Camara off to Saudi

The former Liverpool player, has failed to cement a permanent place in the Hammers side, making only 11 Premiership appearances following a £2.2million move to Upton Park in December 2000.

"I came here searching for a new challenge. I am aware Al-Ittihad boast a reservoir of talented strikers up front, but am also sure of my own capabilities," said Camara.

"I have vast experience to put at the disposal of the side when needed."
