Paris Saint-Germain confirmed the offer for its player and has given Al-Hilal permission to open negotiations directly with Kylian Mbappe
After missing out on Lionel Messi, Saudi Arabian soccer team Al-Hilal made a record €300-million bid for Kylian Mbappe on Monday, which could see the France striker join Cristiano Ronaldo in the oil-rich kingdom.
The 2018 World Cup winner is in a contract standoff with PSG after his decision not to take up the option of a 12-month extension on his deal. Instead, he plans to walk away as a free agent at the end of the upcoming season when he is widely expected to join Real Madrid. Al-Hilal’s bid would make Mbappe the most expensive soccer player in history, overtaking the $262-million PSG paid for Neymar when the team signed the Brazilian from Barcelona in 2017.
Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante and Roberto Firmino are among the big names to head to Saudi Arabia’s lucrative league after Ronaldo agreed to a deal with Al-Nassr in December.But a host of players have made the move, with more expected to follow before the start of next season. Premier League stars like Riyad Mahrez and Jordan Henderson have been linked with moves.
