Ghana midfielder Mubarak Wakaso has reached an agreement to join Saudi Arabian club Al Ittihad Jeddah.

The 25-year-old is expected to undergo a medical with the club over the weekend and will sign a contract to complete his move from Rubin Kaza.

Wakaso will become the second Ghanaian to have joined the club barely a week after Sulley Muntari also completed his move to the ambitious Saudi Arabian club.

The former Espanyol man is being signed as an alternative to Kevin-Prince Boateng who failed to reach an agreement with the club.

Wakaso spent last season on loan at Scottish club Celtic.
