade, and he’s been playing with the Colombian national team since 2015 (with the majority of his caps coming in the last year), and he’s been at Al-Hilal since 2019.

MLS side Real Salt Lake are close to completing a deal with Al-Hilal for Colombian Gustavo Cuellar.
