According to reports in France, the transfer is a loan with option to buy at the end of the season.
The option is believed to be worth circa β¬2-3m.
Roma had been in advanced negotiations to send Abdulhamid to Toulouse FC instead, but they could not make the squad work with non-EU slots.
He became the first ever Saudi Arabian player to feature in Serie A.
