The 30-year-old midfielder has penned a two-year contract with the Saudi Arabian outfit where he will link up with ex-Palermo boss Walter Zenga who was announced as Al-Nassr manager earlier in the week.

A spokesperson for Al-Nassr said: "This is a contract worth two million Euros and over a two-year term."

Bresciano, who is available on a free transfer with his contract at Palermo due to expire this off-season, is understood to have flown to Saudi Arabia earlier this week to sign a pre-contract.

The Riyadh-based club had previously announced they will have a major squad and coaching re-shuffle during the off-season and the arrival of Zenga and Bresciano this week is only the beginning.

Al-Nassr were trophy-less last term, although they have qualified for the 2011 AFC Champions League after finishing third in the Saudi Professional League.

Bresciano, who hasn't played for Palermo since mid-February due to a back problem, can look forward to linking up with Zenga whom he was a regular under during his time at the Renzo Barbera.
