The 27-year old held talks with the club from the UAE last week and is waiting for Al Shabab and Utrecht to work out the last few details before sealing the transfer. Boymans underwent a medical on Monday and has agreed to a three-year deal.
Boymans will join fellow Dutchmen Fred Rutten at the club, with the former Feyenoord and Vitesse coach taking charge of Al Shabab recently.
The striker joined Utrecht from AZ in 2014, but injuries have limited his playing time over the past two seasons. In 24 league appearances for Utrecht, Boymans scored 19 times.
