At the start of this month, VVV used an option in Mlapa’s loan deal from Dynamo Dresden to sign the striker permanently for a small fee of €500,000.
VVV have now sold Mlapa for a big profit to Al-Attihad, although the actual fee is undisclosed. It is believed to be over €2.5 million.
The 28-year-old scored 15 goals for VVV last season. The club have already signed his replacement in Elia Soriano.
